You guys are really good.
Gonna win the division by 10 games.
I think Julio will be a starter in postseason. He could also be the designated ultra long reliever if a starter spits the bit early in a game. Folty has the arm to crank it up to max for an inning or 2 if needed.
It just keeps getting better. It's now up to 17-2 over 19 games with series wins against 2 division leaders ( both will win their division in a few days) and some of the best pitchers in MLB.
If we go just 9-10 the rest of the way Washington would have to go 20-1 just to tie us, somehow I don't see that happening. 9-10 would give us 98 wins, so we only need to go 11-8 to win 100....yippy !
I got so excited watching Tennessee lose I forgot to watch the Braves tonight, glad they won though! If they keep playing like this we could be witnessing some special baseball in a month
Great win tonight. Now we need to get that sweep tomorrow.
3 of 4 would have been a great bargain going into the series, of course now a sweep would be great The pitching matchup is Soroka vs Scherzer, it don't get much better than that.
Braves are now 2.5 games behind the Dodgers with 19 games left. The Dodgers are 55-19 at home and 37-32 away.
We've knocked 7 games off their lead over the 17-2 run. They've gone 10-9 over that period.
I believe they've been resting players and such. I'm much more impressed with our streak which has been done against pretty darn good competition.
One more for the 🧹
3 out of 4 over the Nationals. We’ll take anytime.
Be honest - did anybody imagine Donaldson would be shooting for 40 homers this season? He, more than anything, is the reason this team’s ceiling is the World Series and not a second round exit like last year.
I did not. At the time, I was definitely questioning the signing, but that is why AA is where he is, and I’m not.
I was kind of excited but let’s be real. His last All-Star appearance was in 2016 and he didn’t exactly set the world on fire the last couple of years. Just a virtuoso signing by AA this year but I have to think Donaldson has exceeded even his expectations
I hope they can find the money to re-sign him for a few more years, he’s been a lot of fun to watch
