TB has been picked by a lot of people to compete for a WS win this year, they're freaking good. But so far they've caught our low end of the rotation, it's time for our top two studs to step up and silence them and show we can compete still too.

I wonder what made it click for Charlie Morton later in his career. He has had three good yrs in a row
Part of it had to be he being healthier and of course pitching on better teams in Houston and now Tampa
By today's standards, based on his record since 2017 this guy has turned into a stud, very reliable
Rememberance of the Nate Mc Louth deal, brilliant and giddy for Braves fans at the time but that was one that did not work like it should have.

These next two games are a real character test.
It’s time to either sh*t or get thrown down the elevator shaft.

Can't afford to get swept again imo.

The problem now is that, yes, with Soroka and Fried going the next two, we could win both and be feeling good. Then, we have Newk, whoever and Wright going and those good feelings will disappear like a poot in the wind ... and probably leave behind a bad smell as well.

We already have Matt Adams hitting 5th in our lineup every day, enough to depress anyone, so it's just meh at this point.
