Fun Fact. The Braves are the oldest franchise across all of sports, however, they have never won a best of 7 playoff series in 5 games.

What about like Yale football or Harvard rowing or something like that. Not the oldest?

I’m all in favor of the paternity list, but going on it on a potential World Series clinching game? Really? Is Adrianza the only player to use it during the WS ever?

John Smoltz is dead to me.

Guess the network got what they wanted anyway.


Trade Riley immediately. Him and Swanson. You can’t be that stupid running the fucking bases.

Just like Lonnie Smith you ass holes are going down in Lore.

3 fucking hits, and this bullpen is overrated as hell.

Fucking choking ass bastards.

Go ahead and leave Freddie, this team ain’t shit.

Oh the Dodgers are so good... and they were down 3-1.

Throw fucking strikes and close it out.

They won’t be back, because they were actually healthy this year. They’re always worn out and hurt by September every other year. The pitching talent in the organization is vastly overrated as is the rest of the talent and they quite obviously aren’t good enough and being the stupid ass Braves, they’ll hang another moral victory banner, and miss out on Trevor Bauer because that would cost money. Go find Another useless washed Vet spend 18 and go no where in 2021 too Alex.

Acuna, hopping all over the place and didn’t do shit.

Take your moral victory and blow it out your ass.

Spare me the best shape of my life shit next spring too.

Both Atlanta and Houston had 201 at bats during the Series. The Braves out hit them 48-45. Houston had eight doubles to Atlanta’s nine and the only triple. Houston had one more walk, 19-18. But Atlanta had an 11-2 edge in home runs.

Enjoy now, because soon we'll be talking CBAs, lockouts, strikes, delays, riots, etc.

They’re announcing finalists for the major awards this year? Okay I guess.
But none of the MVP candidates were in the post season?

MVP is usually for just the regular season. They already give out MVP for the post season

Not a fan of proposed playoff format. Is a week off a good thing for a baseball team? Given the #1 usually rests some players the final week of the regular season anyway, a week off on top of that would likely lead to rust. Rested pitching staffs would be nice, but overall it seems like too much sitting and waiting.
