Haha dammit don’t give me hope

I’m ready to be hurt again

Ozzie seems to be stepping in the bucket on a lot of his swings lately

Can't quit the braves let's go

lol. Ya think? He has zero chance against anything moving away from him against a RHP.

These bastards are gonna give us blue balls, aren’t they?

Take a fricking bow, Ozzie, Ozuna, and Olson

I think they need a mini blow up or a reset

Get rid of the dead weight. Duvall, Kelenic, Murphy, Arcia, Soler, etc should all be gone. Trade Sale after he gets this Cy Young. His value would be tremendous. And he’s not gonna stay healthy. Max out some return for him

I’d look hard at getting rid of Olson too. His streaking hitting may even out to him having good numbers overall but it’s fricking awful for finding any consistency in the postseason

Also, let Snit “retire” and go get a winner to coach this team and shake em up

Nothing good can happen with strike outs. You’d think they would realize that after the first 2 innings.

Not in these dudes’ DNA to shorten up with 2 strikes. In fairness, it’s not in anybody’s DNA in MLB in ‘24. But, all those dudes were capable of tying it up with 1 swing. Hopefully, the bottom half takes better ABs. I expect Travis to get a PH in the top half. Does Duvall still play on this team?

Trading Olson would be very silly. His streakiness might be frustrating but he’s second in WAR and third in wRC+ among all first basemen since we acquired him. I think the problem for him for a lot of people is who is first in both categories.
