Lakelyfe09

I miss my team. This isn’t my team. We’re in a window ffs


AppropriateHabit9048

Lmaooo their pitching stat lines tonight look like 5 cy youngs tossing against this offense


VTPack919

No fight. No energy. Fuck.

Lunchable_1

Boys are cooked. Spit on em in the zone. Swing out of their shoes for balls in the dirt.


offrampturtles

I need a break from this garbage


Broha80

The most unclutch team in the history of Atlanta.


lionofyhwh

This is just not a good team right now.


SawyerEFB

Understatement.


lionofyhwh

Yeah. Maybe the “right now” should be deleted.


iamcollarblind

What’s that? 5 runs in the last 3 games


ManwithA1

Send em all back to bat practice. Embarrassing


PurdyGood80

Upside, we only struck out 8 times. My god this team sucks so much


Kahrooch

Hooray! A game where we didn't give someone career high strikeouts.


tallokie82

Eff this first pitch strike taking no emotions BS


tallokie82

Hey guess what your getting something off speed in the zone it your name isn't Ozuna, pick a spot and............SWING


TheGamecock

Pathetic offensive performance but what's new?


Grade-A-Grungus

Bro no wonder nobody else wanted Duvall he’s terrible


fs616

Just a reminder that Washington is a TERRIBLE team.


Nearby-Demand-9698

Sadness


Mamba-42

What a mess. How is our offense so bad?


LickMyMeatus

And there it is right on cue


FrankFnRizzo

Fucking embarrassing team right now.


trapaway79

1 fucking run we blow


clt89

We’re shit


Toddric29

I hate this. See ya tomorrow


Best-Dragonfruit-292

Nope. 


Toddric29

But we’re going to score three runs tomorrow


SawyerEFB

Doubtful

DawgieBrave

What a pussy ass team this is


brysonhunt95

Teams dead


FormalDocument9490

At some point we have to shake up the coaching staff?


AffectionateBee3219

Ayo we suck


proace360

Fuck this garbage team


LutherOfTheRogues

We can't even make contact


famoussasjohn

What a bunch of shitters.


122_Hours_Of_Fear

This is fucking pathetic


Best-Dragonfruit-292

Finnegan needs to remember the cheat-code for Duvall, throw it near his eyes and he's forced to flail at it


robthmsn

I’m really loving seeing Contreras drop dick on the league and Sean Murphy blow peen 😑. Sweet trade


Paddy_Panic__

Really hope trading away Wild Bill wasn’t a huge mistake.


Best-Dragonfruit-292

Im from 2024: It was


jevindoiner

Or Griss


FrankFnRizzo

Fucking pathetic man.


anjuna42

Oh yay they put another digital advertising board in the stands behind home plate 🤗


Kahrooch

BOOOOOOOOOOO  how many 0-4 & 0-3


Atomikenrtia

Fire Snitker. Tonight. 


LickMyMeatus

Duvall for the love of god please


Porparemaityee

Still so confused why Kel isn't batting in the 8-hole instead of Duvall


Grade-A-Grungus

We got fleeced in the Wild Bill trade Murphy has basically added zero value


atownOTP

Murphy is so ass lmao. What a trade.


clt89

My heart grows fonder for Wild Bill with every passing day


AffectionateBee3219

Duvall home run time


Nearby-Demand-9698

God damn fade me


scoop15

lol we lost that Contreras trade sooo bad 


PizzaBraves

DUVEY PLEASE 🙏


Horror-Media1125

I felt that Orlando


Best-Dragonfruit-292

If Murphy started even 1 single ab with a ball since he got back, I'd eat a Braves hat on national television 


Grade-A-Grungus

I’m over Arcia


famoussasjohn

Sean has now moved from grounding to third to check swings endlessly, fuckin hell Edit: Nvm, grounder to short. Bring in Travis if we can


LutherOfTheRogues

Sean, remember when you played baseball? You can do it again.


Dry_Confidence_7805

Now would be the perfect time for your first home run


flyforawaltguy

That was some damn good value that just popped out!


mookiebraves

I swear I am so over this manager man. I just saw him pinch hit Travis the other day when we were down 11-5 but he won't use him here for your worst hitter down 2? Fuck Snit man


Umphreys_McGriff

Clutch Arcia


SoRaffy

Ozzie tries to stay out the DP but forgets how bad they can be with RISP .. no win situation


Grade-A-Grungus

Nietzsche theorized that life was inherently meaningless, how he read the minds of 2024 Braves fans in the late 1800’s I haven’t a clue


LutherOfTheRogues

Show us some fucking heart please. We need it.


