Atlanta Braves 2026 season discussion. (1st half)

Payamps is to blame for that one.

they both are pretty terrible. Payamps is worse. Jose Suarez needs ti just go away.

I hate these bottom-of-the-barrel bullpen days. These guys just can't throw strikes consistently. If you don't have a 3-4 run lead, you are in trouble.

 

[DzynKingRTR]

Oh well. Rockies up next. Holmes, Sale, Strider will be on the mound.

This is probably the series we drop a series. We for whatever reason suck at that ballpark

Yeah, this one might get bad.

East Bound and Down pitcher needs to go away.

Well Holmes put us in an awful spot down 6-0 right out of the gate.

Boys have fought hard all night and tied it up 6-6 in the 8th!!

 

[BhamToTexas]

Magic Mike!!

 

[DzynKingRTR]

Braves win! I will take it!

Just heard Acuna left the game. Not watching. What happened?

Left hamstring tightness, I believe.

The only replay I saw was him limping, but looks like you are correct. Hopefully that is all it is. Dude just cannot stay healthy.

I love watching him play (obviously not against the Cubs). I hope this is not a lingering thing with him but with hamstrings, you never know.

Sale was awesome tonight. So was the offense.

Another series win!

Sale has been incredible and especially for his age.

He’s Top 10 in MLB in every major stat right now.

Drake, Ozzie, Olson and Harris are all hitting well.

Drake can flat just hit and is making a case to be my new favorite Braves player.

Also that Bunt single RBI was SICK!!!

I love old school small ball and this year we seem more willing to do it than any year in recent memory.

 

[DzynKingRTR]

Strider activated today. Acuna on IL.

Braves lose Acuña Jr. (left hamstring strain) to injured list

DENVER -- The Braves are flying high in the National League East with a 7 1/2-game lead entering Sunday, but they'll have to go it for a while without superstar outfielder Ronald Acuña Jr., who was placed on the 10-day injured list with a strained left hamstring. In addition, right-hander

Braves win! Sweep the Rockies!

 

[CrimsonNagus]

Another year, another Acuna injury. Dude has amazing talent but all these injuries are going to keep him from achieving MLB greatness. I’d hate to see him leave ATL but I’m not sure he will be worth the price tag he will demand because of all the injuries.

Acuna looks to be the Tua of baseball unfortunately. Hopefully this is just a short setback, and he can return after the DL stint. If they can stay healthy this year and make some bullpen moves, they might really make a run this season. We'll know more about this team once they play the Cubs and Dodgers coming up...

 

[BhamToTexas]

They said the hamstring pull was only a grade 1, so that is good news.
