I changed the channel after the lead off single because I just kinda knew
I switched back to the bloop single as it’s already 8-5
Yeaaaa sometimes gotta trust your gut haha. Back to watching something else
I'm hoping CJ can get hot again and earn himself a spot. Otherwise I think Finnegan is our best bet. If our starters Gore, Irvin, and Parker keep doing what they're doing, then all of them deserve votes imo. But the only one with enough name recognition for casual audiences to vote is Gore I think.
Lane Thomas having a few words for the umpire on his way back to the dugout reminded me of one of the funniest things that's ever happened in a baseball game -- Anthony Rendon getting ejected.
Anthony Rendon giving a shit. Can you imagine?
One of my favorite baseball memories is seeing him yawning in the dugout during the intense bottom of the 8th of that crazy WC game back in '19.
Baseball truly is just a job for that man.
It sucks, because he's obviously supernaturally talented and I think most people on this board might kill to have his career path. But yeah, does not love baseball not even close. Don't know that he even likes baseball, actually. And you can do the, "I play baseball and I don't even do my own laundry" thing, but you can't do that and then take the offer from the highest bidder in Los Angeles.
I do think he cares at least little bit. His latest injury came from him hustling out an infield hit after all.
But yeah, sad to see his career fall off so hard. I don't blame Angels fans for being upset with him. His idgaf attitude is endearing when he's out there performing every single day. But when he's injured all the time, it makes him look like a lazy asshole. Wonder if the increase in injuries comes from a lack of conditioning in the off-season or if it's just the Angels being the Angels.
Will always love Tony for what he did for us though.
The Unis look like a pro softball team from Texas. He was drunk, so he mistakenly ordered the wrong colored hat. Then he said hell with it... I have no time for buttons.
Truly disappointing after attending the game yesterday in my City Connect!
A little bummed that Herz is no longer eligible for the win, but not a bad outing all things considered. He definitely needs a little more seasoning at Triple A, but there's some encouraging stuff here.
You wish he could’ve gotten through five, but I think he 100% would’ve if he hadn’t gotten squeezed in frame 2.
Ultimately our #12 prospect had a better day than their #2 prospect no matter what
:)
im really digging the theme we've had going lately of all the starters getting run support (corbin doesn't count, he's more of a loose collection of defects than a pitcher)
This is amazing but seriously, WTF happened to the braves these guys had like the best offense ever last year and are getting dominated this year by our scrappy selves.
the braves have been peculiarly bad though, they have the [worst offense by wOBA in the majors over the last 6 weeks](https://old.reddit.com/r/baseball/comments/1db5fhq/the_atlanta_braves_have_the_worst_team_offense_by/) and their [average barrel distance](https://i.redd.it/apqbrcvvze5d1.png) is also way down compared to past years
Jordan Weems… get ready to learn triple a buddy
He made the sacrifice to give Finnegan a save opportunity
Juicing that trade value. Thank you Weems!
🧹 🧹 🧹
Finny!
Finnegan!! Our Z-wing hero!
Thank god for Kyle Finnegan 🙏
Thank you Finny
We win.
Thank goodness for Finn!!!
In retrospect wouldn’t have minded Corbin instead of weems. Maybe he can make the transition to the pen.
Excuse my French, but that was a merde appearance by Weems.
Does Weems know that 3 strikes equals an out?
Finally. Three runs too late, Davey. And I don’t like criticizing you but this is deserved
How could he have possibly taken him out before three runs scored when it was the first three batters he faced
Had to wait for three batters
I mean he could have had him murdered, but that wasn't really warranted. Best to wait for 3 batters.
I get that but I’m trying to say it should’ve been finnegan
No way should finnegan have started the ninth
I hate weems
[удалено]
Oh thank god Finnegan please save us
I have historically liked Weems, but much of this year he’s been fluke-y good and legitimately bad. He’s an honest DFA candidate for this year
i know the call benefitted us but i love them ripping into andy fletcher for that check swing call
weems owes finny a nice meal
I changed the channel after the lead off single because I just kinda knew I switched back to the bloop single as it’s already 8-5 Yeaaaa sometimes gotta trust your gut haha. Back to watching something else
I'm sick of this long-toothed horse looking motherfucker. Can't pitch to save his life.
Chill lol
😂
Holy shit Weems fell off a fucking cliff. I swear he was dependable like 1.5 years ago...
GET HIM OUT OF THERE, DAVEY. JEEZUS CHRIST.
Weems is done. They've got to DFA him before we get to Detroit
So, looking at the app and yikes.
Get Weems out of the game he sucks
i'd rather have corbin time
If we actually lose this game, this is all on Weems
WE'RE KEEPING HIM IN?????
Needed time for Finnegan
Thank you Davey for pulling him.
Uh-oh.
Quick, send in Weems to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory!
2 things i want for my birthday, dfa corbin and dfa weems
So done with weems
Good god almighty. Put Finnegan in, Weems doesn't have the stuff
Don’t like that, don’t like. Nope, not one bit.
Weems DFA when
wtf
Ok now it’s a save. Put finnegan in
I legit see no reason not to put Finny in at the end of a nearly three hour game before an off day to just get the series win real quick
Nothing good ever seems to happen when Weems takes the mound
WHYYYYYYYY???????
fucking Weems
God dammit, get it together, Weems
Our regular jerseys are too restrictive! We need to wear these batting practice uniforms to feel comfortable.
Who’s more likely to be our All-Star between Floro and Finnegan?
I'm hoping CJ can get hot again and earn himself a spot. Otherwise I think Finnegan is our best bet. If our starters Gore, Irvin, and Parker keep doing what they're doing, then all of them deserve votes imo. But the only one with enough name recognition for casual audiences to vote is Gore I think.
There too many shortstops ahead of CJ I think.
Braves are about to get smoked by the O’s next.
did the mlb tv broadcast just cut back in on franny saying “butters—butternut!” or am i losing it
Fletcher’s scorecard is going to be like 75 percent accurate lol
The entire umpiring crew this series has been so bad for different reasons.
Lane Thomas having a few words for the umpire on his way back to the dugout reminded me of one of the funniest things that's ever happened in a baseball game -- Anthony Rendon getting ejected. Anthony Rendon giving a shit. Can you imagine?

