I don't live in GA any more but loved the all star game being there. I was looking forward to Ronald in the HR derby possibly and there is no reason to move it. The Braves organization and fans had nothing to do with those laws and MLB just gave them a giant Middle finger. I bet they don't play the chop either over the speakers at the home opener (hope I'm wrong about that).

Somebody might want to tell the guys that these games do count. Rough start for the lineup, but the pitching has been pretty good so far.

Maybe we'll match up better against the Nats...

We struggled last year at first. I'm not freaking out yet

On a scale of 1-10, how excited are you guys about trading for Orlando Arcia?

Maybe a 4? Seems like a good bench piece but not much more. Hard to grade a bench piece higher than that. Not worried about what we gave up so no hard feelings there.

Finally, our boys are waking up. It's about time!

Absolute screw job in the 9th inning. MLB replay is worthless. Bohm was clearly out at the plate, but the idiot home plate ump called him safe so they refused to overturn.

The runner never even touched the plate...

A rare matchup of Texags baseball forum's two out of state threads, Braves Thread vs Cubs Thread v2.0

A weekday day game in Chicago! Sounds like a good time to call in sick (Farris Bueller's Day Off)...

This team is waking up.

Rizzo struck out freddie. Hilarious
If you can't handle the stress, log off until August. If you can handle the stress, be supportive and donate to United. No more buildings and concrete. Gotta channel funds to the collective for now.

Ynoa out a couple of months after punching a bench and breaking his hand

What the hell?

The season is a quarter done, and things are a bit of a disaster right now.Freeman, Swanson, Ozzie, Ozuna... None of them are hitting. Pache didn't hit at all. D'Arnaud is hurt, but wasn't hitting much either. The bullpen isn't getting it done. Soroka is hurt. Ynoa broke his hand. Fortunately, nobody is running away with the division, so there's time to turn it around. But they really need to get healthy and start preforming before it's too late. The talent, theoretically, is there.

It's only gotten worse since the last post.

The Braves hit the .500 mark again and Will Smith gives up a walk off HR to push them back under.

Yes, that was frustrating. In the process, he wasted a brilliant start by Tucker Davidson. Of course, the offense deserves a lot of blame for that too. Ozzie and Contreras combined for 6 hits. The rest of the lineup had 2.

It is hard not to get excited about Davidson though. Another young pitcher emerging.

Acuña out with a torn ACL

****ing sucks

Yeah, that's devastating. It will be interesting to see what direction the front office goes the rest of the season. They could still catch the Mets, but there's no way this collection of players will win a WS. Makes more sense to trade off a couple of vets who are in the final year of their contracts and call up some young guys, like Pache and maybe Waters.

Traded for Joc Pederson. This also might be the time to finally go after Kris Bryant since it has been rumored for a while

Anderson to the IL and Touki back up as well. We could really use him to pull a Ynoa and be a surprise piece.

But without the breaking his hand part

Braves have picked up Eddie Rosario (for the Panda) and brought back Duvall for Alex Jackson.

I mean probably not major impacts but we also didnt give up anything important for the future either. Pablo should have probably been cut from the team and hired as official hugger and cheerleader by now.

All of the sudden this team is tied for first place in the division. Gotta give the front office credit. They rebuilt the outfield and bullpen, without giving up any real prospects of any significance. Gonna be a race to the finish line against the Phils and Mets.

Getting to first in the division has been a tough uphill climb. I hope our boys make the postseason...

It's fun to follow this team all of the sudden. We're fortunate that the division stayed within reach for the first 2/3 of the season. Now it's the Braves division to lose, especially now that Ynoa is back in the rotation and pitched well. Ian Anderson should be back at some point, and they might just have enough pitching to cruise to the playoffs and make some noise when they get there.

That's the plan, Baby!
