My family travelled to see the last regular home game Sunday. We spent a lot of money to take my grandsons to see the game. He pulled the star players out early with no regard to the fans and keeping the player's sharp. He fricked this up....

Yep. They should have built in more days off for everyone during the season after we built up the big division lead. Taking the last week of the season off was so fricking stupid.

Ronnie looked completely tight and completely rusty. Absolutely no reason to pull him in the 2nd inning of the last game of the season.

Lineup changes were absolutely overthinking things. Showed that we were nervous about facing the Phillies rather than just playing our game.

I hated the new format the day it was announced. 6 off days isn’t baseball…unless it’s the All Star break. Just ridiculous to keep the best teams sitting at home for a week after most of them already played 1-2 weeks of meaningless baseball after clinching their divisions. They need to do something about this!!

It’s an off day…between 2 home games…after 6 straight off days. This format is insanely stupid.

And I still hate the Phillies

Teams the recieved a Bye are 1-4 so far trending to 1-5.

Guarantee they either expand the playoff to 8 teams on each side to make everyone play the WCS or they will expand the Division Series 7 games

I feel a huge let down coming...even before that first game. If the Braves don't win tonight, they will get swept. I'm not sure they win the series anyway. Collapse.

I guess time to come to grips that of course the best Braves team in history will shite all over themselves in the NLDS.

fricking embarrassing. This is all on Snit for essentially giving them two fricking weeks off going into the postseason.

Braves were shut out TWICE in 162 games. Both on the road. April 19th and May 12th until Saturday.

Braves have started Game 2 0-10 with 7 Ks.
Philly has had 13 base runners through 4 innings.
Through 3, the Braves have had 1.
Has a 100+ win team ever gone scoreless in the post-season??

100%…hated seeing Ronnie and others getting taken out in the 2nd and 3rd innings! They should have been playing every game the whole game the last 2 series!!

I know we got the core of our team locked up but even then…we will never have an offense like this again. We will still be very good but this group was historically good. And for it to be wasted is just fricking infuriating.

Fact of the matter is simple. The Braves can't hit a fastball. The bullpen in Game 1 threw almost nothing but gas. Wheeler watched Game 1. He saw it, and isnt even trying to fool the Braves hitters. They just can't hit it.

How in the frick did the Braves beat Philly in the regular season even once?

Acuña, Riley, and Olson are a combined 2/17 in this series so far. That's straight up collapse. And it's from not playing any meaningful baseball in almost a month.
Same thing is happening to L.A.

Where's the fire that Stricklin was talking about?

We are playing as if we don't even want to be here
