Title: Re: Will the Braves blow their Wild Card playoff chances Post by: Hannibal Lecter, MD on September 18, 2011, 10:41:14 PM It's 3 1/2 games, Jamos. I think you guys will be ok. I was just glad my Dodgers got back to .500 for the first time in forever today. Beat the lowly Pirates 15-1.
Title: Re: Will the Braves blow their Wild Card playoff chances Post by: Jamos on September 19, 2011, 09:01:41 PM Braves lose again on a 2 out, 2 strike, 2 run home run and the Marlins win 6-5. Cards beat Philly 4-3.
Now they have a 2 1/2 lead with 8 games to go, sorry about yesterdays report. :D Title: Re: Will the Braves blow their Wild Card playoff chances Post by: Chechem on September 19, 2011, 09:11:56 PM I confess that I'm not a very good Braves fan once football season starts. 2 1/2 games, eh? That's enough.
I'll check back after the Florida game.

Title: Re: Will the Braves blow their Wild Card playoff chances Post by: Marshal Dillon on September 20, 2011, 04:27:15 PM I thought they were a shoo-in for the playoffs but now I'm not so sure. The offense just isn't taking care of business. The pitching has to be getting tired after having carried the team all year.

The Cards have gotten hot and we need the Braves to get back on track and win 5 out of 6, 7 of 10, etc. Title: Re: Will the Braves blow their Wild Card playoff chances Post by: ricky023 on September 20, 2011, 09:50:14 PM I am afraid this is going to be another regular season for the Braves. They always seem to falter at the end of the season. They almost lost the last year. They just don't have the manager and the players don't have the want to like they use to. RTR!

Title: Re: Will the Braves blow their Wild Card playoff chances Post by: bamaphil on September 27, 2011, 05:50:04 AM I had the mlb.com gamecast on in my second class this morning so I could follow the Astros/Cards game. Normally it's soundless, but I didn't know that it would occasionally automatically play video highlights.

Quote Greatest quotes from new Florida Marlins manager Ozzie Guillen! If I ever have to go to Chicago again I will Fu@king puke! Ozzie Guillen, the former Chicago White Sox manager who will be introduced this week as the new Marlins manager, is apt to say almost anything. Here is an OzFest of his greatest hits. On himself (Part I): "I'm not a quitter. When I want to quit, I'll do a lot of stupid things and make sure they fire me and get paid." On himself (Part II): "I'm the Charlie Sheen of baseball without the drugs and a prostitute." On Wrigley Field (Part I): "You are going to take batting practice and the rats are bigger than pigs out there. You want to take a look? I think the rats are lifting weights." On Wrigley Field (Part II): "I puke every time I go there." On his wife, Ibis: "What attracted me to my wife is she's hot. She's also nice, she's a great mom - but that comes after she's hot." On a headline about the Twins visiting Chicago: "Even my wife told me Minnesota is coming to town. I said, 'Good, you dating somebody from there?' Who cares?" On former White Sox reliever Scott Linebrink, who once told Guillen he was too ill to pitch: "I believe him because he's a real religious guy. Someone else tells me they have a migraine, I know they are hung over."

I've never seen so many teams collapse at the end. Of all the teams in a playoff chase, the Red Sox are the only ones winning their game tonight.

In my game of interest tonight, Matt Kemp just missed his 39th homer (instead it was a double to deep center). Hope the young fella makes it to 40/40.
