@davethechzwzrd @braves2928 Well yeah they should look to changing what they can, but ultimately it just is what it is. Injuries suck lol can't do much about it

@hunter_moore12 @braves2928 Phillies and Mets are getting hot and if we're losing 2/5 games like we have been that gap is going to close a lot quicker than we think. Fuentes should get another look at starting now that Ritchie is back in Gwinnett but we'd better hope the rotation can limp to July
English
@davethechzwzrd @braves2928 I guess it depends how you look at it. The fact we have 3 quality starters coming back around the All Star break gives me hope that the rotation problems will fix itself. Can't reasonably ask for a team to have 7+ quality starters
English
@hunter_moore12 @braves2928 I'm aware but it doesn't make it any easier to stomach even if it's temporary those winnable losses like yesterday and likely today don't just go away when Waldrep and schwellenbach come back
English
@davethechzwzrd @braves2928 To be fair thats what happens when 3 starters are injured
English
@braves2928 After elder it's just a catastrophic fall off at 4-6
English
@99shawnb @ChoppinBravos They're a good team who had a slow start, anyone who watches baseball knows they weren't gonna stay under .500 for long. The good news is Braves built a good lead in that time so got some breathing room
English
@hunter_moore12 @ChoppinBravos The Dodgers and Padres will probably send them to a 9 game losing streak. The Phillies aren't good at all
English
The Atlanta Braves are 7-6 since sweeping the Rockies.
This division race isn’t over the Atlanta Braves have to get back on track offensively and fix the rotation and bullpen flux.
The Braves have won countless games with late inning walk offs and comebacks but that isn’t sustainable. They have to get this offense back on track and start scoring early and getting to starters.
Oh and Philly is 13-4 in May. They are coming.
English
@KrakenFan1997 @Braves Yeah I would imagine the amount of injuries might play a role they got multiple righty bats out
English
@hunter_moore12 @Braves Yeah and he barely got games in Gwinnet ? Why would you bring him up, when he wasn’t really excelling even in the minors? He looks rusty, so I’d feel a longer stint would have worked better. Not even just tonight, but his all around performances have looked rusty.

@Wolfman4206 @buchsbaum_86677 @CannaDawg Think you may need to step away from watching sports for a while lol
English
@buchsbaum_86677 @CannaDawg Look I’m not trying to be rude, but I hate when people say “We’re in first place” like a bunch of sheep. Division leads can evaporate real quick, regardless of team record or situation, the team needs to be criticized and our fans can’t realize that and have become insufferable
English
People freaking out about the Braves offense right now have clearly never watched a full 162 game season. Teams go through stretches where the offense is unstoppable and some where they can’t hit water if they fell out of a boat.
Calm yer tits
English
@dirtybirdconway @Braves Yeah its baseball there's gonna be bad nights I've never seen a team go 162-0. And Kim didn't have a spring he'll get it into gear. He just put a good swing off one of the best closers in baseball with 104mph exit velocity and got unlucky, some nights just aren't your nights
English
@hunter_moore12 @Braves Shit night. Don’t see why Kim is getting multiple starts.. but whatever
English
@KrakenFan1997 @Braves Kim didn't get a spring and there's a good chance that ground ball goes up the middle if it doesn't catch Chapman's leg. Its baseball sometimes it's just not your day
English
@hunter_moore12 @Braves 😂 avoidable stuff, but it’s not much in terms of make or breaking a team. I still think Kim shouldnt be playing, but they paid him. Elder was solid but the 8th was an unnecessary send out! Maybe Mateo can get some action again, he was a good ss so far for us
English
Still probably the worst call I've ever seen in a baseball game considering the stakes. Infield fly on a ball 40 feet into the outfield?? Insane

Cardinals vs Braves 2012 NL Wild Card Game. Umps call infield fly rule on Simmons' popup
English
Best record in baseball with the number 1 offense btw
Wolfman2187@Wolfman4206
@Atlantaholic69 Everyone is slumping and it’s taking the season down with them
English
@davesbravespa @Braves Go look at the comments under that 3rd game from the Mariners series lol the sky was falling
English
Steph Curry is twice as good as LeBron. If Steph was 6'8 with a 40 inch vertical what do you think his numbers would have been
Vince Williams@VinnyVidiVici98
AB is twice as good as Julio. If AB was 6’4 and ran 4.3 what do you think his numbers would have been.
English
Do people genuinely think AB was better than Julio?? Julio is debatably 2nd behind Calvin and AB isn't the one thats being debated there lol
Steelers Network@SteelersNetwork
The funny thing about the Antonio Brown vs Julio Jones argument is that you can go back to different years where people tried to make a case vs AB with other players as well One year it was AB vs Dez Bryant, then it was AB vs Demaryius Thomas, then it came long AB vs Julio Only one common denominator. AB was 1 of 1.
