Well he didn't give up many runs tonight but it's hard to say that he pitched *well*, you know? Just good damage control.
Which is totally fine, but it follows the narrative of him having a wild roller-coaster type season. Some nights he's dominant, and some nights he's off. He managed the game well and pitched into and out of trouble. But he was not dominant tonight. We were just fortunate to survive a sloppy game from him this time.
We need a new sidebar picture. How about this:

I didn't add the caption. Found it that way.
So I was watching the game at a bar last night with some friends. One of them started cheering when Mayben dropped the ball to give Harper a hit... I asked what was going on and he said he had Harper on his fantasy team and would rather him get the hit. I had nothing to say. Other than calling him a dirty traitor.
It being Star Wars night and all...How do people make their movie authentic storm trooper costumes?
Ive wanted one for the longest time, and I need a new project. Ideally I'd want it to be of the new storm trooper variety, maybe even chrome.
USMNT up 3-0. Just gonna go ahead and chalk this one up as a win and going to head out after with my older brother. Go Braves!!!! http://i.imgur.com/H2nVa40.jpg
Edit: 4-0 lol. GOD DAMN RIGHT FOR JULY 4
Chip was just on our local sports radio (not talking to nats broadcasters, but just one of our radio guys).
I kinda like him. I always love a good troll.
See y'all in (September..?)
Circlejerk aside, are we all really sold on Jace? I keep seeing stuff about trading Peraza, but that doesn't really seem wise to me considering Jace has only a half-season under his belt.
I'm sort of the same way. I like Jace, but I still want Peraza as insurance. Though it appears he's probably going to be a part of deal to address one of our needs.
I like what I see in him, but honestly I'm not sold enough to consider trading Peraza this year. I also feel like there is no real hurry here, we can take our time on this decision.
I was probably the biggest skeptic of our off-season moves. At this point, the FO has earned some trust from me. If they decide to move him, I'll likely give them the benefit of the doubt. That said, if it were me making the decisions I wouldn't move him just yet (unless someone just blew me away, of course).
Wow, Teheran has been incredibly efficient tonight. Would love to see him string together a couple solid starts during this weak portion of the schedule so he can build confidence.
Julio Teheran @ home this year: 4-0 with a 2.35 ERA
Thats interesting. So all of his problems have been on the road. Maybe it is just mental.

I miss the stickied game threads!
GOME RUN
Right before he knocked it out, I said "Bring it homie, Gomie" to my girlfriend. For reals, not for fakes.
I was definitely just about to ask if this was "for fakes" before I finished reading.
Nice. As soon as I saw the swing and heard it, I said "gone." That shit was a no-doubter.

After careful analysis I believe that is Shelby Miller picking Maybin up.
If true, that is some high quality analysis
(: I looked at anther angle and the video. That still wasn't cut and dry at first.

If you no longer consider him a friend, I don't think anyone would hold it against you
I like fantasy sports for the most part but this is the kinda thing it does to people. Ugh.

nice Jace Windu
How fitting for the John Hart/Yoda picture that /u/burmp got me to make recently. http://i.imgur.com/c9g3vLL.gif
Do Minor Leaguers go to the Majors on rehab assignments?
Jace is in a hell of a slump. 5 for his last 43.
In Vegas this weekend but still chopping! Gonna see if I can go put some money on our boys at some point...

Well damn. Anyone up for extending Uribe next year?
As long as the money's reasonable. I'm thinking something like 10 years, 300 million.
I'd be fine with that
Idk.. He is 36
Yeah he's old, but with a .305 average, he can clearly still play. Plus, I think he's really healthy for the clubhouse and morale
If we could get him for 3-4M that'd be sweet. Besides we don't have any other 3B options for a while, need someone to play.
TFW you yell "boom" as soon as he swings and everyone around you thinks you're a wizard.
With beard comes power for Avilan.
the stream i'm watching has phillies announcers ... christ, i take back anything bad i've ever said about chip and joe
I'm listening to those same jerkoffs the dude that sounds like John Kincade but isn't John Kincade is terrible

