On the season we went 6-4 with a 26 run differential against the fish. If any team can get the braves bats to get hot in the postseason, this should be the one

I mentioned it earlier but it'd be fun to be the first team to knock them out of the playoffs.

On the other hand, wasn't there some stat when COVID hit and the new schedule was released that this was the first year since the late 1800s that the Braves and Cubs weren't playing each other? I guess it is a shame we missed that.

I remember something about that as well. I think it was the first time since the Grant administration, but haven't been able to find the actual stat.

The fish deserve to be successful less than about any team in the league. From the lack of effort by the front office, to Urena and Mattingly's BS, to almost getting the season cancelled because they couldn't stay out of the strip clubs. Frick the fish

meh. everyone was striking out. if he repeats the same performance while hitting a big time homerun and throwing a runner out at 3rd, then he can stay in the lineup as far as I'm concerned


Not saying he shoulda been benched but still some horrible ABs.Sorry,I just have multiple bad memories of so many of the
Braves big hitters going silent in multiple playoff appearances.

Yeah, when that stat was going around it claimed it said it was longest series in American sports. Which is certainly believable.

Is that supposed to be funny? What am I melting about? It's an opinion on annoying fake fans who care nothing about the game, and all about trying to appear intelligent, as they run through meaningless metrics all season long.

Have an original thought, next time.

I be shocked if the Dodgers aren't getting the prime time slots.

Braves will begin playing right after Price is Right is over.

Atlanta-early game Texas
Oakland-early game California
Yankees-prime time
Dodgers-prime time

We will more than likely have the earliest game around 1200-100 when all four games are going and when its just NL, it will be around 4pm.
