(vs. CARDINALS, 5/26)

 

The Braves were 3 runs down heading into the 9th inning of tonight's nationally televised game against the Cardinals.

They came from behind to win in 10 innings.

 

This season, teams that have been trailing by 3 runs or more heading into the 9th inning have a record of 3-423 ........ with the Braves claiming 2 of those 3 wins.

(JULY 22nd)

 

'Dem Braves are having another good season atop the NL East.

After splitting 4 games with the Nationals in front of a combined 153,000 fans in northwest Georgia, they are standing tall with a 6 and-a-half game lead.

 

* )) I was wondering what Austin Wynns' picture was doing in this photo of SunTrust Stadium in a recent article about the team ........ I looked up his career game log, and he played against them last year in 2 of our 3 interleague games with the Braves last year (2018.)

 

Strange that they would have a picture of an opposing player of a team that they hardly ever play against (once every 3 years) in a recent article/thread.

So the Braves just promoted 2 20 year old OFers to their AAA team (Pache and Waters) and a pitcher (Ian Anderson) who turned 21 in May.  Is it that they just have superior very young talent, or are they more aggressive promoting players?  They did the same last year with various very young pitchers  - and I won't even mention how young Acuna and Riley are.  Any chance the O's organization ever looks like the Braves?

I would guess the biggest decision they have to make entering the offseason is will they compete for Donaldson, who went vegan and everything on his power drive.

Despite the hiccups after the sensational debut, they probably want Riley as a regular somewhere to open 2020, and Nick's paths are a lot wider if Riley is 3B instead of LF.

If Donaldson goes, I think Nick has a good shot at at least a couple months while Drew Waters finishes.  Bonus bandwidth if Ender Inciarte doesn't return strong.

      Will the Orioles make the playoffs?

      It’s called venting, montezuma’s revenge-o.

      It did look like they already have their game legs back--maybe in time to make that dream come true. I live in Brooklyn and it's going to be a challenge to hold my place and my lip in the sports bars over the next three days (unless I go to one filled with Mets fans who are just letting one screen tune into the game in the Bronx).

      Adley was 2022, not sure if Gunnar was 2022 or 2023, I think he was also 2022.

      Oh, I thought you were taking about his hitting in high leverage situations.

      Frustrating sure, but boring is not what I would I say. We do steal bases at times. I would like for us to play more small ball sometimes and it is frustrating to see us be so homerun happy. I think with Westy back, we will see a resurgence of timely hitting as that is very contagious.   We saw that at the beginning of the year. Amazing sight to see for sure. I think the most disheartening thing that really shocked me is the apathy and outright disgust I’ve seen from O’s fans toward their team. Perhaps we have been spoiled? No idea. Maybe expectations were too high? No idea, but frankly, a lot of yall focusing on other things and simply not watching/posting would make next season a lot more enjoyable. This is the first time since 96-97 where we make the playoffs in back to back years and you guys have been acting like some real lame jerks this whole dang season. Frankly, yall should be ashamed of yourselves. We are an incredibly young team and with that come highs and lows, but yall don’t see that. You just love to complain and moan and bloviate. Where’s the heart? Where’s the loyalty? Where’s the gratitude? You’d think with all this team has overcome, especially being so young, y’all would be happy, but no. So go off on your little bike rides or whatever. Go watch a movie if this saga seems boring to you. I don’t care. Just for once this season, keep your immense negativity to yourself.

      Fangraphs updated top prospect list

      By luismatos4prez · Posted

      Really an amazing run, 4 straight years. I completely agree with the ranking, too. There's no way Kjerstad is still a prospect though, right? 45 days is the cutoff and he's played in 48 games.
