Up 3 on the Mets with 31 games to go. Still think it comes down to the next to the last series of the year agaisnt the Mets.

 

[Slippyjms]

23-16

Braves win

Whit Merrifield bitches

 

[Carp]

The .387 BABIP isn't going to last for Whit, but it's nice to his hard hit rate and LD% are at career highs with us. The 16% BB rate is also very nice. He will crash eventually, but hopefully not until next season.

We need a lead of 4 games or more by then.

He's at .246 for the season, so he's still no where close to his career avg - .317

 

[Heyward]

Wonder how much the Phils wish they hadn't let him go?

He wasnt working out with them. It was best for both sides to part ways.

Fun fact: The Braves are 45-33 against teams over .500. That’s the best in the NL by a wide margin and second overall to only the league-leading Yankees (47-30).

The fact that he was absolute ass for the Phillies, got released and then became prime Tony Gwynn for Atlanta is amazing. All I care about lmao

Well yeah when he came here he was batting under .200 so I think we are seeing that positive regression. Although his Braves BABIP is only .333… not sure what Carp is reading.

With his speed that’s not too crazy of a BABIP… he’s had a number of infield hits

Edit: huh? His BABIP with the Braves is .333 and .246 for the year.

 

[thewupk]

Merrifield and Laurano having an 800+ OPS since coming to Atlanta has really help stabilize the lineup.

A sentence I would have never expected to read. LOL

 

[Nerfherders]

A win while allowing 4+ runs. 9-49 on the season now.

I show his BABIP as .387 on BR.
