Ray Ramirez STILL HAS A JOB.
Fucking baffling to me given how many careers this organization has ended under his watch.
If we keep Julio, I'm hoping Folty, Wisler, Blair, Newcomb, et al can help form some kind of quality rotation.
Wouldn't hurt to get a mid-level starter just to help provide stability and innings. Had way too many incidents this season of not knowing who was going to start the next game until like 12 hours before.
Folty I think just needs more innings. Wisler too. They can both settle in as 3's if the command stabilizes. Blair who knows, but he's got weird mechanical things going on.

Ultimately, I think that is what the Braves should focus on this winter. They seem to have an extremely rocky and not stable rotation, and if they have an anchor in the middle, or hell even a workhorse ala Buerhle that can give them some stability, they certainly will take massive steps into being better.

Three straight strikes called as balls... Literally giving the game to the Indians. This should be over.
Seriously Fuck Joe West. I thought that bullshit check swing call by the up on Friday night was bad, but that "walk" was on a whole other level.

Right now the internal list of guys who could potentially fill rotation spots next season is:
Teheran
Folty
Wisler
Blair
John Gant
Williams Perez
Tyrell Jenkins
Chris Ellis
Sean Newcomb
Max Povse
Patrick Weigel
Lucas Sims
Rob Whalen
And maybe Jed Bradley.
That's actually a lot of good pitchers, and Williams Perez. But they're also all young, have control issues, and some of them have poor health records. I'll take a, you know, J.A. Happ type or whatever.

Oh how I hate nationally televised games, if only i could sync the radio to the video. (I tried before and with blackout on apps and u cant pause radio there is no way to do it when the radio beats the video feed.)

ask Atkins, he will probably sell you one of our middle arm guns
Just to entertain myself:
And in the lower minors:
You have to get 4-5 good pitchers out of this.

What an awful strike call on Ramos.
Big zone all night. Was bound to call one of those borderline ones.

Great win by the Mets they needed that, now get some rest for tomorrow. Ces and Cabrera should have the day off, put in De Aza and Conforto, Flores to first, Travis catching etc.

it's september and they're desperate for wins from here on out. their best players should be playing every day

Ces and Cabrera are banged up and they need frequent rest a day game after a night game is a perfect time to give them a day. Plus everyone is starting to get hot so it wont be as big of a hit (hopefully). They could always replace the starters mid game, like a half day off.

I actually gotta agree here. Tomorrow is such a quick turnaround and I'm pretty confident in Bartolo being able to navigate the Reds

Hoping the Astros can beat up on the Indians. I feel good about it. Gotta stay at least .500 on this road trip.

I had a bad dream that Eduardo Rodriguez took a no-hit bid 7.2 innings and then lost it because Hanley Ramirez isn't a first baseman and Bob Melvin is an asshole.
And then suddenly Craig Kimbrel blew it and the Red Sox lost to the Oakland As.

It'll be a good series that's for sure. Both teams coming off big wins. You guys finally beating the Rangers and we scored 3 in the bottom of the 9th with two outs to Sweep the Marlins.
Detroit keeps creeping so we need this series just as much.
Hope it's a good one!
So was TJ Rivera, Campbell, Nimmo, Edgin and Goedell.

Good day to rest the banged up guys. Bartolo should handle the Reds.

They should. And he can take his bag boy with him. Both are trash players that are hurting this team.
Thanks AA.

Why did you guys get him again? To stick it to Sox fans?

Somewhat tangentially related to baseball, but for those into motorsport like me, apparently Liberty Media, AKA the owner of the Braves, is looking like the frontrunner to buy Formula 1.

Two on for Pillar to strike out. Thanks Gibby.
