@EddyOnAir @Joshua_Newman This man would like a word…

@gvedak any insight on what Briggs McKenzie’s injury is? Haven’t seen it reported anywhere.

[Greg Ott @GregOtt31]

Losing Ted Turner, Bobby Cox and even one-time Braves radio announcer John Sterling in the same week is just a brutal series of gut punches. The core of the Braves on TBS that made me a lifelong fan.

I joined ISU Athletics 18 years ago as an intern, the lowest on the totem pole in the department. Jamie Pollard met with me, 1 on 1, and was invested in relationships with staff. Just as gracious when I left for a full-time position 5 months later. I’ve never forgotten any of it.

I have always been impressed with Jamie Pollard. He runs a great @CycloneATH Department. Need more like him.

MOOOOOOOOODDDDDDDDDDDD

Forget just balls and strikes. I’m ready to just go full robot umpires… and eject Henry Davis for this intentional, non-baseball play.

[Platinum Key @PlatinumKey13]

Braves Manager Brian Snitker was just ejected after Matt Olson was called out for batter's interference

[Greg Ott @GregOtt31]

@CJNitkowski That’s my Arizona Fall League MVP…

[Greg Ott @GregOtt31]

Reason #8352 for robo umps: Clint Vondrak. At least there was replay review to overturn him at first and end the game last night.

[Greg Ott @GregOtt31]

@liltatetate @BaseballAmerica @Braves …and only drafted that low because he needed Tommy John surgery before throwing a pitch as a pro.

@kj_franko @CBBWagers I’m right here, Kyle!

@OneandOnlyGregV I’m not sure if you’ve heard, Greg, but it’s harder to win an RSC than a tournament.

[Greg Ott @GregOtt31]

@OneandOnlyGregV …but he’s got 🔥 pregame pics and 7,000 followers on the IG. And after a great conversation with an “agent” who’s graciously offered to only take 20% of his potential future earnings, it is in fact, God’s plan.

Me, to UCLA Public Address Announcer: I have to mention… we’re the Broncs, not the Broncos.

PA Announcer: Oh, I know. Remember, you’re in LA. A Bronco is what drives down the 405 freeway.

Our first win of the day goes to the UCLA public address announcer.

[Greg Ott @GregOtt31]

Ok Phillies… nobody say, “Attaboy Megill!” in the clubhouse. The media will run with it and he’ll stare you down on his next home run on Tuesday.

[Greg Ott @GregOtt31]

This is just embarrassing. As if the Braves’ offense wasn’t having enough trouble, enter Erich Bacchus.

[Greg Ott @GregOtt31]

@MilesMcQuiggan I don’t know him… but with that energy, I can see a rest stop gas fill up, getting out of the car despite mandated New Jersey fuel attendant and chatting up said attendant about how they don’t make them like they used to.

[Greg Ott @GregOtt31]

@spelledwithaZ It was my pleasure to read this.

[Greg Ott @GregOtt31]

@DOBrienATL @EOF34 I’m listening to @755ForeverPod now and thinking about the question of what makes a 1st Rounder successful. Does contributing to a WS alone make Ian Anderson and Kyle Wright hits that high in the draft or would you consider them misses?