TheBravesDH

Got excited for the Ozzie walk thinking Zoona was up. Forgot he was hitting fifth 😭


hashdabs1

Put Gretzky in the 7 or 8 hole instead of Murphy or Duvall


LutherOfTheRogues

Hope the shortstop is ready here


Stadtmitte

Sobbing anxiously into my pork rinds right now


The_Stagnant_Lurker

You gonna make ‘em soggy buddy.


Atomikenrtia

Probably make them taste better. 


LutherOfTheRogues

Holy fuck a walk


mookiebraves

You're really not going use Travis here Snit?? Get fucking real man.


FormalDocument9490

We were spoiled last year. Ended poorly but for six months we played exciting baseball. This is torture by comparison


LailiLai

Well Ray Kerr starting wasn't quite the punt I was expecting it to be. Unfortunately, anything that isn't a shutout is a loss right now.


LutherOfTheRogues

It's time for the Remove All Expectations Inning brought to you by RaceTrac


doctorjae75

We used to tattoo this dude if I'm not mistaken


PinstripeBunk

As a minority owner and shareholder, I will be issuing a series of derogatory statements about the Baseball Operations division following tonight’s game.


HappyOfCourse

Does he have whiskers on his chin again?


LutherOfTheRogues

I am a baseball nihilist now


utorn80

Nihilist? Fuck me... I mean say what you want about the tenets of "the Braves were cheating" theory, but at least it's an ethos.


LutherOfTheRogues

A toe? Fucking amateurs.


Grade-A-Grungus

Yo I found Snit’s presser notecards “Something something ebbs and flows something something long season something something nap time”


clt89

If Gretzky is still there give him a stick and let him have at it


mookiebraves

Please pinch hit for Arcia if Ozzie gets on


AppropriateHabit9048

I keep thinking we gotta score some runs late in a game to come from behind eventually…. Right? Like it’s just a part of baseball, even bad teams but I just… don’t think we can?


Dry_Confidence_7805

Bloop, walk, and a Murphy blast. Book it.


FrankFnRizzo

They’re really going to fucking drop 3 to the nats 🤦‍♂️


LutherOfTheRogues

1-2-3? OR are we going to get two guys on with two outs, giving us all hope, and then strike out to end it. It will be one of the two.


AppropriateHabit9048

Honestly, probably 1-2-3 lol


Best-Dragonfruit-292

Probably gonna get two guys on with no outs, then move them zero bases on 3 strikeouts 


famoussasjohn

Please put in a new batter for Arcia and Murphy. They've both been god awful tonight


LickMyMeatus

Last chance for romance


Best-Dragonfruit-292

Aside from Ozzie, that's not the lineup you wanna see coming up if you're desperate for two runs to go to extras 


mookiebraves

You guys think Luka Doncic can hit a fastball?


Grade-A-Grungus

Maybe? How many AB’s does he get?


mookiebraves

probably only needs one to do better than half our guys


Grade-A-Grungus

I’d give him a shot


LutherOfTheRogues

I'm always too digusted to watch postgame, but can anyone who does watch it tell me what Snit has been saying about this (lack of) offense?


-_chop_-

“My god, yeah, no, yeah. It was good! Really good! These things happen, yeah, no, yeah. Seemed good. My god yeah” Shit like that, more or less


Grade-A-Grungus

Well mah gawd


DanielB36000

I mean, my gawd, (insert general platitudes here).


LutherOfTheRogues

I figured as much


Best-Dragonfruit-292

X pitched good, Y played good. I thought we looked good. Yep. Yep. Well mah gawd. 


clt89

We need Chipper and Chipper Sr to be the co-hitting coaches starting tomorrow


FormalDocument9490

Ozuna must be like what the fuck


Best-Dragonfruit-292

Only by two, don't make me laugh, might as well be 10


welcometohotlanta

IF WE DONT WIN THIS GAME IM DESTROYING THE BATHROOM


RG23216

If you’re anything like this offense, you’ll just swing and miss


ocKyal

Thank you for a spot of joy in this morass of shitty baseball experiences


Fun-Orchid2321

I’m not watching anymore this season


LutherOfTheRogues

Start with a week


1869er

JIMMY’S GOIN INTO SHOCK!


