“That was special tonight. Just completely dominant...He was awesome. I mean, that was like ace-worthy. Super-ace worthy, right? Especially at this point in the year, in a big game like that." -- Dansby Swanson on Max Fried

Every game is a must now. Philly is pretty much unstoppable now. Part of it is due to a cup cake schedule but they took care of their business and our guys did not Those two one run losses at home vs Colorado and that loss to the Diamondbacks has put the Braves where they are and made life more difficult than it has to be Three more game lead would put us in the drivers seat but they could not get the job done. No excuses are acceptable our guys not good enough

Our pitchers believe in giving up the whole enchilada when they give up a hit, don't they?

You're not a guy to be in a foxhole with, that's for damn sure.

I am getting to the point where I agree with one of the posters that says Ynoa is no more than a long reliever
Not that good since his comeback from injury, I get wins are not what they used to be but in 8 starts you should be able to win one or two games heh?
And going 6, its been a little while.
All the signs of 2011 are there. Unacceptable

You're not a guy to be in a foxhole with, that's for damn sure. Pls let me know what is so over the top with this post. I would say its more fact, we know what Philly is doing and those 3 games I pointed out well, those were winnable games that should have been won. Is that really over the top. This team is not doing its job - well not proficiently anyway And Philly did get the benefit of the later season schedule

The Phillies are unstoppable??? You don't think that's over the top? Geezus. Worst case scenario we're tied with them in the loss column when we play them at home.

Ynoa looked like a fool trying to bunt there. That was absolutely pitiful.

The Phillies are doing exactly what the Braves did during their extended winning streak...they are cashing in on playing the worst teams in the league. The Braves built their division lead by mopping up on the dregs of the division, and so are the Phillies. They'll enter the series with each other virtually tied. Then it will be for all the marbles. Whoever comes out ahead will be cannon fodder for the Brewers.

As of late they have chased us down to where they could be a half game up when they face us. They have been unstoppable as of late. I do not like that. Even if its cupcake teams they are winning and we have had enough coulda woulda shoulda. Not that we are playing the worst ball in the league but those 3 games I mentioned just took defeat out of the hands of victory Too close for comfort. But it was nice to get a couple of runs without being too HR happy this inning. I am not confident they will beat Philly head to head at home. Its 50/50. I would prefer less drama and they likely will win tommorrow.

Ynoa had a much better inning. 3 up and 3 down.

I will enjoy it so long as we win its the only outcome that can be enjoyed. I expect nothing in the playoffs but cannot stand a choke aka 2011. No game is a good game when you lose.

I don't think your preferences are part of the equation. It's baseball. Played by human beings. Human beings have good days and bad days, and they make mistakes. Yeah, we lost some games we should have won, but that's over. You gotta move forward.
