SUNDAY Sept. 16 vs Nats (Newcomb on hill)

[TheBravos]

Maybe we should ask if we can just play everyone on the road?

well losing these games would ensure we start the NLDS on the road

 

[Braves1976]

whew, he only gave up one thanks to a lineout and a K looking. I hope he doesn't pitch another inning as it could've easily been 6-4 there. But stays 6-2. 6 more outs to go.

I don't think you can start both Teheran and Newcomb in a playoff series. Teheran is risky and Newcomb at this point, you just can't. If Teheran starts you could get 5-6 innings with 2-3 ER or he could be so bad he has to leave early.

Leave Newk off PS roster. Have Julio, Folty, Sanchez and Gausman for 3 starts. Newk, IMO, wouldn't be a good BP choice.

 

[Braves1976]

Braves are the road warriors who not so good at home, defense at home hasnt been as good either

Yea, no use carrying Newk if not in rotation.

What the heck is RF doing pinch hitting! That was a damn gift out, no excuse using RF there with better options. I hate snit!

Haven't all the other LH PH been used?? Ruiz, Duda, Tucker

Then use a RH

 

[Braves1976]

snit is going to let Duvall rot on the bench and he will be useless to carry in playoffs

 

[Braves1976]

Then use a RH

exactly, Duvall needs abs if he is to ever get going

 

[Chipper]

After today we'll be 1-2 over the last 3 games. We'll be in 2nd place after the 4 game series against the Phillies next weekend!

 

[salmagundy]

When Soto wins ROY this year, he needs to give Roark and Hellickson and his BP much thanks for them holding Acuna way down.

 

[Braves1976]

RF should always be the last PH used and when no one else is left, shoot I think Gausman or Teheran might give us a better AB than him.

Dude seriously....It’s fair to say that Duvall has had ample opportunities to not suck....and the only thing he’s succeeded at while with us is sucking.

 

[Braves1976]

Sobotka is good other than when his control is off

 

[thewupk]

charlie clutch!

 

[Braves1976]

That one isn't foul boys, he pulled the other one against Roark but got 'em this time!

 

[Braves1976]

oh well, now up to swanson, ph and Acuna in 9th. Hopefully someone can get on in front of Acuna and then Acuna walks us off.

need to keep it 5-4 first

 

[Braves1976]

Oh no, Marlins trying to blow it with two outs in 9th. Hoskins can tie it if he homers. 6-4