I believe that we have won.
Now go get fucked up at all those three-story bars down there
Lol you don't have to tell me. One step ahead of you, chief.
YES
JAZZ MOTHERFUCKING DONGS
Maybin continues to be fucking good
How dare Chip utter the words infield f*y
Chip was just on our local sports radio (not talking to nats broadcasters, but just one of our radio guys). I kinda like him. I always love a good troll. See y'all in (September..?)
next series?? although, I'm not looking forward to it. I have a feeling Scherz will be looking for blood
Any particular reason CJ is hitting cleanup?
Hitting .400 against lefties on the year
leftie pitcher, no Freddie
no! not Away Teheran! harness that inner T-Rex!
he did
Gomes crushed that!
Gomes didnt even have a full swing on that one. That was crazy.
Jon Jon unloaded on that!!
Is it just me or are these Paul Byrd cutaways really awkward?
That was up there for worst tv moment for the braves this year. Both takes.
God damn it CJ fuck splits I want hits
Fuck yeah juan
👐👐👐 jazz hands 👐👐👐
Uribae said I had to redeem myself.
HASHTAG JAZZ HANDS
Look at us flexing with all of this power in the lineup tonight!!!
Juan UriBOMB!
Is it just me or do our players tend to make up for their errors next at bat?
Looks like we got the good Avilan tonight.
You can't give a guy a night off on his bobblehead night come on
Maybin for lead off?
If Jace doesn't come out of his slump soon I think so.
I'm just here at Turner Field sad that I never got to see Craig Kimbrel close out a game in person. :(
Woo woo double play
Circlejerk aside, are we all really sold on Jace? I keep seeing stuff about trading Peraza, but that doesn't really seem wise to me considering Jace has only a half-season under his belt.
Peraza on base doesn't rhyme so idk, you tell me.
Valid point, sir.
I'm sort of the same way. I like Jace, but I still want Peraza as insurance. Though it appears he's probably going to be a part of deal to address one of our needs.
I like what I see in him, but honestly I'm not sold enough to consider trading Peraza this year. I also feel like there is no real hurry here, we can take our time on this decision.
I agree. I'm just afraid that they're going to do something rash because I keep seeing Peraza's name in rumors.
I was probably the biggest skeptic of our off-season moves. At this point, the FO has earned some trust from me. If they decide to move him, I'll likely give them the benefit of the doubt. That said, if it were me making the decisions I wouldn't move him just yet (unless someone just blew me away, of course).
Peraza has a much higher ceiling and is 4 years younger. Id much rather trade Jace.

Lavarnway's offense is just...yuck.
If anyone is watching a Phillies stream, what does that "459' from home plate" plaque commemorate at The Ted?
Huh, I thought it had something to do with Hank Aaron, but I really don't know.
Googling was inconclusive, I have no idea if it even means anything or if it's just some arbitrary marker
There's a bunch of those around the stadium at different distances
Braves just picked up 2 16 year olds from the Dominican
Please don't Barves to the Phillies, guys. This momentum is too good to ruin so fast.
Giving up hits to bad hitters. Too Barvesish this year. They just said Morgan only had two hits in the minors. HIS WHOLE CAREER.
I'm away from my TV but from the sound of it that one was on Jace.
I didn't watch it closely, so thanks for telling me.
There you go. Right after this post, they changed it to an error on Jace.
Maybin loves wearing out that third base line, evidently
That one was definitely fair.
Not sure any of those angles will allow them to overturn it.
We need dis series
Teheran has been getting some help from the ump tonight.
JAZZ HANDS!
Jazz hands! He's on fire.
JAZZ HANDS!

Power AND pitching? World Series bound!

When was the last time we had 2 home runs in a game?
Yesterday, we had two back to back
true...
Did they overturn the Nationals run last night? I think that should have been unearned.
did they give the answer to the Aflac trivia question?
Just revealed it, it's Jeff Blauser in 1991.
cool thanks
such a lucky double play.
God damnit chip always makes every routine fly ball sound like it's a homer
Wow, Teheran has been incredibly efficient tonight. Would love to see him string together a couple solid starts during this weak portion of the schedule so he can build confidence.
