This man gets absolutely furious at anyone that doesn't think the Braves are the best to ever do it.

No, I said the lineups are a push, the Braves have a better rotation if Strider is good to go, if he isn't then that is a push as well, definitely the better pen, and a much better manager.

Nice gotcha attempt.

dont you think maybe, just maybe, theres a little homerism involved when you think at worst you are push at every level of the game with a team who won the most games over the last 115 years in the NL and just posted baseballs best run differential since the depression?

The Mets are so rock hard and ready, they’re not even planning on using deGrom in the WC round.




Just saw the plan is Max in game one, Mets win then its Bassitt, Mets lose its deGrom. deGrom or Bassitt in game 3 if needed.

You do know that the Braves have been 1st in pen ERA since June 1st, right?

And Roberts is not a good manager. Even Dodger fans have said the same thing and Snit has managed circles around him the last 2 PS's

And ask the '01 Mariners what it was like winning 116 games but not even making the WS. Wins are great but if you don't win it all then it's all for naught.

By your own logic if the Braves are better in every facet than the Dodgers wouldn't that make Roberts a better manager than Snit? He has a worse team in every aspect and won 11 more games, setting records for run differential.

Until you refer to me by my actual SN there internet tough guy, then I'll respond to you. Until then, take a long walk off of a short pier.

Thought maybe he got the date wrong but nope from July 1st to the end of the season the Braves had the 3rd best bullpen ERA and 2nd in the NL.

From August 1st to the end of the year it is more of the same 3rd best and 2nd in NL.

BUT from September 1st to the end of the year the Braves had the best bullpen ERA 2.11 vs 2.26 of the Dodgers

I didn't call you any names, "big" and "dumb" are adjectives and "idiot" is a noun

Don't really like going all chalk; I could see the Mariners knocking off the Jays.

So I'll go

Indians (to play Yankees)
Mariners (to play Astros)

Cardinals (to play Braves)
Mets (to play Dodgers)

If your bullpen is top 5ish going into the playoffs you should feel good about it. Bullpen performance has so much variance that its a literal crapshoot predicting which one will be the best in the playoffs.
