Also the magic numbers are 2 for the Mets and 8 for the Nats Actually, tomorrow is the last game of the series and the Braves need to win it to eliminate the Phillies from the division title in their park.

Posted September 12 Braves are planning on having Markakis play LF against RHP. Joyce would be in RF. Snitker said he'll give Markakis the option to remain in LF full time if he would rather. Ender isn't expected back until the final week of the season. K26dp likes this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 12 Braves are back within 3 of the Dodgers. Cards remain 4 up on the Cubs and remain on track for the NLDS showdown with Atlanta. Brewers are now tied for the #2 WC. Mets and Phillies are 2 back of the WC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joyce in his career has started 474 games in RF and 230 in LF. So it's not like Joyce is hardly familiar with how to play LF. Nick Markakis on the other hand in his career has started 1923 games in RF and only 27 in LF. WTF Snit? NashvilleFalcon01 likes this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DOB said Snitker indicated it's so he can ease back in with LF. In October he might switch back but while hes basically rehabbing he'll get LF. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I still don't understand. What's wrong with easing him back in with HIS position? We're already rotating both corner OF spots so it's weird to that Snit even came up with such a dumb idea.

With one batter, one of Melancon's worst pitches was called a strike and the other ones were called balls. Just a weird game.

Glad it didn't cost us Yeah I watched the whole inning. I was sitting there thinking to myself this sack a **** missed 4 straight calls. Melancon looked dominant and nearly blew a save because of it, it's pathetic and something needs to change. tl;dr likes this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
