We're still a go for tonight. Should be a good 4-game series.


Braves Lineup for Game 1:

1. Acuña Jr RF
2. Albies 2B
3. Freeman 1B
4. Ozuna LF
5. Adams DH
6. Swanson SS
7. Riley 3B
8. Inciarte CF
9. Contreras C

Mike Foltynewicz (RHP) vs. Tyler Glasnow (RHP)


Glad to see Snit riding the hot bat with Contreras. I'd really enjoy 14 more runs tonight.

Mentally preparing for every game to be the last of the season at this point.

Interested to see how many innings Glasnow can go. I assume he gets the Snell treatment from yesterday. At least Castillo is off Paternity leave now.

It’s nice that Tampa bay isn’t letting little ole COVID affect their attendance.

The fake crowd is much louder on tv than our real “crowds”.

Betting on a Folty start is a risky play. He could go 8, strike out 12 and give up 2 hits or he could go 2, give up 7 runs and have a complete mental meltdown.

I took them +140. It was worth the risk for a low play

I actually think the lack of fans will benefit Folty the most out of anyone on the team.

I think his mental breakdowns can be largely attributed to pressure from people yelling at him from behind home plate or in the stands.

Still negative and apparently symptoms getting better. Snitker said one or both could be back for the home stand.

meh. too many factors to explain. i rarely do individual games. prefer certain series system plays depending who plays who and where and who is starting off series pitching. I definitely am not betting this game or series as a chase. won last series tho against mets. i have a system play with NAts the next 4 games.

if you do lots of individual underdog plays that is good if +150 or below as a underdog. no telling what you get with our pitcher tho.

I agree, after Soroka / Fried it gets sketchy.

Newcomb doesnt throw strikes and pitch count gets to 80 in the 3rd inning. I like him out of the pen.

Folty is too inconsistent, don't know what you gonna get.

On the bright side, Chacin looked decent last night.

I'd go:

Soroka
Fried
Chacin
Folty
Wright

**Maybe get another starter at deadline, or wait for Hamels to possibly be ready????

I don’t think anybody should be holding out any hope for Hamels to pitch this season.
