In the AL I'll take the cheaters

I'll do a small $25 series wager if anyone wants the bosox. I still have much more preseason dough on the Doyer and the Braves taking it down.

There goes Smoltz with his idiotic theories.

Go braves I guess

These teams need to get rid of their little cutesy hand signals they give to each when one of them gets a hit. Just be a bad ass and show no emotion - your jerseys will sell out.

Oh Lord.

In for BRAVES

I always thought the Dodgers would be the final boss of the NL, despite the year the Giants had.

Now we'll find out

It's not like Atlanta sports teams have any history or baggage with choking in big playoff games, what could possibly go wrong?

In after teej and for Braves

Knebel living dangerously

"Manufactured run" to win another playoff game

Does Albies helmet never stay on?

Lol I thought the same exact thing.

Also Ozzie Albies seems like the most likeable dude

have a breakout year, Austin Riley

They get Acuna back. Albies, Riley, Swanson (had a good year iirc) Very nice young core of position players and arms. Freddy got some good tread left. Mets and Phillies gonna have a tough go in that division

And if the sox had tried manufacturing runs they would have lost 5-4

It's almost like it shouldn't be all of one or the other but a balance of both

You're right. It's's almost like it. But it's not.

And before you come back with the very obvious retort, obviously there are very specific situations late in ballgames where one run is way more valuable than normal. But we both know that's not what you're talking about in a general sense

freddie "automatic strikeout" freeman...talk about a slump

almost like he started guessing on every pitch and he's always guessing wrong

how is that a double?

No way trying to steal second was less risky than that shitty bunt. Maybe hit and run when you know you're getting straight fastballs.

barves seem to have some positive mojo working

I like the 3 waves of cheering in this video