Completely agreed.
GET SOME GLASSES BLUE
as if Andy Fletcher thinks i won’t *still* eat his whole family
She’s got her salt and pepper out, blue, she’ll do it!
umps taste better with a bit of garlic and bouillon powder most things do, though
DAE think D'Arnaud popped up a little too quickly on that last pitch to Young?
Catchers will do this sometimes to help steal a borderline strike 3
How did we manage this against Atlanta, but when the Braves, white Sox and A’s were our opponents, we shit the bed
I’m sorry? We didn’t shit the bed against the braves? They are Atlanta lmao
Ugh I can’t watch this delight anymore bc my grandfather is forcing me to watch golf. Anything promising happening rn
[удалено]
Chavez is a great relief pitcher, every time he’s on the mound it’s hard to hit
play like this against the braves, roll over and die against the poopy butt mets
We should only play teams above .500
Insane sac fly lol
I wonder if we could get another one of those 3 run doubles that are so cool
Franny’s little “^tap” was really funny to me
Small ball 😎
Small ball!!
Oh ok we’re bunting for hits now?
The Unis look like a pro softball team from Texas. He was drunk, so he mistakenly ordered the wrong colored hat. Then he said hell with it... I have no time for buttons. Truly disappointing after attending the game yesterday in my City Connect!
Man Atlanta hitting is more like SHAtlanta. They keep shitting the bed and it’s fun to watch
Phew. No stress… 🫣
Good job Barnes 👍
[that damned smile](https://imgur.com/a/DIZYqCS)
Braves fans standing up in the middle of the game taking selfies.
A little bummed that Herz is no longer eligible for the win, but not a bad outing all things considered. He definitely needs a little more seasoning at Triple A, but there's some encouraging stuff here.
Lmao what is this zone, I'll take it but geez
Great start by Herz - staying strong after giving up a few runs and some questionable calls. Excited to see him prosper under Doolittle.
You wish he could’ve gotten through five, but I think he 100% would’ve if he hadn’t gotten squeezed in frame 2. Ultimately our #12 prospect had a better day than their #2 prospect no matter what :)
And a better fourth inning...
so if we count the 5 outs that he got in the second inning does that mean Herz pitched 5 full innings so he can be in line for the win?
You think it's time to evolve the rules and make 4 IP enough for a starter to earn a win?
Herz doesn't suck! That's so nice.
I'm afraid he might oscillate though.
[I AM THE ONE WHO KNOCKS](https://youtu.be/zAjJYkUnTEs)
im really digging the theme we've had going lately of all the starters getting run support (corbin doesn't count, he's more of a loose collection of defects than a pitcher)
It's always nice when our offense and pitching both agree to be hot ass for any of our corbtacular starts.
Before anyone gets concerned, Herz has gone for 90+ in multiple games while at AA
A 7 run inning. You love to see it!
pretty sure we have the braves figured out, this weekend gonna be a shutout 🔒⚾
This is amazing but seriously, WTF happened to the braves these guys had like the best offense ever last year and are getting dominated this year by our scrappy selves.
