We're in really good shape to make the playoffs. Our 9 AL East games left are six against Boston and three against Baltimore. The Marlins have to play the Yankees Toronto and Tampa Bay
Well, the top two teams in each division make the playoffs this year (and then two Wild Cards beyond that); so, with the Nats, Mets and Phils throwing up on themselves, agree that the Braves are a lock to make the playoffs.
This is kind of annoying. Waters down an already bizarre regular season.
Took Freddie a decade to get his first GS & now he has two in three days.
Braves place Max Fried on the injured list. Amazing how many starting pitchers the Braves have been injured or opted out or have otherwise fallen out of favor:
- Fried
- Soroka
- Folty
- Hamels
- Hernandez
- Newcomb
Maybe time to change pitching coaches over the Winter? Injuries are one thing but inconsistency drives me crazy.
Braves activate Albies; Camargo sent to the alternate training site.
Why not send Hechavarria? That dude is a liability.