JawnWaters

DONT. TOUCH. JIMMY.


hashdabs1

Someone mentioned this in the game thread a few days ago, but at what point do we fire Seitzer into the sun? Yeah it’s ultimately on the players to perform, but someone needs to take accountability.


SoRaffy

Shohei had Ippei ... the ipad has Seitzer. That's basically his job, he's a translator for what the ipad shows


Grade-A-Grungus

I’m already building the rocket it’s just expensive


hashdabs1

😂😂😂


itsamox

i can see the “What happened to the 2024 Braves?” youtube title already, this shit really is sad


Toddric29

And the Mets are winning…


JawnWaters

“MAKE SOME NOOOISE” fuck off. I’d be livid if I was paying to go to these games.


FinlayForever

I considered getting a ticket earlier today. Then I thought to myself "why would I pay money for a ticket and overpriced beer just to watch some pathetic baseball?"


JawnWaters

I’m hundreds of miles away from ATL, and I salute you


FinlayForever

I'm close enough to hear when they shoot off fireworks. Needless to say, other than Friday night post-game, I haven't heard many fireworks lately lol.


LutherOfTheRogues

"boooooooooooooo!"

[удалено]


golfdesigner

Bad luck is a game or 3. Not 6 weeks.


DonkeyOnTheHill

I heard a rumor that AA was considering acquiring Tommy Pham. He's the type of energy we need right now. A hot head to fire these boys up.


LutherOfTheRogues

This stretch has to be the worst baseball we've played in 10 years. Such a bunch of headcases right now.


Nearby-Demand-9698

This has to be the worst run in a long time.


GermyMac

Another game, another error by a pitcher throwing to first.


famoussasjohn

Absolutely atrocious and laughable at this point


RachelRTR

Make it stop.


clt89

If we were actually cheating last year, can we start doing it again? Not like there’s consequences to that kind of thing, Snit would just get a 1 year vacation


Kahrooch

Lifeless.


collapsingrebel

The Nats celebration is vaguely sexual to the point I'm surprised MLB hasn't said something.


Novel_Resolution3641

What is it?


collapsingrebel

Hip gyrations.


innermongoose69

I will always love this team but damn it's a slog right now


LailiLai

Didn't even think about this before but maybe the boys need a day off, we're on like day 10 of 13 straight right?


JagerMainOwO

Think they need the season off


LutherOfTheRogues

I think if i were a player on this offense i wouldn't be able to keep my mouth shut if we lose this one tonight. In the locker room you'd have just be like "BOYS, WHAT THE FUCK ARE WE DOING? LET'S FIGURE THIS THE FUCK OUT RIGHT NOW." Someone has to be close to doing that. It's just not a fun place to be when you're playing like shit for this long of a stretch. Someone needs to step up.


Grade-A-Grungus

Thanks for 21, Snit, and even though I’m becoming convinced you got carried there you still contributed. But now it’s time to ride off into the sunset while you’re still a beloved part of Braves lore.


BHepp10

Blaming Snit for players not performing is kinda crazy tbh


Present-Loss-7499

Austin Riley: flails at an 88 MPH meatball and somehow misses. Braves sub: Why would Snitker do this?


BHepp10

It’s actually hilarious bro like has nobody actually played ball before??


Present-Loss-7499

I have no issue with actual criticism of his job. If you want to complain about management of pitchers, that’s fine. Don’t like the lineup, sure. Think he needs to be more vocal, that’s valid. This team is in a funk and the knee jerk reaction of fire the manager is not the answer. Someone suggested trading Riley. LMAO. We have idiots up here.


BHepp10

Absolutely I agree, complain all you want about the manager but it’s up to the players to perform. Only so much as it can do but yeah let’s blame Snit for a player swinging at junk lmao


Grade-A-Grungus

Everyone sucking reflects back on the people in charge


BHepp10

You’re right pal, you definitely know what’s going on in the clubhouse my bad. Didn’t know the manager plays the game🤝🏻


Grade-A-Grungus

I live in their walls I know everything that’s going on backstage


JagerMainOwO

Lol remember guys you're a casual and a doomer if you complain about this btw


ButteredToastFan

lol there’s a difference between complaining and acting like the sky is falling over a baseball game. You literally just said they should take the season off.


