Houston, We Have Rule Changes! The Official 2023 MLB Season Thread

This is how it goes. If the Braves can't get the top of the rotation to settle in they will have to outscore everyone the rest of the way. There's at least 8 or 9 teams I can see winning it all.

It's almost like someone on this board saw this potential flaw in the Braves roster back in the winter.

As much money as the Mets spent, Atlanta will probably still win the NL East division.

Spencer Strider is already looking like a stud.
Acuna is an MVP candidate if he's healthy.
And Riley might be the best 3B in the National League.

I would just say that for Atlanta, I have some concerns about how many starts they are going to get out of Charlie Morton.
He's 40 years old or close to it. And there's probably a noticeable drop off in starting pitching if he goes down.

I don't know how much they will get out of Soroka or Wright.

I also think Eddie Rosario will probably be cut or traded. He's just not a very good player anymore.
Maybe they trade for a short rental if they're convinced they are a WS favorite -- Happ/Renfrow/Pederson could make sense.
A bit of a heavier investment might be Alex Verdugo or Austin Slater.

Kyle Wright is a little above league average. His win total doesn’t mean much.
He could win 20. He could win 12.

Braves fans put a little too much hype into Grissom and Harris. They’ll be ok.

But yall wanted to doubt me and LOL smiley at all these messages questioning whether or not "I actually watch the Braves"

And again, everything I said has been true.

When did this happen? We've been discussing the rotation and bullpen all season in the season thread. We have been fully aware that the Braves have flaws despite whatever they win looks like 105 wins

Wow, RIP Tim Wakefield



I remember his knuckleball pitch..

@Regular_P End of Miggy career today How they never broke through and won a world Series is all time Detroit sports let down.

 

[blues_funk_reggae]

Time Wakefield died? Jesus Christ

I wonder if the Red Sox will retire his number considering he played there from 1995-2011. He did everything they asked him to do. 2 WS titles included.

Schilling is all the more a piece of shyt for leaking that info

I can't think of a bigger piece of shyt off the top of my head. I hope Wakefield got to curse him out before he died, or I hope the wife got to punch him for that.
