At least they ripped your heart out early tonight.

At least they ripped your heart out early tonight.

Worst winning percentage in the entire Baseball league, except for Philadelphia. Atlanta keeps trying to take over the worst spot but so far Philies are putting up a valiant fight to stay there.

We've got 3 in a row against Philly. Loser of the series gets a toilet bowl.

 

[DFSNOLE]

Braves win! Braves win! Phillies suck!

 

[DFSNOLE]

2 out of 3 on the road! Break up the Braves!

Braves can't even suck at sucking. At this point wouldn't you say well if we are this bad lets at least get the number one draft pick.

 

[trefeet]

One more mets win and they are mathematically eliminated from playoff contention

 

[trefeet]

Now tied for worst record in majors.

 

[DFSNOLE]

Don't know if any other team has ever gone from .500 after the mid point of the season to 100 losses. A melt down of epic proportions.

And Fredi will just keep on trucking as the manager. Why not fire him and bring in the 2017 manager early so he can mold the youth next year for the run in 2017 and beyond (if that is indeed the plan). I have to admit at this point, I'd rather the team lose and secure the best pick possible, but after seeing this past off-season and the moves made in-season, I'm sure Hart will just take a pitcher who is a likely TJ candidate.

Never thought we'd see a guy who made us wish Wren was still there.

A real feel good win last night. Those have been few and far between.

 

[DFSNOLE]

Question is, can the Braves win 4 before they lose 10? #No100LossSeason

Not sure. That's a rough final stretch for them. Maybe get two against Miami and sneak two more in? Based on win percentage in second half I say no considering a lot of those wins are against the Phillies

 

[DFSNOLE]

Sweep! Magic number is 3! #No100LossSeason

 

[DFSNOLE]

Magic number down to 2. #No100LossSeason

 

[DFSNOLE]

One more win Baby! One more! #No100LossSeason

 

[DFSNOLE]

Win #63 last night!

#No100LossSeason

Win #63 last night!

Good job, Braves. I didn't want you to feel all alone in here.

 

[DFSNOLE]

Thanks buddy!

 

[trefeet]

Thanks buddy!

Tough season.

 

[DFSNOLE]

Tough season.

I'm afraid we're in for another in 2016.

 

[fsugrad06]

Well, the boy wonder, Coppolella, is now the GM. Let's see how this goes.

Can only go up.

 

[Mugsy101]

The only way the braves can even begin to approach 81 wins in 2016 they would have to have almost complete and total health for the entire team for the entire season. That's not asking for much....

 

[DFSNOLE]

What position will Hart hold?

 

[CC0492]

What position will Hart hold?

Asst Equipment Manager in charge of washing jocks.

 

[fsugrad06]

What position will Hart hold?

President of Baseball Operations

 

[DFSNOLE]

President of Baseball Operations

That has always been his job title, right even though he was doing the job of the GM?

 

[NoleMoreTears]

How do y'all feel about the new GM choice?

 

[fsugrad06]

That has always been his job title, right even though he was doing the job of the GM?

I believe so. As to the "hire," Coppolella basically did all the work this season and facilitated the trades that were made. Now he has the title and pay to go with his position. A few other teams were looking into him, and I think the move was made to keep him here, as he was the long term goal of the higher ups.

So we can expect years more of trades for pitchers with a Tommy John history? Great.

 

[fsugrad06]

Miller finally wins!

 

[trefeet]

I think a good goal next year assuming no major pick ups would be 75 wins.
