1/n

@BravesColdTakes Down 0-2 in the series

[Ronald’s Goat @RonaldsGoat]

@luzthegoosey Danny young, a short porch HR, and a dumb balk call

[Ronald’s Goat @RonaldsGoat]

@Braves Braves actively rage baiting us with these losses

Dom has to challenge that pitch what are we doing

[Ronald’s Goat @RonaldsGoat]

This series is a perfect demonstration of why this team isn’t set up to win in October

[Ronald’s Goat @RonaldsGoat]

Danny young is the most dogshit pitcher since bummer

He needs to be DFAd

[Lindsay Crosby, big baseball guy @CrosbyBaseball]

NEWS: Hurston Waldrep was at Gwinnett Field today, cleaning out his locker and taking his stuff. Teammates were spotted looking at his elbow during various conversations

Feels like that's a bit of confirmation that he's likely not coming back this year

[Ronald’s Goat @RonaldsGoat]

Kim and Murphy are killing this team.

Kim should be DFAd and Murphy should ride the bench

[Ronald’s Goat @RonaldsGoat]

5.79 ERA for iggy post all star in 10 appearances, that is not good

[Atlanta Braves @Braves]

Final: Yankees 3, #Braves 2.

[Atlanta Braves @Braves]

Multi-homer game for @ronaldacunajr24! 🫡

[Stephen Tolbert @b_outliers]

I’d rather have Mateo’s speed (or better yet keep Bart around as a third catcher since Murphy can’t stay healthy anyway) than pretty much anything Kim provides from the bench

Now that I think about it, what exactly does Kim provide from the bench?

[Grant McAuley @grantmcauley]

I'd take a flyer on Matt Strahm.

[Ronald’s Goat @RonaldsGoat]

@b_outliers Shameful and infuriating that Alex just gave up on the season

[SportsTalkATL.com @SportsTalkATL]

I just don't know how you take Alex Anthopoulos as a serious GM anymore. Starting pitchers were moved left and right, and you couldn't get one, despite constantly talking about it being the biggest need.

22 games over .500, great/talented team in the middle of the core, actually decent prospect depth to deal from, and nothing. Braves BY FAR the biggest losers at the trade deadline. A total failure from the GM

[Brady Penn @bradypenn21]

Has to be frustrating for Braves fans seeing the Cubs add three impact starters while Atlanta is still searching for one

[Ben @brnt2470]

Braves added a platoon RH bat to replace a slightly worse platoon RH bat

A backend SP to replace a slightly worse backend SP

And a LHP reliever to replace essentially an equal LHP reliever.

How is this good enough?

[Ronald’s Goat @RonaldsGoat]

Said yes to be perpetual losers

[Gabe Burns @GabeBurnsAJC]

Alex Anthopoulos: “We said no to a lot of things. That’s not easy to do. But you have to do what you feel is right for the organization.”
