2024 MLB Thread

Ron Washington, who was Braves third base coach for several years and loved by the players, just dropped a truth bomb.... I love it

In an interview with the Los Angeles Times this week, Washington claimed the franchise “forgot” to acquire big-league talent for the 2024 season.
“We’re going to get some baseball players who may not be superstars, but they know how to play,” Washington told the LA Times. “We forgot to bring real baseball players into the organization. Nothing against those guys here, but they’re not big-league baseball players, and they certainly can’t help us win a championship.”

Well, the Phillies sort of limped home in finishing up the regular season. I think getting the first round bye will be very beneficial in helping them heal up and recharge. Suarez has become the latest 'concern' as he has not been able to recover from the back injury that took him out of the lineup in late June, and since 'returning' has not been the same. Hopefully, they can figure it out, but for now it appears they will be left with Wheeler, Sanchez and Nola as the 'solid three'. Maybe Turnbull returns from his ailments, but I would be surprised the could go more than 4 or 5 innings.

If Braves and Mets split, both are in and Dbacks are out

Arizona needs a Braves or Mets sweep to get in

Question…Did Nimmo lollygag his way down the first base line allowing the Braves to complete a double play that cemented their win? Looked like it to me.

good question, the Braves are just lucky to be in the playoffs with so many key players being injured this year

Acuna
Strider
Riley

all out, and Harris and Albies both missed several months

and now Chris Sale suddenly can't pitch due to back problems and was left off the playoff roster

Damn shame for Wheeler. The guy is a stud. The Phils' bats might as well be used for studs. Sanchez better have is 'A' game tomorrow and the rest of the bats better wake up.
