    Harper didn’t hit a home runs because of anything Arcia said. He hit two home runs because he got a hanging slider. Regardless of what Arcia said/didn’t say it’s still made up media BS

    Made up media narrative that Alicia said something about Harper after game 2. A reporter ”heard” it in the locker room. Keep in mind Arcia doesn’t speak English.

    Man what a game, hopefully it is as devastating to the Phils as it seems.

    Hate to be "that fan" and complain. But the layoff is too much and doesn't benefit the top seeds as much as you would think. 5 day layoff which is more than the All Star break. Then a day off after Game 1, doesn't really give you a "rest benefit" vs a team playing 2 games in 5 days.

    Postseason baseball is a cruel mistress. Johnson has Bryson Stot 0-2 and proceeds to throw 6 strait balls. Catchers interference Olson barely misses a game tying HR. Riley not tagging keeps DP in play. If Ozzie’s DP play is 3 inches to the right it’s 3-1 with two runners on with 1 out. Monday...

    Lines up almost perfect with the FSU game

    Welp, the Marlins looked more like Minnows. Braves really need to win game 1 to stop the Phillies momentum, fear if they win game 1 thoughts of last year creep in. Smith-Shawver apparently looked really good in the scrimmage game. Think he may be the wild card in the bullpen. Hoping Strider is...

    Game 1 of the Phils game went as bad as possible, hope the Marlins can win today to at least force a game 3 and use up some pitching.

    I don't think Vines pitched his way on the postseason roster. AJSS and Wright looked good. I think you can attribute some bad stretches to this team being bored. Snit has come out and said that they are changing their approach to the NLDS and days off. Inviting fans in for inter-squad games...

    They have stated a few times Wright is going to be a bullpen guy. They could go 1. Fried 2. Strider 3. Bullpen Game/Elder 4.Fried 5. Strider At this point you are better off with Winans, Vines or maybe even Smith-Shawver starting.

    I think Elder gets the start on Sunday, if he struggles again he is probably off the postseason roster.

    Losing Morton is a huge bummer, probably bumps Elder into the 3 spot. Hopefully it’s good Bryce and not bad Bryce. Chavez and Winans we’re both solid this weekend. Saw somewhere Kyle Wright is going to come out of the bullpen to audition for a postseason role. I’m guessing they will use him...

    Very interesting to see how they construct the bullpen for the division series

    Baseball Braves 2023

    Bravos playing some good ball lately. Kyle Wright starting rehab assignments is also encouraging. At this point I don’t see how you keep McCough on the postseason roster. He hasn’t looked real sharp at all since April. He has been solid since coming over from Tampa but can’t throw strikes...

    Curious to see who they throw this weekend. Chirnos hasn't been great Soroka has looked good in AAA the past 3 starts Winans pitched a gem saturday as the 26th man My guess is Winans. Kyle Wright should be back in 3-4 weeks. Will be some interesting choices to make as far as starters and...

    Starters look gassed, it’s Elder and Charlie need a phantom IL stint or let them skip a start.

    Because he can't play shortstop He also needs to play everyday, not have his development stunted by getting two AB's a month Wouldn't shock me if he's the postseason roster as a bench bat/backup infielder

    Will be a interesting couple of days leading up the trade deadline. Looks like they’re trying to add a starter and a bullpen arm. Verlander 🤢

    Man what a frustrating series, haven’t been able to get the clutch two out strike out. A lot of soft contact from the Dbacks finding holes, Ronnie not getting Harris home from 3rd in the 7th, Murphy going 0fer. That being said, it’s hard not to expect a slump when Lee, Chavez, Wright, Fried...
