Dansby? Knows how to slide.
Gurriel? Not so much!
Go Braves!
Back in the game.
Gotta hold em 1 more inning.
You know it!
Let’s go Braves!
Keep choppin’ ,Will Smith!
Would prefer to not give the Astros any momentum here.
And that s a wrap.
One down !!
GO BRAVES!!!
Mission accomplished in flipping home field advantage. Hopefully Fried can win game 2 and send it back to Atlanta in the driver's seat.
Awesome game! Awesome win!
Hate we lost Charlie, bittersweet, but we fought hard and won!
Tip of the cap to Snit and the Braves!
Can’t sweep without winning the first one!
Go Braves!
Awesome start to the 2021 World Series!!! GO BRAVES!!!
Did he ever play WR at UGA ? I mean....
Kyle Wright was added to the roster last night. After being the darling of our minor league system for a couple of years he really hasn't done anything of note. At some point the low state of our minor league system will have to be dealt with, it's near the bottom in projectable talent now.
Back to the here and now. If Wright gives the team more than mop up innings in a lost game I'll be surprized. It's hard to see winning a series that goes 5 or 6 more games with just 2 starters.
I think Smyly is our best bet to give the team 4 or 5 fairly solid innings in 1 or 2 games. He hasn't been great when asked to start or play extended innings in the past few months, but he's only really been rocked once, he gave up 5 runs over 4.2 innings back in Sep, the rest of his action of between 3.0 inings and 6.0 innings he's given up between 0 and 3 runs.
If he can go 4 to 5 innings and give up 3 or fewer runs, he can be valuable in the likely advent The Astros make a series of it.
The way it looks now with Fried going tonight and Anderson going Friday in game 3 we'll need a fill in starter ( Smyly ?) in game 4 in Atlanta, then Fried would start game 5 on 4 days rest. If we need a game 6 Anderson could start on 4 days rest or he could start game 7 on 5 days rest.
However it is laid out if the series goes 5 games we'll have to get by without Fried and Anderson for 1 game, that being game 4 in Atlanta. If we need a game 6 Anderson would probably start. If we were to lose that game, we'd need a fill in for game 7.
Just wow, @donmedeiros , that's cold.................! Funny but cold! LOL!
Go Braves!
