Let’s win it for Oz and break the day game curse.

What’s the word on Ozzie?

 

[Hudson2]

What’s the word on Ozzie?

Done for the regular season and could play if we make a deep playoff run.

 

[Enscheff]

Will he continue to slide into every base hands first, or are braves players completely incapable of learning?

They all do it. Not sure if there is any study showing it is faster. I know diving is the new cool thing but we have seen enough hand injuries to show feet first is better. Plus Acuna is always getting that knee blocking his slide. A few spiked legs would stop that pretty quick.

Was he wearing the oven mitt thing?

 

[bravesfanMatt]

Was he wearing the oven mitt thing?

I think on one hand. Not the right

 

[Hulavol]

Expecting some fireworks today -
Acuna bomb
Harris bomb
Riley bomb
And believe it or not, expecting TWO Olson bombs.

 

[Hulavol]

Damn Strider. Throw strikes please.

 

[USMA76]

Our track record shows the answer as "B."

 

[USMA76]

Damn Strider. Throw strikes please.

Wonder if there's something amiss in the configuration of the mound or if it's just in Strider's head?

 

[CyYoung31]

Chip seriously went into his homerun voice on a pop up that barely passed the infield.

 

[UNCBlue012]

This dude’s FB sits 90 and 91? Oh yeah, seven no-run innings incoming

 

[UNCBlue012]

Dansby and Austin both got straight as hell 90-MPH fastballs down the middle for first-pitch outs

 

[CyYoung31]

This dude’s FB sits 90 and 91? Oh yeah, seven no-hit innings incoming

FTFY.

 

[Hulavol]

Strider, throw strikes please.

 

[UNCBlue012]

That’s a horrendous walk to one of the worst hitters in baseball. Get it together, Spencer.

 

[CyYoung31]

Grissom is really slow at turning the DP.

 

[Enscheff]

So today would have been a great time to rest Olson. Unfortunately Snit is incapable of intelligently utilizing roster flexibility.
