Which regional did that put them in?

After being released, a lot of fish die, but a lot of them live also.


Home, close to the beach, with the rest of the non-conference champion mid majors. Thanks for letting us play though. Cant say that for the rest of the @/&&!/$.

and will you take your coach back please? not happy about the extension. Little premature for my sake…

BTT

Bravos getting some serious allstar game attention.

Pea Pod… can you imagine if Kemp was still in left? Best outfield in baseball?

4 Bravos going to Washington. How about that?

Folty roughed last night after some strong early innings. I blame Snitcker for not pulling him. He should be an automatic pull after 5

.5 games back at the break. I think we may be going places this year, really like the team chemistry.

GO Braves!

Baby Braves still hanging in there. Finally won in extra innings …

johnny venters ?

2 pitches
2 homers

Acuna Jr is giving me flashbacks of Andruw Jones, that kid is on fire-

GO Braves!

they were making Willy Mays comparisons last night. I thought that was a stretch, but the kid is exciting for sure.

I like how Snitcker is giving guys days off and using the bench. And how the GM picked up bench and pitching support in trades. Gausman from the Orioles is a great acquistion.

Got my tickets for the season ending home stand with the Phillies. If things continue, should be exciting.

Really bush move by Marlins pitcher…

That was crap for sure

Total bush league move for sure, luckily x-rays are negative. The bench is really firming up, Charlie Culberson was on fire last night. Gausman is the pitching we needed.

That Phillies series is looking like the hottest Braves series in quite a while.

Go Braves!

Also, CT scan came back normal.

ChopOn has him leading off in tonights lineup.

This will probably be an unpopular question, but why was the coach, and not his teammates, the first one out of the dugout to come to his defense? All of the “insiders” and talking heads are saying the rumor was going around that they were going to throw at him so you’d think the team leaders (like Freeman) would’ve been a little quicker to respond. I’m talking about, up on the steps and ready to go if this goes down. Watching the video, the Head Coach was the first one up the steps out of the dug out and then other players starting filing out like “I guess we should go out here since coach came out.” I know the kid is just a rookie and I get the whole “welcome to the big leagues, Rookie” thing but he’s on pace to be the Rookie of the Year and he’s been an integral part for the Braves. Just my opinion but I was disappointed by the lack of urgency and support shown by his teammates.

“…be a man and PM me.”

Not sure, but since when is it ok to plunk a guy just because he is playing well. I can see if he showboated or something and maybe he did and I just missed it. I will never really understand how you can throw something close to 100 miles an hour at a person and not be charged with assault in a game or not, just seems a little off to me.

I agree but it’s been a part of the game since its inception. I know that doesn’t make it right but it’s an accepted practice in baseball.

“…be a man and PM me.”

It was cool hearing Andruw Jones in the booth last night talking about Acuna Jr. Lots of potential.

bangstick: I couldn’t agree more, they should have been ready to light that guy up. Ol Snitker shouldn’t be the one leading that charge-

I’m glad I wasn’t the only person able to see through the homer koolaid to notice that.

What do you think they should have done?Run out there with bats and be up on man slaughter charges.It’s one of those things you can’t do anything about,unfortunately.Now if the batter could get out there and do something,he might get off.:imp:
