So... uhhh... maybe we do need to make a move for a starter.


The Braves need any combination of RP, SP, and LF that they can get. Which is why I said in the trade deadline thread this isn’t an either/or type of discussion. You don’t dismiss pieces that improve the club because of some perceived notion that another missing piece is more important

Should have pulled his arse 2 batters ago.
They leave them on way too long when they are obviously having a garbage outing

I mean if there is a deal to be had for an upgrade in LF, go for it, but we're not going to do much better than Eddie with an OPS hovering around .800 without giving up a lot.

Maybe try and bring back Duvall again, but that is a marginal improvement, if any at all.

I mean, that's pretty much a Snitker hallmark, and I've bitched about it on numerous occasions. But in this case he has zero bullpen depth at all due to all the injuries, Snit pretty much has to give him more rope than usual.

But he definitely should have been out after the double to Marte most likely, and definitely after the triple to Carroll.

perennial slump busters.
It’s been maddening yet fascinating to watch

I'd rather Pillar getting these AB's than Hilliard, even if it's against a RHP.

He hasn't looked good his last two starts, but telling him to frick off is a little strong. He's been so good up until his last two starts.

Hopefully just a bump in the road.

Meh.

Broski is right, Eddie is just fine in LF w/an OPS around .800 and(yesterday notwithstanding) decent defense in LF. The offense is fine, we need to focus on upgrading pitching, you can never have enough.

You can't have your cake and eat it too. Focus on your weakest link(pen, maybe the rotation) and strengthen it, the offense isn't broken so why fix it?

Bryce may stay out there considering this is game 1 of 6 straight.

You know we weren't gonna keep up that pace. C'mon man.

Yeah I agree. He'll just have to eat it.
