[Bj1133]

Gotta get another run or two of their pen!

 

[Julio3000]

You know you're a Braves fan when your heart dropped because you were expecting Avilan to either throw Simmons wide, or Simmons to make an errant throw to Fredito.

100% expecting Avilan to throw a rocket about 15 feet to Tron's right.

 

[Dalyn]

**** ME

I guess Keith finally figured out how many thanks were needed to get you to offer.

Yep. It's one of those the play flashed in my imagination before he even threw it.

 

[jcc03004]

Can't wait for Julio to pitch

 

[thethe]

If Freddi was smart Kimbrel would be pitching the 8th inning here.

 

[NYCBrave]

I could not even believe he was going for it. I was expecting him to look at the runner at 3rd or go home or go to first. Can't believe under that pressure he had the state of mind to go for 2.

 

[Braves1976]

walden, downs and loe are worse right now

I was speaking of relievers on our playoff roster and Walden is still better than Ayala if healthy. Same for Downs but again he's not on our playoff roster.

 

[Five]

If Freddi was smart Kimbrel would be pitching the 8th inning here.

I'd do it and wouldn't think twice.

I agree. But assuming a 1-2-3 that means you still get Puig and Uribe for the 9th.

 

[nsacpi]

Carpenter ?

Yeah. Two righties due up to start the 8th.

Avilan is not brain dead yet. Though his arm may be another story.

It looked like he sort of hesitated, too, so I was shocked we were still able to complete the DP.

 

[BlackwaterPark]

Come on Brian, dont suck and no grounders

 

[The Tariff King]

Please Fredi remove Gattis from the outfield next inning. He wouldn't be due up to hit until the 9th.

 

[thethe]

I agree. But assuming a 1-2-3 that means you still get Puig and Uribe for the 9th.

I don't care. Then you let Kimbrel pitch to one more batter. There is no way anyone should be pitching next inning but Kimbrel unless we put some mroe runs on the board.

 

[BlackwaterPark]

That was right down the middle..

 

[Mrs. Meta]

Ohman that 3-1 pitch.
