So depressing when they postpone games. All I wanted to do was watch some bravesball tonight. In the old days they would have gotten this game in with a delay or two. Had hail at my house so I guess I can’t complain too much.

The chop is alive and well. This was from Friday night. Someone put that pussy Jeff Schultz on suicide watch.

Him and Rob Manfred can both GGF.

The chop ain't dead.

I think we hit a new low yesterday.

We’re now batting .215 as a team per the AJC.

Someone needs to take some accountability and leadership roles to right this ship. This isn’t a dodger level team, but this roster is good enough not to be one hit in 14 innings.

22 games in, baw.

You guys really need to quit consuming baseball like football. You'll drive yourself to blow your brains out.

Hopefully Soroka and Fried are back sometime sooner than later.

It sounds like Fried is close and should be activated for the Nats series next weekend.

Soroka hasn't started throwing yet. This is concerning to me. I believe he missed most of 2018 with shoulder inflammation issues as well.

I hate 70% of the pitching staff.

Fried and Soroka being injured hurts enough, but so far Smyly has been a terrible waste of 11 million. The bullpen has been less than serviceable, but I don't think that surprises anyone when you have Nate Jones, Grant Dayton, and a slew of dumpster dives. I can't blame payroll this year considering we are 13th with pandemic revenue. Either these guys are playing worse then they are, or we have some not so great scouts in the front office.

You can’t blame payroll?! How can you type that with a straight face? The Braves are 4th in their own division in payroll

I can’t believe I’m defending the front office here, but during normal times the Braves are top ten revenue, but have spent top 20 or 15 in payroll. Covid is going to have a tremendous impact on an organization that doesn’t get cash infused from a rich owner who is very involved with baseball operations. Under normal circumstances the Braves should be top ten.
