Open Thread 9/25: Braves at Nationals

Atlanta Braves at Washington Nationals, Sep 25, 2009 7:05 PM EDT


The Braves begin possibly the most important stretch of games of the season... against the worst team in baseball. Interesting that our most important games in these last few days are against such a non-contender... but for some reason that scares the living sh*t out of 98% of Braves fans.

Remember to vote in the Fan Confidence Poll (it was buried by several other posts after being posted this morning).

Im terrified for this game

Ah. This series is truly the biggest of the year. Thing is…every time we say its a big series, we either lose the series or get swept.

What makes you think...

they “overlooked” the Reds? I’m pretty sure these guys have played enough baseball to know any team can beat any other team on a given night. Just because we as fans may dismiss an opponent as not any good doesn’t mean the players do as well. I think they were doing their best to beat the Reds. Sometimes it doesn’t go your way. Hopefully this weekend will go the Braves’ way.

i dunno..

but 4 runs scored in 3 games against Micah Owings (5.21 ERA), Kip Wells (4.84 ERA), Bronson Arroyo (3.95 ERA) doesn’t seem like playoff baseball during the stretch run either..

thats what im kinda scared about

they have all these unknown guys and former Braves…and those are the guys who seem to always beat us. Willie Harris always kills us.

At least Nyger F’ing Morgan isnt playing. That guy always kills us.

Let's be honest

I look at their 3-4-5, and I’d much rather have that in the middle than our 3-4-5. (though I’d still like Escobar to be in the line-up somewhere).

It’s just the rest of the line-up that we have to our advantage.

This is a huge game. The professional, championship-contending Braves team needs to come out with some fire and decisively take this team down in the first few innings. It is do or die.

Right before the Aug 31 deadline, Sox put Thome, Dye, and Contreras up for auction. Contreras went to the Rockies, Thome went to the Dodgers.