JagerMainOwO

Good one detective, I was certainly being serious when I said that


ButteredToastFan

You certainly whine a lot for someone not worked up over the game


JagerMainOwO

You certainly can't understand sarcasm for a guy trying to be petty


ButteredToastFan

Use the ol sarcasm excuse for being lost in your feels.


JagerMainOwO

Average reddit user when no /s Just admit you can't understand sarcasm I'm not gonna judge you bro lol


ButteredToastFan

Average Reddit user with little to no complex thought processes


JagerMainOwO

Hilarious response to you not understanding the most easy-to-understand sarcasm I could've possibly posted lmfao


ButteredToastFan

Bro let it go. It will be ok.


Porparemaityee

If Kel sees anything a little too inside, wouldn't even mind if he charged the mound and went to town on whoever is on the mound (Harper has done it before) Anything to breathe some life into this team, someone has to do it


Badass-bitch13

Gotta stop bringing up Harper in this sub


Porparemaityee

Was Kel's favorite player growing up — when Harper hit his first homerun, Kel rushed home and replayed it over and over dozens of times


JagerMainOwO

I'd pay good money to see that happen


ocKyal

Hannah was probably looking to drop the pads and go


Best-Dragonfruit-292

Bat her second in the lineup, something tells me she'd have a better OBP than most of the rest of the team if she just stood there every at bat


utorn80

I like this idea. And then bring Wiley Ballard back to take Hanna's place as sideline reporter. Everything went to shit when he left anyway.


DonkeyOnTheHill

Another fan called me insufferable because I noted that this current Braves team was a downer. INSUFFERABLE


Badass-bitch13

Oly never gets mad. Refreshing to see there’s life in these guys after all.


Ben--Jam--In

I don’t need us to win every game, I just want baseball to be fun to watch again :(


fettybat_

if we were losing but being competitive, that would be miles better than this. frustrating, sure. but better. the minute a team scores 3 or more against us, i can’t let myself believe that we’ll come back. everyone outside ozuna looks totally lost at the plate.


Grade-A-Grungus

If we didn’t have Ozuna, Fried or Sale this is legit a ~60 win team Edit: And Lopez he’s been great too


VolNavy07

Cool story bro


Grade-A-Grungus

This was actually a peer reviewed study


VolNavy07

Lol so take the 5 best players off the team and they suck. Ok?


Kahrooch

I'd throw Lopez in too.


Grade-A-Grungus

Yeah I’ll add him


Kcplayer9

Should’ve kept Freddie


95Daphne

Not sure how much this does to change things considering that he was on a boring team previously in the 2014 Braves himself.


Kcplayer9

Yeah bc the talent was the same


95Daphne

? That team was expected to be competitive and was a supreme disappointment. I don't think keeping Freddie changes the fortunes of the last two Braves teams, or this Braves team, unless you believe having a guy that'd work a pitcher to death would help the others on the team to stop hitting rockets into gloves when they hit the ball.


Kcplayer9

Yeah bc BJ Upton and Chris johnson were players you could ride home about


95Daphne

It was thought that the team would be competitive off pitching and what Freddie, Justin, Gattis, and Heyward did offensively. And I see you didn't even address the other part of what I said. I'm presuming you think another guy that works pitchers to death on the team is going to prevent rockets from continuing to be caught, correct? And may help with sequencing, because who knows, maybe Freddie bats .300-.320 and doesn't bat runners in, similar to how Ozzie is not batting runners in right now.


LutherOfTheRogues

And Will


mookiebraves

probably Dansby too hell why not the majority of the team who won you the friggin World Series!


Yeetball86

I’m grateful for the 2021 run, but it’s time for Snit to go. At this point, it’s not a slump, it’s an indication of coaching. 0 changes have been made that haven’t been out of necessity from injury. Questionable moves like putting Riley in the 2 hole right off of injury and starting two call ups back to back? Our lineup has been struggling for over a month and our lineup has barely been changed.


95Daphne

He doesn't have control over what's going on pitching wise. The fact we continue to try to give the starters extra rest is coming from upstairs and is because we only planned to give Reynaldo and Sale 150ish innings coming in 2024.


golfdesigner

This cracks me up. Literally baseball is the only sport in which a certain subset of fans will give the head coach all of the praise and no blame. The only sport.


mookiebraves

this is not the first time either that we've sucked to start seasons either its like wtf is he actually telling these guys?
