And watching Contreras go 4-4, knowing AA thought .110 hitting Murphy was a better fit just pisses me off to no end.
That's not just a bad AA trade, that's up there with the Chris Archer trade among the worst ones any team in baseball has made in the last 10-15 years.

Ronald hasn't looked right all year. He looks heavier, slower, and looks like the Monstars have taken away his hitting ability.

Suter pitches like he has been mainlining Red Bull all day
I'm amazed anyone ever runs on him

When was the last game we won with Sale starting
7/29 @NYM
He has only started twice since then

Ronald thinks he’s Ricky Henderson. He probably was, pre injury.
He definitely doesn't have the same speed he used to. It sucks to see.
I'm jealous. Milwaukee puts good at bats together, drives pitch counts up, doesn't strike out a thousand times per game, and doesn't rely on home runs to be productive.
The hell was Ronald doing there? We've seen a lot of weird stuff with him this season
Misiorowski is just what a badly struggling offense needs to see. Sale is gonna have to be damn near perfect today.
The kids skipping this much school are ones you don't want to be at school. I guarantee classrooms are easier to manage when those kids aren't there.

Iggy's best outing in quite some time

One of the best pitches thrown by a Braves pitcher this season. Up and in fastball at 99mph with late run.
That's elite shite
Really starting to hope we keep him in the bullpen. A cheap, controllable, elite back end bullpen arm would be a huge asset going forward.

Come on, guys. Blow it open right here.
This offense is so, so, so bad. These guys' falloff in the last 3-4 years needs to be studied.

Feels like the Braves always get their arse handed to them in these random makeup day games. The offense will score no more than 2 runs today.
Fourth straight game the opponent is throwing a shitty pitcher at us.

What sucks is that these swoons aren't even because of underperformance.
This roster was littered with dudes who we all knew it was only a matter of time before they regressed to their means.
The sad part is that you can go back to the offseason thread when the two major moves we made were for Yaz and Dubon, and we all saw this coming. How did AA not?
That's the problem.
As a team, the Braves have a 99 OPS+ for the season. That's worse than 2024 (100) and 2025 (101).
This season feels like a repeat of 2024, but AA won't be able to fall back on injuries this time (even though anyone paying attention in 2024 could see that there was so much more at play than injuries).

First sweep for the Twins since June. Good lord.
Divorce and family courts being wildly skewed in female's favor has a lot to do with this. A lot of these guys probably grew up watching the men in their lives get absolutely railroaded by that bullshite.
It seems like it has been ages since the Braves put together an inning like this. 3 runs on the board without hitting anything over the wall.

Probably the reason we can't ever trade this dork. Beginning to believe AA has no chips. No other org wants the trash we are offering
AA is really bad at selling high. I pounded the table all winter saying to trade Waldrep. I didn't expect injuries to be the problem, but I thought what he showed down the stretch last season was a mirage.
