RF Starling Marte
SS Francisco Lindor
1B Pete Alonso
DH Daniel Vogelbach

RHP Max Scherzer

Braves Lineup

RF Acuña Jr.
SS Swanson
3B Riley
1B Olson
DH Ozuna
C Contreras
CF Harris II
2B Grissom
LF Grossman

RHP Jake Odorizzi

Time for the bats to wake up. Scherzer brings a different kind of energy to things. Will be great to get a look at Baty tonight. Probably, the best lineup tonight we've sported all year, even discounting Baty's expectations. Big game! LFGM!

Need to at least take 1 of 2 to avoid disaster  
moze1021 : 8/17/2022 7:18 pm : link
But of course winning 2 and we leave as if nothing even happened

Now on to Baty... Pretty awesome that the guy went from HS to the bigs in 3 years!! Granted he was old for a high school senior but impressive nonetheless. Texted all the non baseball friends who were with me when we were on plane from Austin to NYC with Baty the day before the draft to let them know he made it.
That's how you start things off

Marte BOMB.

Makes him almost as productive as Escobar has been all season!!

(I’m kidding. Sort of)
Wow

Congrats young man, welcome to the bigs!!!
That's our third baseman!  
Optimus-NY : 8/17/2022 7:48 pm : link
He'll be here for a decade plus if healthy, God willing. I would keep him up here honestly. Escobar is an automatic out at this point.
He's very aptly named. Brett, we're glad to see you on the Mets

It's basically true though.
Was that the first pitch ?

2nd.

But yes , he needs to sit. It would be one thing if he sucked with the bat but stellar with the glove, but he’s been shitty on both ends.
Ahhhh

So Freeman like
Even did it in his park…
Loved the shot of his family..  
moze1021 : 8/17/2022 7:57 pm : link
And the transformation you could see him his father...going from just absolutely, insanely stressed and anxious to complete elation as the ball sailed over the wall.. can't even imagine how that must have felt for him, watching his son do that... Incredible. Congrats Clint and Leslie Baty, you raised a big leaguer.
Crazy thing is  
KDavies : 8/17/2022 8:00 pm : link
Baty didn’t hit that all that well/hard. Not saying that to put him down by any means. Just saying he’s hit balls a lot better than that and that was a HR. Kid is good
Haha!  
Optimus-NY : 8/17/2022 8:04 pm : link
Eff the Barfs and Odirizi whatever
just catching up and he crushed that ball  
Eric on Li : 8/17/2022 8:07 pm : link
this is why you give talent a chance when the alternative is AAAA players (or players who have had hundreds of at bats to get on track and havent).

has he had any action at 3b yet?

Nice post. Wonderful for his family, they must be so proud of him.
Wow  
moze1021 : 8/17/2022 8:14 pm : link
Terrible.

Absolutely terrible
Well that fucking blows  
speedywheels : 8/17/2022 8:16 pm : link
Stupid rain
So who can replace max to pitch?  
Ten Ton Hammer : 8/17/2022 8:17 pm : link

i know it sucks but if the delay drags they have to hold scherzer out  
Eric on Li : 8/17/2022 8:18 pm : link
cannot risk him in an august game. Even if it blows up Williams, May, Ottavino, Diaz to get this one locked down.

would still have Lugo, Joely, and Givens (plus Nogosek/Clay) for tomorrow.
2nd time in 3 games they can't get through the 3rd before  
pjcas18 : 8/17/2022 8:21 pm : link
a rain delay.

Don't they know the forecast? why not just push the start back?

If I were the Braves I'd be eager to get the game started and get the Mets starters out of the game.

Gary said the forecast didn't include rain.

Williams threw 2 innings on Sunday. I'd think he can give them at least 1 and maybe 2.

May hasn't pitched since Saturday so he should be good for 1 or 2.

Ottavino threw 4 pitches on Sunday and had saturday off before that. He should be good for 1 or 2.

Diaz last pitched saturday so 2 days off.

7 innings left.
Williams, May, Ottavino x2.
Diaz 1.

Joely had a day off yesterday so he's probably an option too.
Nobody said any of this would be easy  
Chris684 : 8/17/2022 8:26 pm : link
Whatever happens with the weather tonight we have a 4 run head start.

Take today by whatever means necessary and worry about tomorrow, tomorrow.
