Mike, great point comparing the ‘91 season to this one!

Matt Wieters has passed through waivers, but just as the Nats. pulled Mark Reynolds back from the Braves(if he passes again, they can’t pull him back and he is only owed 209k), Natties will want some value for a SH veteran backstop.

Gio Gonzalez will command a top tier prospect, in the least. Zimmerman cleared, also.

A reliever-closer i would like to see the Braves take a look at in the offseason would be Shane Greene of the Detroit Tigers. Shane Greene has 27 saves with a 3.78 ERA and a record of 2-5.

Another closer that might be a guy for the Braves to look at would be reliever-closer Roberto Osuna of the Toronto Blue Jays. He's got 9 saves with a 2.93 ERA

Another reliever that would be worth the Braves looking at would be Reisel Iglesias of the Cincinnati Reds. He's got 22 saves with a 2.22 ERA. I would love for the Braves to trade for former Braves closer Craig Kimbrel of the Boston Red Sox. He's got 37 saves and has a 2.47 ERA.

Charlie comes through. 2-0 Bravos.

Wow Sean Newcomb is walking way too many batters

 

[MikeJackets1967]

Nice DP

RONALD ACUNA HITS A 431 FOOT MISSILE BY THE BUD SIGN and the Braves lead the Marlins 3-0 in the 3rd inning

 

[Milwaukee]

My favorite Brave of all time and he's just a rookie.

My favorite Brave of all time and he's just a rookie.

He reminds me of Ken Griffey Jr

 

[Milwaukee]

He has soooooo much Andruw Jones swag in him it's scary.

That's my favorite Brave. Acuna keeps playing like this though and he might top Andruw.

He definately fields like Andruw

 

[MikeJackets1967]

Why have replay at all if you can't sort out the obvious plays?

That's f***ing ridiculous. That's so obvious.

Good call. Andruw was such a pimp. So much fun to watch, hes gotta be up there with my faves as well.

 

[MikeJackets1967]

That's f***ing ridiculous. That's so obvious.

The Head Umpires don't want to show up their fellow Umpires

 

[MikeJackets1967]

Too bad Jose Urena didn't pitch tonight it would have been interesting

 

[Milwaukee]

Is he scheduled in the series?
