It's mostly Braves and memes on here. 🇺🇸🇩🇪🇬🇧

Those dong slinging, sign stealing, abs stealing Braves are back and coming for our hearts

The Giants won 107 games in ‘21 when PECOTA predicted that they’d only win 75. Dodgers coaching staff noticed in ‘22 that the Giants’ 1B & 3B coaches were relaying stolen info to batters. The Braves finished 4th in the NL East in ‘25. Guess who’s ATL’s new 1B coach this year…

MLB leader in pitching wins (Win total, team):
2022: Kyle Wright (21, ATL)
2023: Spencer Strider (20, ATL)
2024: Chris Sale (18, ATL), Tarik Skubal (18, DET)
2025: Max Fried (19, NYY)
2026: Chris Sale (6, ATL)
Braves pitchers have racked up some wins in recent years

@gvedak It's the kind of thing that feels like it could end up being really easy to look back at and say "This is where things went wrong" if they do. I really hope they don't, but a lifetime of Atlanta sports fandom has conditioned me to expect disappointment 🥲
English
@BravesStats @Stathead I think the next couple years could prove to be difference-makers for Jansen and Chapman over Kimbrel. It's easy to see those two racking up more stats and climbing leaderboards that will help their cases and people will say Kimbrel fell off at the end
English
It's amazing how similar these three have been throughout their careers, and the @Stathead Versus Finder shows it pretty clearly.
How seriously will they be considered for the Hall of Fame, I wonder...

@notgaetti Man when I saw you quote tweeting something about a coffee shop, I just assumed you'd go with Joe DiMaggio dunking his donuts
English
Sort of quaint but also sounds to me like a huge missed opportunity to tweet about Jay Buhner

I saw a guy at coffeeshop today. No iPhone. No laptop. No tablet. Just sitting there. Drinking his coffee.

@notgaetti Appropriate response. Nobody cares about Ellsbury, whether you're talking his Boston or Yankees time.
The real omission here was Melky Cabrera
English
@gvedak Man that is such a cool feeling. Ozzie is the last remaining Brave that I have that with and it still makes me uniquely happy when I see him have a great day
English
@gondeee Man, it's been a while since I've seen you tweet Braves stuff, and it's great to see. I miss your old blog, but hope you're doing well
English
@gvedak It's kinda crazy that to think a team that had Mike Trout and Albert Pujols had a different player at the same time who will likely go down as better than both of them
English
@notgaetti Probably my favorite non-stat baseball fact is that Vin Scully called Hank Aaron's 715th home run
English
Yes!
Vin Scully, for instance, worked for the Dodgers for 67 years and was on the call for many big moments, not only for his team, but for national broadcasts as well. It would be cool to see a back-of-the-card-type list.
For umps: total games, ASGs, World Series, ejections🤣
chuckin and truckin@Charles92049627
@NotGaetti should announcers and Umpires get baseball cards? If so, what “statistics” would you create for them to go on the backs of said baseball cards?

@gvedak This is the experience of living 5 time zones ahead. It used to be fun to be on Twitter during games, but those days have died imo. I make sure to catch up with you and Paul and a few others, and that's good enough for me nowadays
English
One of my favorite things is to not really pay attention to twitter during Braves games anymore and just enjoy the reactions in the morning the next day.
Some of yall would really prefer to be right than have the Braves win 🤣. To each their own though, I’m not here to police

@b_outliers For those of us living in European time zones, day games are often all we get to watch.
It's been a sad few years for my viewership
English
Since start of 2023:
Braves on Sunday: 12 games under .500 (35-47)
Braves every other day: 66 games over .500 (240-174)
That’s a .426 winning percentage one day of the week and a .580 winning percentage every other day of the week
Why do the Braves hate Brad & Scott?
English
@notgaetti Fun fact: "Vogel" (pronounced "FOE-gul") is the German word for "bird" and "Bach" is the German word for "brooke" or "stream" meaning his last name is "bird brooke"
This has nothing to do with baseball, but I had that realization while watching him play when I lived in Germany
English
@RhubarbBrown I'm still upset about Kent Hrbek and that happened before I was born
English
It is if you’re a baseball fan, you lousy Democrat.
Scott Smith@JasonSSmith1
@RhubarbBrown Someone’s going to be pissed for decades about a lousy call? Didn’t realize it was so life and death.

I often mute ads, which I say because this quoted tweet is not an ad, and I'm quoting it because where I found it made me laugh unusually loud for 6:30 AM.

@CodifyBaseball Better vision. Better calls.
