Woke up. Still nervous. Have to go back to sleep

Sitting an All-Star catcher in the playoffs? Bold.

Already tired about the format whining. They lost one game (they’re very much still in this series) & already want change.

I don't understand... Neither was great offensively in September. Maybe D'Arnaud has better numbers against Wheeler?

Oh it's coming. Going to be hard to come up with a format that doesn't lead to the Braves getting eliminated in the NLDS since, you know, that's like their entire history.

Castellanos: 8/13 against Fried
Harper: 9/30
JT: 14/40
Turner: 14/35

And this guy's got a blister? With Wheeler on the mound?

Don't f*** this up

A confident Philly never ends well.

After checking he has great numbers against Wheeler. OPS over 1.000 n 23 PAs. Haven't followed the Braves closely enough but maybe a personal catcher situation also.

Anytime Philly does anything succesful leagues/fan bases start looking for changes to rules.

The way it was phrased to me by a heavy MLB bettor was that it’s a soft Fried preference rather than a personal catcher. TDA caught Fried’s first start, then didn’t for the majority of the year before getting his last 2 in September.

Apparently Strider is the same situation.

Is there any field that you don't have an expert acquaintance/friend in?

I sure hope not. Make friends. They’re good. We want them.

Getting this post in before Fried tosses a two hitter.

If you have a guy that knows how to make doomsday bunkers I don't even know what I would do. But I would do something.

He must work at Gold & Silver Pawn Shop.

We all said we’d be happy splitting in Atl and that has happened at the worst. I know the game one victory changed things a bit, but Atl is a potent offense. Probably best we don’t get ahead of ourselves. Knowing Philly luck the blister game goes down in Braves lore like a poor man’s Schilling bloody sock game

Still nervous

Jalen Carter does too good against double teams. Other NFL teams allowed a 12th man on defense when he is on the field.

 

[Gregor Samsa]

Don’t know why I like sports. When a team is good it brings nervousness. An easy win would be nice

 

[DancingPanther]

Re: D'Arnaud....a former Phillie. You know what that means

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

RBI guy.
