Atlanta Braves Thread

I`ve never seen a team change in just a couple of years like the Braves have. They go from a team that almost entirely relied on pitching to win games to now outscoring their opponents.
The win against St. Louis last night would have ended up being a loss in previous years, but they can just keep scoring enough to stay ahead.
Its frustrating as a fan to see the pitching this year, but the offense makes me hang around to watch the outcome.

 

Wow, a road sweep of the Cardinals. Its too bad they couldn`t pull that type of shit off at the end of last year.

 

Delgado always seems to have at least 1 shit inning during a game.
The Bravos are giving up more grandslams this year than I can remember.
I guess you can get things with young pitchers.

 

I think Minor needs to visit the minors. Giving up homers like it was cotton candy at the fair.

 

He needs to work on his curve-ball if he's going to continue to use it. His change-up is usually solid but for some reason he feels the need to throw the curve more often than the change-up. When he gets behind in the count he serves up a fastball they're sitting on or hangs a curve.

Thank goodness Hudson seems to have come back from his surgery.

Give him a shot, surely someone has a sore shoulder.

 

Yet another grandslam given up by a Brave`s pitcher.

 

Don't get behind in the count with bases loaded...bad things tend to happen.

They should be okay once they get healthy and back home.
