Doing more with less makes success all the sweeter.
My guess was correct, Morton was named the starter for game 1. It's lining up well for The Braves with Valdez starting for The Astros. His home era this season is 3.45 while Charlie's road era is 3.06, as I posted earlier, as well as our 3 left handed relievers all being road warriors.
Let's win game 1 and flip the home field advantage.
We are beating Houston
Confidence! I like the way you think, Chip!
Go Braves!
Houston, YOU have a problem, it's Los Atlanta Bravos, they're coming for you.
Hell yes, dream big or stay home.
Valdez’ higher ERA could be attributed to pitching to the DH, when Morton gets an easy out with pitchers batting in the NL. I think it’s pretty even when taking that into account.
Charlie has a LOT of experience in that park. Might make it less of a road game for him than many other pitchers.
Does anyone know who Atlanta has picked to be the DH in Houston???
I guess it might be Soler....but then I haven't had a chance to talk to Snit about it yet.
@donmedeiros well, y'all ARE GOLFING buddies, right??? 😂😂😂
PS - GO BRAVES!!!
True, the league difference has to be adjusted to get an accurate gauge. It's not as great as it used to be though. Now a starter goes maybe 5 innings in the NL, the pitchers's position only bats 2 or 3 times.
A tv announcer suggested it would be Soler, but he was guessing.
very nice !!!
Well, I'm not a tv announcer nor have I stayed at a Holiday Inn anytime recently, but I am guessing too. Seems to make sense. Get him for 2 starts and a possible relief role.
