Whew. Great sweep.

Now give Abreu three days off instead of destroying his arm in April, Dusty. Was a perfect chance for Press.

It seems like the better the opponent the better the Astros play

That's a helluva sweep against a damn good team.

That big inning against the Jays sparked something.

Wish weren't playing in Tampa given out track record at that dump. But should be a fun series.

Julks is fighting to stay up. He was clutch today. How do we justify it if Dusty won't play him anywhere but LF/DH. We can't have 3 guys who can only play there.

Does he play any other positions?

Yordan is our David Ortiz
He's also our Barry Bonds and he might start earning the Bonds treatment soon.

If I was the manager for the Braves I would have intentionally walked Yordan in the 8th (forcing in a run) to get to a clearly struggling Abreu. Yes, it's unconventional and if it backfires you look like an idiot but he is MR. CLUTCH...why let him hurt you.

If not an IBB I take a mound visit and tell the pitcher to not throw anything close to a strike.

RF & 3B. Some CF too.

Michael Brantley is pretty quiet today in Sugar Land, reached on an error and walked

Forrest Whitley looking…. Meh

He got at hit in his 1st AB

Yeah I guess they scored it a hit, it was a weird play by the 2nd baseman

We are still in the ATL so I'm going to go ahead and take credit for the entire sweep.

I will support it.

Did someone order a sweep?

Two games over .500, our only real risks are Alvarez' hands and Diaz getting agoraphobia from being in the dugout so long.

So going into TB what's our realistic best case? 2 out of 3? We always somehow get the yips there and the absolute LAST thing I want is to hear, right now, about how good the Rays are but at our expense.

Two of three would be fantastic. Think this sweep bought some wiggle room. Rangers will run out of A's and Reds to play soon.

When Altuve and MB get back, and if Dubon is playing as well as he is, there are going to be some serious decisions to be made to the order and CF.

Again, exactly why I would walk in a run, especially with 2 outs and a struggling Abreu up next.
