My god man you follow me around like a pimple-faced teenage girl with braces. Give it a rest. I will not put my p3nis in your mouth no matter how much you crave it.
Whoa, who's the high pitched Indian dude on ESPN, I could've sworn it was a woman commentator:facepalm
Gutless Mets :facepalm
Muskgrove was talking shit to them all night and they just bent over and took it. No one even pitched inside to them or hit a Padre. Nice job Buck. We know you don't have what it takes to get your team to win it all. You're a good bus driver to build the team up...but that about it.
Doesn't help when Max Sherzer gets bombed, when he's your game 1 starter. He can go. No one gives a shit about how great you are in April.

Hindsight is always 20/20 but I feel like y'all should have gone deGrom in game 1. I know Max is an insane competitor and is of course a guy anyone would trust but you have to set the tone with the best pitcher in the game. Teams that take game 1 in a 3 game set win the series like 80% of the time.
As a Braves fan I don't even really hate the Mets and honestly feel bad for what we and now the Padres have done to them. Sucks.
Fvck Philly though.

What do the Braves have to do to get a night game...
[QUOTE=ShawkFactory;14670367]What do the Braves have to do to get a night game...[/QUOTE]
There's something about Truist Park where the Braves just don't play well during the day. Either too much sun in their eyes or something. I probably saw about 120+ Braves games this season in their entirety and their futility during day games is downright odd.
Not sure what AA is thinking going forward about this pitching staff, but I'm not sold on Max Fried and some ridiculous extension. He's a decent enough Starter during the regular season, but this guy chokes in the Playoffs. And while I think Kyle Wright and his 21 wins are very deceptive, Wright tends to pitch better under more stress, like the Playoffs. Last year was evidence. Not a fan of them bringing back Morton for one more year. Was hoping they would explore FA options like Rodon or DeGrom (and they still might). I honestly don't see Soroka back next year. If he ends up staying healthy, I would have pitch most of the year in the minors and possibly bring him up in the second half of next season.

Fried is a tough case. It's true that he has had his share of postseason struggles but that happens to a lot of guys for whatever reason. The sample size is so small that it's tough to truly deem that truly concerning. Not yet anyway.
Over the last 3 years in the regular season he has like a 2.60 ERA. That's not decent enough, that's bordering on elite. Like you said, with Morton and Soroka being question marks going forward you can't afford to lose someone as steady as Fried. Obviously there's a price for any player that will be too much but I doubt we'll pay it if it comes to that point. I trust AA honestly.
Would be very sweet if the Padres knock out the LA Dodgers

At least they made it to the 2nd Round. I wouldn't be laughing.
Sickening baseball played by the Braves out there. The offense fell of a cliff right after the Mets series. It's almost as if that was their World Series this year. Try to catch up to the Mets and ultimately surpass them. Riley sucked. Dansby sucked. Fried sucked. Morton sucked. Why in the ****ing hell did AA give Morton another 20 million dollars?? Why??
And last but not least, while he didn't suck with the bat, this idiot Ronald Acuña and his incomprehensible mistake in the outfield today. If I'm the Braves, I seriously entertain trade offers for him. They would get a haul for him and I wouldn't be mad at all.

Relax. It’s distressing yes but that’s baseball. The Phillies were insanely hot offensively and we were cold, and didn’t play well in the field. Sucks that it happened at the time it did but it’s not indicative of some grander issue with the team. There hasn’t been a repeat champion in over 20 years because no matter how good you are the stars do still have to align for you in a 5 game baseball series.
We’ll still win 95+ next year and have another shot. Again it sucks...but it’s all good.
Crazy win for the astros
[QUOTE=Patrick Chewing;14671255]At least they made it to the 2nd Round. I wouldn't be laughing.[/QUOTE]
Bruh the Phillies are this years braves. They made the comparison every 5 mins for as long as I watched today's game.
5th seed vs 6th seed, let's see it happen. Musgrove is dealing for the Padres.
[QUOTE=HylianNightmare;14671293]Crazy win for the astros[/QUOTE]
Most boring game in MLB playoff history but I’m glad Astros got it done
Crazy win by the Guardians. This Gonzalez rookie has 3 game winning RBIs this postseason. Good stuff. Also, who the hell is the Yankees closer, I guess Chap? But he's hurt.

Chap's not even on the roster.
It would be nice if the Dodgers and Yankees get knocked out. I could see Phillies and 'Stros in the World Series.

The game 1 completely destroyed Mariners' momentum.
The New York Yankees were 167-0 in postseason history when leading by multiple runs entering the ninth inning- until yesterday.
yikes.

MLB will be pissed if the Yanks get eliminated now that the Atlanta Braves and LA Dodgers are out. Jesus what an epic choke job by LA.
1-0 Astros :pimp:
These day games are so ****ing stupid. :facepalm
I'm rooting for whoever comes out of the NL to win the World Series. I'd rather see the Yankees make it out of the AL, just to see them lose in the WS. F*ck the Astros.
2-0 Astros :pimp:
Their pitching has just been way too good. Yankees have no answer for their bullpen
Blue Jays sticks with John Schneider for another 3 years at most. His managerial performance in the playoffs wasn't really convincing but he did push the team back on track toward the playoffs.
3-0 Astros :pimp:
What the hell was the MLB doing this playoff season?? The Phillies clinch a World Series berth in a day game?? Shit should be primetime.

Can't compete with Sunday night football.
God I hope the Phillies can replicate what the Nats and Braves did, an underdog NL team hot at the right moment taking out the odds on favorite Asstros
Not a baseball fan, but Dusty Baker is still a manager and he is on the Astros? Holy shit, I remember when he managed the Giants when they had Barry Bonds. I thought he retired years ago.

Let's go Astros... even though they've already let me down twice against NL East opponents :biggums: if the Phillies win, I hope the Mets do it soon too :lol
I would only want the Phillies to win for Bryce Harper. But I would love for the Astros to win to quiet the haters, for Verlander, and definitely for Dusty Baker. He deserves a 'Chip.
Go Phillies. F*ck the Astros.
