So I am a huge braves fan. I was so excited for this season as preseason predictions had us only behind the Dodgers relative to favored to win the W.S.

Pumped about opening day/week even bought a few games on Fanduel app (Dont get me started on that)

Well now we are 0-6 (No team has ever made the playoffs starting 0-6) our new starting LF who got a 42m dollar deal is suspended for 80 games for PED use and I believe the post season (long shot now anyway)

Is it time to panic?

No. Just ride out the 82 win season. And laugh at the diehards who will say they will turn it around and win the division.

Not time to panic. We started the season on the road against two of the best teams in the league. It was a shitty scheduling shenanigans. Yes, Profar is out 80 games and cannot participate in postseason play and that sucks.

However, it’s not like our pitching was getting absolutely rocked or anything, it’s been our hitting. Our whole damn team is slumping at once, which I believe will come around, but needs to be sooner than later

I stopped supporting the Braves until they come up with some local TV contract. They keep saying it's the media companies fault. I don't care who's fault it is; get the games on TV. They lost what made them such a great organization for so many years. You could turn on the Superstation all over the US and any night the Braves game was on. Now it seems like the focus is trying to pay off debt from the Battery.

You can be a fan of a 1-4 team and have a DH that’s 0-19

Its become comical at this point.

No team in this history of MLB has made the playoffs starting 0-7

So either the Braves make history by accomplishing something that has never been done.

Or our team is basically a deadman walking and for the next 175 games we will enjoy the sounds and sights of a beautiful game know it really doesnt mean anything.

To be fair, it's much, much easier to make the playoffs within the last couple of years. With an 8 team playoff, sure, not happening. With a 12 team playoff and a quarter of the teams not even trying, its very doable.

This team has some problems though.

That was Ted Turner's last act as owner.

Good for you. I can watch every game on my IPTV service that I pay $10 a month for...and that includes every channel that you've ever heard of, plus a thousand you haven't. Y'all need to do some research. I watched schwellenbach pitch a gem tonight on FandualSpots Southeast because it was streaming on my IPTV

It's not an easy process if you are illiterate to computers and smart TVs. But I basically pay $120 a year, to y'all's $200 a month. There are ways.
