I see that a lot of people thinking that Alonso is saying “throw it again!” But what he’s actually saying is, “the New York Mets haven’t won a World Series in 37 years. We are irrelevant.”

yesterday acquired LHP Richard Lovelady from the Kansas City Royals in exchange for cash considerations, and optioned him to Triple-A Gwinnett.
Imagine saying “AJ Minter will be the game 5 starter for the Braves in the 2020 NLCS with a chance to go to the World Series” in August of last year. People would lose their minds
Braves fans need to face the fact that the Braves have a bottom 10 farm system (possibly even bottom 5) and really don’t have the assets to make a big splash trade unless they want to give up talent at the major league level. Soto isn’t happening and likely neither is Ohtani
Can’t have Marcel miss time with a hand injury. Not because his production isn’t replaceable but more because we know what he does when he misses time with a hand injury
I wonder if there has ever been a team that let their oft-injured, defensive star SS walk in free agency and replace then with a mostly unproven younger player and won the World Series
I love making fun of the rivals. But it’s straight up pathetic and not even going to be close this year. The Braves have played as bad as they possibly can, injured as hell, and still 5 games clear
The NL East was over March 31st
What a great play by Olson to drop that ball to give strider the opportunity to break the atlanta record for K’s in a game. True leadership right there
Let’s end this stupid debate

It’s amazing what happens when you don’t use counting stats for a guy that missed an entire month!
Let's end this stupid debate

Orlando Arcia

10 2Bs

Francisco lindor of coarse clears
Braves fans are so delusional 🤦♂️
It’s just such a grand gesture by the Braves to deliberately have a seemingly mediocre season just to have a 44-44 record in honor of Hank Aaron. Classy organization
Heres a pathetic reality. You can FLY to Atlanta, get 2 tickets to the game, & fly back to Philly Saturday night $200 CHEAPER than if you just wanted to stay in Philly for
#RedOctober
& get 2 tickets for game 3
Round trip airfare $306
Tickets $250
Total $556
Game 3 tickets $753

Arcia deserves it just as much as the next guy. You look at the SS in the NL and literally no one is putting up numbers. Arcia has been great even if he has missed 3-4 weeks dude is playin great and Lindor is hitting .220 with a .300 obp like I could probably do that…
I don’t know who this woman is that is in the booth or how many baseball games she has called in her career, but by my calculations, she is easily a 10 times better broadcaster than Chip Caray will ever be
Braves twitter is gonna cry so hard if the Braves dont sign Donaldson.
Braves twitter is gonna cry so hard if the Braves sign Donaldson for 4 years.
There is literally no winning lol
Braves’ fans reactions summarized:
*bullpen gives up a run: BULLPEN BLEW IT! SIGN KIMBREL
*Donaldson strikes out: WASTE OF MONEY. TRADE HIM
*starter gives up 5 runs: TRADE FOR BUMMGARNER
*braves lose but none of the above occur: THIS IS ON SNIT. FIRE HIM
Keuchel and Teheran threw the exact same amount of innings and allowed the same amount of runs to the same team. Only difference is Teheran allowed 2 fewer base runners. But yes, Julio sucks and Keuchel is our number 2 starter
