@606ftForward @CathyG_braves It'd be good to see Fuentes learn to get major league hitters out from the pen for sure. Actually - it would be good for him to maybe stay there once Waldrep / Schwelly get back too. (Schwelly might have to be in the pen bc of how late he's slated to return)

Sale Strider Elder Richie Perez Has to be done. Mets started 2025 just like this then it all crumbled. Can’t allow it.

Some folks may not want to hear it, but Grant Holmes getting over a bad first inning helped this pitching staff immensely. Pitching at Coors Field is a unique challenge and Walt Weiss knows that all too well. Staying with Holmes to get through 5 innings ended up being a key call.

This is Austin Riley’s first game with 2+ hits at 100 MPH or above EV since 4-17 Tonight sucks, but a positive to build on for Riley is definitely relevant

@ChoppinBravos Any Braves fan calling the east already needs to be excommunicated from the fandom lmao. It wasn't that long ago that Sal called the east for the Mets, and we all saw how that turned out 🤣

Honestly I know Grant laid a wet fucking fart over the first inning But kudos to him for not letting that lead any bigger after the 2nd. Those 4 extra innings he pitched after the 5 run 1st were HUGE for the bullpen as we start this road trip.

@b_outliers Bold, but it gets Didier experience in high leverage (which he's gonna need when he eventually is a starter)

Walt going with the rookie in the 8th inning of a tie game at Coors is certainly…bold

@Jani__Gee Regardless of who you pay you're paying someone else's mortgage and not gaining equity lmao The only person I'm not charging rent to is my WIFE (because WE would own that house TOGETHER) 🚩🚩🚩 If I were in his shoes, that would make me reconsider that relationship a bit lol

I love Austin Riley but he needs a Tee to put the ball in play right now

Grant Holmes isn’t going to the bullpen for anyone wondering. AA’s reasoning for not adding a starter all offseason was he trusted Reylo, Holmes and the young depth. He’s already moved Reylo and Fuentes to the bullpen before the first of May. He cant move all 3 to the bullpen on May 2nd. I suspect if Reylo gets right he will swap them but Reylo was sitting 91-93mph the other day.

I’m guessing most of the fanbase on Twitter is new to baseball or something because a true fan knows that Austin Riley doesn’t heat up till summer starts, it’s how he’s been and how he’ll always be. Don’t know why part of the fanbase is calling for a trade

Atlanta Braves GM- Alex Anthopoulos was 92.9 Years he Game this morning. Here is what he said- - he thinks last year they got away from focusing on how the pieces of the team fit together, the club house and the right team chemistry. This offseason he put a premium on the right team over just a collection of good players (I don’t know if it was an intended dig on the Mets but that’s what it was)- -He said this group of players compliments each other well and that’s why they’ve played well rounded baseball so far- - they never got close to signing a SP once spring started and yes he saw all of us crying for it- -there’s nothing he can do to make people feel better in the offseason he just has to do his job which is put together a winning team. He said sure he can go on the radio and say “trust me here is the plan” but if you’re explaining yourself you’re losing (moneyball vibes- “it’s a problem you think we need to explain ourselves”). - -He said in his role he has to do what he thinks is the right move and you can make the big move in the offseason and fans will be happy for a little while but once the season starts if that doesn’t result in winning it’ll change quickly.- -BC nothing but winning matters to fans and it’s his job to field a winning team and he can’t let fans offseason opinions dictate what he does (basically another Mets feeling dig lol)- -They haven’t not made any moves bc of money it’s usually bc they haven’t thought a certain move was the right deal for the teams future and he has to make runway for the young guys as the older guys get more expensive and he needs younger guys coming behind them to avoid ever blowing it up and rebuilding.- - he said the three guys he’s most pleased or impressed with so far- Dom, Dubón and Elder. He said Elder going every 5 days is huge and allows them to rest everyone else.- - Austin Riley has been here before. He said Riley doesn’t want to he streaky and he referred to Harris and Ozzie’s careers and how bad they were first half of 2025 and turned it around the second half.- - he said everyone including Riley is working on fixing Riley and it will get figured out he said they thought they had figured somethings out in Philly but there’s more work to do- - it was ridiculous fans thought there was a world they didn’t pick up Ozzie’s option- -Sean Murphy will be back for Seattle- - he joked his wife won’t watch the games with him bc he’s not optimistic or positive enough and he paces and prepares for the worst (and you guys cry in too negative lol)-

@ChoppinBravos I don't think Strider is ever gonna be what he was before...but I don't think he stays as meh as he was last year either. Strider is also one of the smartest arms in the game - there's no way he won't make adjustments

@ChoppinBravos With how this offense has played so far, I think most nights the Braves have a chance to win despite pitching. Strider being further from the surgery is only gonna help him. A normal offseason gives him a chance to prep for his new normal, post surgery

It’s really lucky this team started so hot because the rotation issues are real and they are going to rear their head They’ve already moved Reylo to the pen, Fuentes isn’t ready to start, Ritchie is iffy so far and Holmes needs to go to the pen. Waldrep 2 months out at best and Schwelly is ?? Pérez isn’t as good as he’s been. Strider really really needs to be great.
