GDT 8/2: Anaheim get away, get away. Chirinos starts!

[CrazyTrain]

I can't believe how good this offense is. Just ridiculous.

Grissom time

It seems like McHugh has been getting shelled lately.

 

[thewupk]

Guys are pressing. They're trying to force something to happen.

They forced 12 runs across the plate

 

[chop2chip]

McHugh seems destined for a nice 3 week sabbatical on the IL

Should have been a scoreless inning

Acuna back over 1000 OPS

 

[TURBO]

 

[Heyward]

Nice dub, nice series. Tough road trip coming up.

 

[thewupk]

Acuna with an 11.9 to 12.1 BB/K rate. And he's just 25....

Braves are now tied with their season high 32 games over .500 mark. They are now 9-9 since first achieving the mark.

 

[Hulavol]

5-1 home stand against two potential playoff teams.

And a whole lotta help on the way…

now it is time to show the Cubbies they also screwed up by 'going for it' too soon.

Would love a sweep just for this reason. Unfortunately, Braves get their best 2 starters in Steele and Stroman

Neither has been great lately. Stroman has given up 17 ER in his past 10 IP. Ouch.

We're gonna show Stroman who has the bigger *****

I am more worried about the Giants than I am the Cubs and Pirates

Have the Cubs announced starters? Steele just pitched yesterday so that’s surprising.

I’m seeing Hendricks, Stroman and Steele

Yesterday was Tuesday, he'd be on scheduled rest for Sunday if he went on Tuesday.
