Ian was terrific - got a ton of soft ground balls with that great changeup of his. They took him out with a low pitch count after a wild pitch - seemed overly protective but better safe than sorry. I feel bad for Toukki, because he's apparently the odd man out in the rotation - they used him to mop up a 9-0 lead in the 9th. And the OF depth is crazy now with Eddie Rosario added to the mix and looking good. Gotta give the Braves credit for getting Soler and batting him second - having Freddie batting behind him ensures he gets lots of fastballs over the plate. Dude had 48 homers in 2019. :o

LA Dodgers tonight.
Braves are a good size underdog.
Smyly can lead us to victory.

Yup, AL homer champ Soler in 2019. Soler power, lol.. love that. This team has some toughness. I think we can make a run.

Disappointing game.
Our bullpen needs to be addressed this off-season. I don't expect us to add anybody expensive because our bats will need to be paid but we must find ways to improve our Pen.

Fried takes the mound for us today and faces Scherzer.

Our braves are a large underdog.

So, we will need to be at max capacity. Both starters will pitch at max velocity.

Ok, I'll keep my day job.

The Braves could have won the series, if the majority of the bullpen wasn't crap.

Charlie Morton has a $20 million dollar option that I expect us to pickup this off-season.
