For the A Posted August 20, 2021 Author Share Posted August 20, 2021 4 hours ago, AUTiger7222 said: Anything less than a sweep would be a major failure by the Braves. Orioles have lost 15 straight games. And them losing 15 straight for some reason worries me. At some point they’ll win a game or a series. That’s why I was hoping they’d beat the Rays at least once to break that streak. Hopefully the streak continues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only loss that would even be close to acceptable is Sunday because John Means is a really good pitcher. But no reason not to pound Akin and Harvey.

AUTiger7222 Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 Blake Treinen strikes out the side in the 9th to end the game and the Dodgers beat the Mets 4-1. Treinen is a guy that I thought got kind of a raw deal by the Nats. Really good pitcher who I wanted the Braves to get for years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slowly let Contreras take more and more of the duties and hopefully have 2 quality catchers on board.

AUTiger7222 Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 The Braves now have the 7th most walks in baseball at 444. I don't know where they ranked before the trades but the way they walk now, man it's fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUTiger7222 Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 That's a terrible AB by Freddie there. Dude has thrown only 2 strikes to Albies and Soler and he went up and swung at the 1st pitch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
