GDT - 9.26: Game 2, Chicago Dansby's at Bravos

[bravesfanMatt]

Same old same old. Elder is cooked.

 

[msstate7]

Has anyone chased that 0-0 low and outside slider?

 

[msstate7]

Ronald is a horrible RF with a great arm

 

[mfree80]

Walks will kill you

 

[UNCBlue012]

I’m so ****ing sick of every damn starting pitcher doing this. It’s been nearly every game for a month. It’s been against good teams and bad teams. Get your **** together.

 

[bravesfanMatt]

Y’all crack me up defending this garbage with bad luck and bad umpires. He is done. Pitched way more than he ever has. Like I said winans is more trustworthy.

 

[msstate7]

Pull elder and sit him till next next year. If his weak ass is too scared to throw strikes, we can pitch him next week anyway

 

[USMA76]

All Star or not, performances like this make it hard to take Elder seriously.

 

[Garmel]

Has anyone chased that 0-0 low and outside slider?

For a control guy he has so many pitches that are uncompetitive.

 

[bravesnumberone]

Limping to the finish line.

 

[UNCBlue012]

I’m not a pitcher so I know it doesn’t matter, but I just do not understand how he knows the walks are killing him and he keeps throwing balls. It’s insanely bad baseball.

 

[msstate7]

Who's starting tomorrow and Wednesday?

 

[bravesfanforlife88]

This ladies and gentlemen is our game three starting pitcher.

 

[UNCBlue012]

I’m absolutely concerned about the state of the Braves’ rotation, but I do think the lack of execution is mainly the players being checked out until October 7. It’s a terrible excuse, but one I feel pretty good about. They’re extremely relaxed right now.

 

[bravesfanMatt]

When is cheerios back? He needs a start in the postseason

I don't know. I think they turned it off in Miami, and the spigot broke... can't turn it back on. I'd be shocked if this team sees the WS

 

[UNCBlue012]

I think Justin Steele is a great pitcher, but I cannot believe we haven’t smashed his stuff tonight. He’s been horrendously off, throwing 89-MPH fastballs down the middle lol

I don’t think it works that way, honestly. But, it’s been a concern regardless.

I certainly wasn’t defending that inning… but the second inning had nothing to do with how he was pitching

NLDS...
Game 1: Fried goes 5 ip (can't go farther bc of layoff). He leaves with lead, but pen blows it.

Game 2: strider gets a win

Game 3: braves get blown out

Game 4: see game 1

Braves bow out, again in NLDS 3-1
