GDT: 2020 NLDS: (2) Atlanta Braves vs (6) Miami Marlins - ATL wins 3-0

[darko]

Well about that, they now have some work to do.

Got them right where they want them.

 

[darko]

Imagine getting Alcantara for two seasons of Ozuna... Gallen was part of that trade, too.

He's filthy and pales in comparison to Sixto.

 

[ZMan17]

As a Mets fan I was fine when we dumped D'Arnaud and would have made that move 10 times out of 10...but definitely didn't expect him to turn it around like he's done with the Braves.

 

[BKIslandersFan]

Marlins completely falling apart.

 

[DonkeyHotay]

Wearing no pants

 

[John Price]

Marlins blew it

 

[Canes]

Of course the Braves bullpen had to make it interesting.

The Braves can't lose game 1's anymore.

So yeah......in hindsite, probably not a good idea to hit Acuna with that pitch. Seemed to really jumpstart the Braves. This game is exactly what my brain feared going in. Braves hitters just have our number.

 

[AtlantaWhaler]

Fried was not sharp. Marlins had his number all day. Happy to escape with a victory. Acuna beam definitely added jet fuel to the Braves.

I read somewhere that Acuna is 2x more likely to be HBP against the Marlins than any other team. Their pitchers certainly don't like him hitting 450 ft homers off of him, that's for sure. He rightfully pimps his homers considering no matter what he does, he gets thrown at.

I still have the utmost faith in Fried, just tonight wasn't his night and the offense and bullpen really picked him up like they rarely had to do all season.

 

[Canes]

lol

 

[Quid Pro Clowe]

Funny to see the Marlins and Braves basically swap roles from the Jose Fernandez homer a few years back.

Go Acuna. f*** Marlins pitching.

 

[Prominence Problem]

Maybe I'm in the minority here, but I absolutely love Buck Showalter as the colour guy.

 

[Prominence Problem]

The Marlins big boys are coming up here in the 8th. Bloop and a blast ties it.

 

[Canes]

3 shutouts in 4 games for the Braves pitching staff. Just like everyone predicted.

 

[c9777666]

All year long, the Braves pitching was a weak link.

suddenly, they can’t miss

 

[PanthersPens62]

Well it was a fun ride.......thanks for re-awakening my interest in MLB thus summer/fall, Marlins. Team has a bright future......just gotta work on improving the offense & especially power production.

 

[Filthy Dangles]

Adam Duvall walked but the umpire f***ed up the count, never seen that in a post season game.

 

[Canes]

Snitker and his bench coaches also fell asleep there. Pretty sure Duvall asked to clarify the count multiple times but there's only so much he can argue as a player. Even the commentators were confused. Glad it didn't end up meaning anything though.

Are you sure they won’t have a fire-sale again in the next couple of years?

 

[PanthersPens62]

This is not the Loria regime anymore. If they trade players it will be because they are not in contention, not just for the fun of it.(just like any other team not in contention does) Jeter has a solid plan and will run the team accordingly.

 

[Halladay]

Sixto a bit wild this inning.

Need to tag up there imo. Bad baserunning.

 

[Halladay]

d'Arnaud is on fire. 3-0.

 

[Filthy Dangles]

over. this Marlin offense ain't scoring 4 runs.
