Cal only K'd in 75% of his ABs tonight.Seattle or Bust wrote: ↑Wed May 06, 2026 3:54 amI'm not sure why the massive focus on Munoz.
Perhaps the entire lineup leaving their heads 17 inches up their own assholes is a worse dilemma.

Munoz needs to be demoted to mop up and figure this out or he will lead the league in losses
Re: Kirby vs Elder G.T. Raleigh back in the lineup 5/5/26
Striking out as much as they did felt like it was a given loss. Ughhhhh gotts win the series tomorrow. Braves haven't lost a series all year. At least we did not lose any ground. Thank god for a trash division.

He always gives up runs in non save games. Thats on Dan. U got Criswell or Hoppe to pitch the 9th. No need for Munoz.Southpaw773 wrote: ↑Wed May 06, 2026 4:04 amMunoz needs to be demoted to mop up and figure this out or he will lead the league in losses
Its great to see horrible Cal back. 4 ugly abs tonight. Gotta change up this lineup in the worst way.

Looks like one game win streaks is going to be the norm.

They gave Suarez 3 x $15M instead of dragging dead bodies out of dumpster. Imagine that.seth8734 wrote: ↑Wed May 06, 2026 3:41 amBraves very elite strong pen vs Mariners hurting pen. U would think Advantage Braves hopefully not ughhhhh fuck ugly ugly swings continue.
Why in the fkk is Cal in this lineup. He is complete trash up there. Dom would be a much better option. Fucking weak ass hacks.

Braves have Olson and his 1.077 OPS and 42 career WAR. We have Naylor and his .636 OPS and 8 career WAR. That is the difference between these to orgs.

This team is really hard to watch right now. Just plain boring baseball.
Re: Kirby vs Elder G.T. Raleigh back in the lineup 5/5/26
This is how they've been for most of the last... 7 or 8 years. Most games: Offensively nothing happens for long stretches, then occasional homeruns, possibly enough to win the game.Captain 97 wrote: ↑Wed May 06, 2026 3:50 pmThis team is really hard to watch right now. Just plain boring baseball.
The outliers are the weird stretches of good offense, where it seems like they're all finally getting shit figured out. Sometimes that's a stretch where they win 8/10 games. Last season this happened just enough.
I don't follow other teams closely, but looking at box scores tell me this is exactly what most teams are like now. It's the result of tons of strikeouts, homerun hitters, lack of small ball, all the modern stuff. It makes for lots of boring innings with occasional moments of extreme excitement.
Shrink the strike zone and lower the pitching mounds. Or something, hell if I know.
