Gomber kind of acted like a basket case when things weren’t going well for him. Wonder how he will handle pennant race/postseason baseball.
-
Contreras really has bad swings in favorable counts.
-
if you go by season to date stats, the odds should seem less wonky the projections obviously didn't have the braves being very good https://www.fangraphs.com/standings/playoff-odds/season-to-date/div That’s a lot better. The AL still gets weighted way too much for WS odds though.
-
Yeah, but 7 times more likely to win the WS than the Braves?
-
I get he’s coming back from injury, but this is his 5th level this season and only his 7th appearance. Seems kind of odd to have rehabbed in so many different places.

Dodgers: 1.5 GB division 2 GB WC (with the DBacks only 1 GB of them) 71% chance to MAKE LDS 32% chance to WIN LCS 15% chance to WIN WS Braves: 3 games up (2 team race) 76% chance to MAKE LDS 10% chance to WIN LCS 2% chance to WIN WS Cubs: 4.5 games up 96% chance to MAKE LDS 29% chance to WIN LCS 10% chance to WIN WS My first contention is that the Dodgers make LDS is too high, and my second contention is that the win LCS is waaaaaaay too high. The Braves percentages are all way too low. I actually think the Cubs are spot on, except the win WS should probably be closer to 15%.

If the Friday/Saturday games get rained out and they can play Sunday, it would be a DH. Then you just have 1 game that I bet they stick at the end of the year, and then it most likely would not get played. I think the only way it gets played is if it affects whether or not the win the division, or the wild card. I’m actually pretty certain that unplayed games are not made up for the sole purpose of playoff seeding.
-
Nice, easy win. Just like we thought.
-
If he called that a ball I might have broken the TV.
-
What’s with the BS non strike calls?
-
Great, now we can’t complain when we give up hits to crappy players.
-
Pretty awesome when a guy has to make like, maybe 1 decent pitch all inning to get a 1-2-3 inning.
-
We need a HR Zobrist.
-
You’ve got to be kidding me
-
Javy. Take your BB
-
Justin Wilson is going to be getting big outs in the postseason.
-
Shows what I know
-
Way too much plate right now.
-
I’m ok with 4 or more straight pitches out of the zone here.
-
This week sucks.
-
Really wonder what the bullpen of doom would have been like if we also got the rotation we thought we had.
-
Robot umps
-
Maybe Strasburg is gassed enough to give Russell a fat one. Edit: That was pretty fat, but Russell is garbage.
-
Give Willson a week off.
-
Don’t give up hits to shitty hitters
