Hopefully this is the last time we sign / acquire Robertson.

To use an oldie but a goodie: fixed.

David_Criss 2022-10-11 16:53:24 UTC #67

How long do these injuries take to recover from?

zambonir 2022-10-11 17:26:36 UTC #68

He got a PRP but some people think those are snake oil anyway. He's out for this series at minimum (by rule, even, I guess?)

el-pietro 2022-10-11 17:44:43 UTC #69

I think he could come back on if someone else got injured?

Damnit all the decently priced tickets for Friday are bought up.

BaseballCat 2022-10-11 20:02:13 UTC #71

Fridays game listed as 4:37pm.

Aquapong 2022-10-11 21:02:44 UTC #72

Not a single prime time game in the series.

julio 2022-10-11 21:16:02 UTC #73

Doesn't matter when we win them — just that we win them!

andyb 2022-10-11 21:21:13 UTC #74

They are always going to put the Yankees and Dodgers in prime time. Assume the if necessary games could be moved though I'd be happy if we never get that far.

Aquapong 2022-10-12 00:17:28 UTC #75

True, but kind of insulting for two big market teams…one of them the reigning WS Champs.

I think today's game is the most important game of the year. Are we over hyping the Wheeler, Nola games coming up? the Phils rapped around the braves #1, will the Braves return the favor? The Braves are still the returning kings and won't go quietly. if wheels doesn't have his stuff, the crystal ball sees 8-6 Braves today( most runs scored on the bullpen), 3-1 Braves on Friday (Nola pitches great but no run support) and 6-2 Braves at the Bank to finish the series. it's been a great season. regarding the line up, I wouldn't touch the first six (don't fix what isn't broken). if they lose today and Hoskins keeps failing, maybe a change is due. Long Ball? Schwarbs drops? we'll see. hopefully the crystal ball can be put in the closet.

gm, I'd throw your crystal ball out of a very high window above a hard cement sidewalk...

gmwannabe 2022-10-12 14:12:18 UTC #78

I just might.

zambonir 2022-10-12 14:39:47 UTC #79

When you think that way GM you truly can't be disappointed.

Weather might be an issue today - but that could affect both starters.

This will be a hard one to win but I don't think they'll lose this series in 4. In 5, maybe. But if it goes right today they could also sweep or win in four.

Aquapong 2022-10-12 14:48:40 UTC #80

Yeah weather could play a part or they could move to tomorrow.

zambonir 2022-10-12 14:52:57 UTC #81

I don't think anyone (the teams, MLB, the network) wants to lose the off day. Lots of tweets already suggesting they start Thor/bullpen game today. They could also go with Falter/bullpen initially and let Wheeler make the start after any delay. But it's not like it wouldn't be the same issue for the Braves.

Of course if Wheeler and Wright both start and then are unable to return they theoretically become available for a few innings in a Game 5 (and probably would be regardless).

A drawn-out game probably gets us that Nelson or Gibson appearance we don't want.
