Go Braves!

I was a long-time Braves fan until Buster Posey went to the Giants. Now that the Giants have been eliminated, I’m all in with the Braves winning and going to the WS.
 
Was a huge Braves fan during the Dale Murphy, Bob Horner, Biff Pocoroba, Eggs Benedict, Rufino "I can heet in any league" Linares, Rafael Ramerez, Phil Niekro, Eddie Mathews, Hammering Hank Arron, Chambless, Hubbard, Royster days.

Lost interest after the strike.

That said. Go Braves.

That’s a long time to hold a grudge 😂. I’m all for getting paid like Mark Packer always puts it. If someone is willing to pay it; I am willing to take it.

Holy Cow!! We did it again!! Go Braves!!
Now we head to LA. Oh boy.
Taking the first 2 wasn’t supposed to happen but needed to for us to have a shot. So far we looking like the Cinderella team that just won’t go away. You can see it on the Dodgers faces both games. Who’d of thunk we could make it this far with Freeman swinging at balls and watching strikes and no Acuna? Could it finally be our year?

Unfortunately, we had a 3-1 lead on them last year. I feel like we are playing on house money.
 
Few random thoughts on the first two games

-Seems like everybody LA runs off the bench would start for half the league.
-Seems like everybody the Braves bring off the bench would be in AAA for half the league.
-Dave Roberts is not a good manager, why bring in a starter when your bullpen is loaded.
-I'm not one to talk team of destiny, but as bad as Minter looked and not give up any runs "why not".
-Bullpen has been great, have been lucky not to have to use any of the main guys.

Nine walks and a hit batter and the Braves still won! When LA went up 4-2 I thought the game was over, especially with how many guys Braves relievers were putting on base every inning. … (I was happy to see FF finally make an out to left field.:confused:)

Well that's progress. I don't think he has any undisclosed injury bothering him. Let's hope a change in scenery gets him out of this funk because the layoff seems to have affected him greatly.
 
5pm can't get here fast enough. Need to see some plate discipline and make Buehler throw strikes tonight. Side note, anybody watching the ALCS, that Red Sox offense and the way they are starting games, mind blowing.

I didn't realize it was such an early start. With Buehler on the hill, having an early afternoon game is preferred over a night game. My opinion of course. Should be a great match up!
 
Morton with three walks in the first inning … not to mention giving up a homerun … 29 pitches … and still two outs.
