I highly doubt he’s sitting on his thumb.. just going off history.. Have we won a World Series yet? Then the job's not done. Criticism comes with the job. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

K26dp 5,212 Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 Per Brian Snitker, right-hander Mike Soroka will pitch "an inning or two" in tomorrow's Grapefruit League finale against the Red Sox. This will be Soroka's first outing outside of live batting practice and sim games since rupturing his Achilles tendon against the Mets in his third start last season.

So late next month is a very real possibility. That is awesome, assuming no set backs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The Braves haven't been to the World Series since 1999 and haven't won one since 1995. We've won a few division titles and not much else. That's "moderately successful" no?

TheTrue7 6,147 Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 Yea.. I think you’re misinterpreting the definition you provided “moderately successful” does not equal “of moderate or low quality, value, ability or performance” As you’ve stated though, you don’t know my athletic history, just that I don’t see the correlation of that and this particular misrepresentation of the quality of ball club we have as being “mediocre”. Which somehow told you everything you needed to know. So, I’d say your perception is a little off anyways. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jidady 11,306 Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 On 3/29/2021 at 9:42 AM, Ransack said: There's some tongue in cheek there but it's still concerning that we couldn't obtain some better options for the pen and that our bench is a complete joke. I'm totally with you on this part, but we should be real. There was the kind of black swan event that we (thankfully) hadn't experienced in the US in more than a century. We're suffering fallout from that. I hate our bench and don't like our bullpen, which was the key to our playing so well last year. But it's a drop in the bucket compared to the losses of Niekro, Aaron, and Sutton. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
