Bregman even told him, "that is bad."


Told who?

we need to dump Grienke and Verlander.. $70 million and neither really plays, Grienke is there but only as near last choice these days.. you cant have 2 guys making 30% of the total salaries that really dont even contribute, gotta try and fix this ASAP..

the game is not over, but regardless we got a long way with out our best pitcher (s)


I'd still resign Correa. I know he hasn't been good this series but I'm not ready to give up on him


If we didn't need starting pitchers who can get through more than 3 innings...

By the ninth, we may see the first in the dirt strikeever called.

Why doesn't Bregs just let the ump have it there? Get in his face, fire up the crowd.


What is firing up the crowd going to do?

The hitters are still going to get fastball on the edges that they can't hit for power from Fried.

Surprised they made it as far as they did with their trash starting pitching. Alvarez doing nothing hasn't helped either.

We've heard numerous stories from the new guys about how mature this clubhouse was, how they didn't overreact to bad days. This includes after the game 1 failure where the locker room was described as similar to a regular season loss.

There is value in this but I can't help but feel the roster is missing that guy, or preferably those guys, who are going to react and turn this negative tide. There are too many quiet guys, too much sitting by yourself. We're waiting for someone to start it at the plate which is perfect for game #92, but WS game 6 doesn't have that luxury.

Their team has wanted this way more than ours. I saw it in game 1 and was hoping it was an isolated thing, but you can tell. They're dialed in and grinding. Our crew is aloof.


Their team is looking for rings, ours are looking for new big contracts somewhere else. There's a big difference


Literally one player is.

Freeman, Soler, Rosario, & Pederson will all be free agents.

We get stupider when we're losing.

And they have rings or does our vocal leader have one already on his way out?

We are stupider when we don't understand team sports, even baseball and can't see the big picture.




Pederson & Soler have rings.

You still aren't making a lick of sense.


And they're the vocal leaders in the clubhouse dip***** They drive the pulse of the team? Dear God I can't even


Soler is about to win an MVP.

This is such a pitiful performance. Absolutely disgraceful. Come home with your fans behind you and a chance to claw back into it, and you just take a complete **** instead. Pathetic.

We are really bad about beating teams we SHOULD beat in the World Series. Nationals and now this.

You think Carlos doesn't want another one? Or do you just think the team is lying when they talk about how bad they want another one?


You've obviously never been close to anyone in the NBA, MLB or NFL.

This has pretty much happened the last 8ish years. Road teams dominate the end of the series.

You'll see how bad Correa wants it when he signs with Detroit.

Cool. List all the guys you are close with. And tell me how that is relevant to a completely different person.

I looked at free agent pitching last night. Stroman looks like a good addition in my limited opinion. 4/90 or so might do it, and he said some positive things about the Astros on SM recently.

Phew, four more innings of insane finger-pointing, claims that the Braves aren't good at all, and hating Dusty.

Imagine this series if we had fully healthy JV and LMJ … well I guess you could use the same logic for if the Braves has Soroka, Morton and Acuna. But still having an established 1-2 punch in the rotation would have made the difference

Hopefully it's four innings of our team actually giving a ***** But that seems like a pipe dream at this point.

He turned around and told the ump that.

At the end of the day, these guys don't care. They get paid their $500K league minimum and most much more than that.

The fans are who lose at the end of the day. Why we get emotionally invested is beyond me. It's too painful to experience this year after year

Syndergaard is my pick

They should close the roof after this half inning. Not that I think it's why we're losing but might inject some better mojo into the stadium.

Trade Bregs. Dump Correa unless he takes a lesser contract. Spend money on pitching. We won't see another title with the current roster. Too many holes.

Are we really gonna go 1-6 in home games over the last two WS appearances?

I think the biggest question is who will be the pitching coach next year.

We have never won a WS game 6.

I'd like a miracle comeback to change that tonight please
