BTW, the quietest story in baseball is Braves pitcher, Kyle Wright.  Currently 16-5 with a 2.99 ERA.  144 strike outs.  Anyone outside of the Braves nation heard of him?

That he is.

He was on some of those good Vandy teams the back half of the 2010's decade with Dansby Swanson and Walker Buehler.

Braves/Cards give us a preview of some playoff baseball.  Winner of this post season series will play either the Mets or the Cubs in the NLCS for the right to play the O's.

Fun series.  Braves treated the Cards like Auburn gets treated when we play Fuck Georgia.  A walkoff walk for the Cards on Saturday, and then a fun game on Sunday.  Cards tie it up in the 8th, and get two on with no outs with Goldie up.  Braves strike out Goldie, strike out Arenado, and then the most unlikely Card hits a homer to put the redbirds up 6-3.  Hell of a game.

Braves will NOT go far in October if they keep doing that in innings 6-9. No offense to the Cards because they are a good team but the dodgers and mets will eat their lunch with that type pitching in the latter innings and it won't even be close You have to be able to hold leads and finish off good teams.


And don't look now but the O's are in the thick of the AL Wildcard Race. Let the holy church say Amen y'all.

I would like to see it He will be appreciated more in 5 years than he has been so far. What he has done in a career has been Mays-esque.

No. 4 seed: Atlanta Braves (79-50) vs. No. 5 seed: Philadelphia Phillies (72-56)


AL:
No. 1 seed: Houston Astros (82-47), first-round bye

No. 2 seed: New York Yankees (78-50), first-round bye

I watched part of a regular season MLB game for the first time in several years the other night. 

Braves had a big lead on St. Louis, brought in some softball-player-looking Fattie as a reliever who couldn't get anybody out.  Then he took a line drive off his massive skull and had to leave the game. ATL ended up winning the game, fat-boy had a forehead goose egg that was the size of a donut. 

Atlanta hasn't won since. 

I'm out.

I like Snit as a mgr but he made some huge blunders with relief pitching the last 4-5 games. Pitching Minter 3 days in a row was the kicker.

In his last at bat against the Cubs, Pujols hits #695. A two run bomb to break a scoreless tie.

So with about three weeks left...

Braves 1.5 our of first behind pondscum.

Cards up 8 on Brew Crew.

Dodgers up big on the Padres.

In the Wildcard:  Atlanta, Philly, San Diego..  With SD up 2 on the Brewers. 

Over in the AL
Yanks up 5.5, Tribe up 3, and Astros up 11.5.  O's are 5.5 out of the last wild card spot.

And Pujols sitting on 697.

Love our line up.  Love our starting rotation.  However, suddenly we have nobody who can close out games.  Jansen looks old, slow and very hittable.  No, he doesn't LOOK that way.  He is.  Does not bode well for a playoff run.

Jansen is a legit head case. Dodgers almost dropped him over it but got him some help via some off time and a good sports shrink. No joke...dude has snakes in his head. And I am in no way making fun of it but if he starts getting fuzzy and losing confidence again, it can spiral out of control this post season. He will suddenly make Will Smith look "stable" as a closer.

Update on the standings:

Braves tied with Mets in the loss column - still .5 GB overall due to the mets having played one more game

Cards up 7 over the Brew Crew.

Yanks up 6 over the Jays and Rays

Cleveland hanging on for dear life over the White Sox

Dodgers are currently already in the 2nd round of the playoffs being 3,921.5 games ahead of the Padres.

Suckassstros still in command in their division over a very good Mariner team who have the 2nd best record in bb since June 1 I think I read.

I don't know that I wouldn't give AJ Minter a shot in the closer role. I'm always uneasy when he comes in the game, but he's quietly had a great season this year, with a .210 ERA.  He also has 5 saves.

Even for just 1 inning, hes proven he can't pitch multiple days in a row. 2 at most. But I wouldn't be against platooning him with Jansen as closer some. Although that makes middle relief weaker. Which was YUGGE for the Braves last Oct.

Pooh Holes hits a HR in his last regular season home game.  Kudos to Pujols.

The Braves sweep the weekend series against the Mets and are one game away from clinching.  Beat both deGrom and Sherzer in that series.  That made me tingle.
