Dubon is 11 for his last 25 with 3 stolen bases - has 3 RBI and scored 6 runs - and gets the day off with Atlanta trying to avoid being swept -

Cam Schlittler against this lineup makes me cringe. He might rack up 12 K today.

Wow, Sale just got ejected from the dugout after chewing that Ump's arse for the balk call yesterday. That umpire is a little bitch.

This lineup is getting absolutely cooked by good pitching. I hope I’m wrong, but this will likely be a very quick exit in the postseason.

Also Drake has not been good over the last 10, it’s time to adjust the lineup Walt

I probably undersold this. He's already at 5 through 2 IP and no one has come close to hitting him.

The Braves are fourth in the MLB in team Homeruns, ahead of the Dodgers, Phillies, Cubs, and Pirates. If two big bats are hot in a playoff series, we should be good.

I think we need to break out a little 'gamesmanship' and get between his ears a little today - especially with all the BS that Sale has put up with -

this toothpick's stuff is legit but I think he's got a ways to go between the ears if he thinks someone's got something on him as far as a tell on his motion or unorthodox windup -

Walt should stop the game and question Blue about his delivery as if it's a balk

I appreciate the optimism……the team should definitely hire you as a PR guy. You are the ultimate sunshine pumper


From google AI:
Struggles Against Elite ArmsClutch execution gaps: When facing top-tier starting rotations or dominant shut-down relievers, the offense occasionally runs into quiet stretches where hard contact fails to materialize with runners in scoring position.Power suppression: Premium velocity and high-spin command pitchers tend to neutralize the top of the order, forcing the Braves into low-scoring, tight battles where minor mistakes loom large.

Grant got lucky there with a few pitches that were center cut.

Should’ve challenged that pitch.

Such a discouraging series. This is the kind of pitching rotation we would see from LA, Milwaukee, or Philly in October and the offense has completely wet themselves.