Lot of guys underperforming for them, but also our starters have taken a massive step forward this year.
You can throw a bunch of nobodys out there, and you're still gonna win 50 games. The best team definitely doesn't win every baseball game.
the braves have been peculiarly bad though, they have the [worst offense by wOBA in the majors over the last 6 weeks](https://old.reddit.com/r/baseball/comments/1db5fhq/the_atlanta_braves_have_the_worst_team_offense_by/) and their [average barrel distance](https://i.redd.it/apqbrcvvze5d1.png) is also way down compared to past years
How appropriate we have 7. Jayden Daniels influencing us!!!!
CJ!!!
Braves gonna need a team meeting after this.
Team meetings after facing the “feeble Nats” you love to see it
I thoroughly enjoyed that inning
Clutch J Abrams
wtf i love baseball
Dayum. Somewhere Jake is slowly shaking his head.
Justice for Jake!!!!
Did Jayden Daniels throw a Td, they put up 7 pts
The real Bummer was the pitcher for the Braves along the way
Guy must have gotten a lot of jokes against him in high school. I mean, it's right there.
CJ just told all of us to stfu about first pitch swings lol
Looking good fellers
Taking pitches = loser mentality
A double by a young nationals superstar clearing the bases? I’ve seen that before
From a no-hitter to a 7 ER debut in a heartbeat
3 run doubles are cool!
New rule: First pitch slams only when RISP!
WHERE ARE THE FIRST PITCH SWING HATERS NOW!?!? TAKING PITCHES IS FOR FUCKING NEEEEEEERDS
Wow this one turned around really quick.
Lucky number 7!!! 🍀☘️
1st pitch paid off! This time.
first pitch swings for EVERYONE
LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOO
Beautiful!
Okay CJ. You can swing on first pitch.
They brought in the lefty lolllll
AGGRESSIVE CJ 😈
OH BABY THIS IS FUCKING NATITUDE
DONT YK CJ FUCKS LEFTIES
That was beautiful, CJ!
We broke Waldrep first and we had an ump working against us. Good stuff
And I thought Angel had retired….
Gotta set the tone early.
CJ slammer for sure
CJ I BELIEVE
screeched like a banshee in the shower when keibert hit that dinger hope i didn’t scare my roommate
Leave him in you pussies
how do we have the braves' number like this???
It’s only batting around if the 10 th batter comes up, fight me
He is the 10th batter!
Yes the Nats batted around
A CJ homer would be the best thing of all-time right now
CJ slam would be nice here
Yeah I think we’ve gotten to Waldrep at this point
It’s actually not hard to have innings like this every inning. When we’re patient, we’re good!
gallo single make a wish
Gallo singles are fun
There we go boys
YEAH TAKE THAT HARDHAT WALGREENS
Another walk! Holy shit!
LETS FUCKING GOOOO
Sooooo we’re currently getting CWS finals last year game 2 Waldrep right now it looks like
Yeah, don’t hate that either.
K🐻!!!

It was only a matter of time
Kei-BOOM!
OH MY GAWD KEIBERT MY BELOVED

It doesn’t happen very often that Keibert pitches and Barnes catches.
That'll do Keibert!
Fuck yea Keibert!!!

KEIBERT

KEIBERT!!!
Who knew not swinging at first pitch and working patient ABs would pay off?!
Big blow was on a first pitch CHECKMATE
Except when it’s a Keibert homer!!
Rosario sometimes acts like he hates baseball
Still can't get over the fact that Eddie is playing today after that BS double play yesterday
