But seriously folks it's been raining like mad here today so this one might get delayed.
>>69047784
>timetable might be coming
>>69047806
It's raining outside? I haven't been outside for days. Help.
>that lack of attendance
Goddamn do I hate my fellow Atlantans.
>tfw I forgot to change the teams records in the OP
Didn't know Wisler was from Ohio. Good for him.
>>69047827
Aren't they even putting up a new stadium for the Braves? Why?
I mean the traffic sucks for the Indians but people kind of stopped spending money on games when the ownership stopped spending money on players.
>>69047862
DOLANZ CHEEP
ahh not a good start Santana!
>>69047815
"I will find ways to keep the Dolans in golden loafers."
>>69047862
Because my city is a city of fairweather fans. They don't care abut losing teams.
>>69047870
It is what it is. I'm not complaining, sure I'd like to spend more but that doesn't guarantee success either.
>>69047876
Where do you think Uribe got those shoes?
>>69047917
Payless
Frankie with another hit!
>>69047925
Don't forget that Kipnes has a 10 game hit streak
>Wisler
I just whistled the Braves' funeral march.
>>69047917
>>69047922
>live in da land
>lebron wins one for da land and indians are on a winning streak
>>69047941
I think Hammy said Lindor has a 10 game streak too.
Early score!
>It's another Indians win episode
>>69047951
>I'm 37 but I can't let go of my teenage years
I miss Bobby Cox. I miss the 90s. I miss winning. Fuck you Liberty Media for owning my team.
steal!
THEY KEEP HITTING
If you look closely you can see the precise moment in which the Braves died
>>69047961
Hammy just got confused. Lindor has a 3 game streak. Kip has 10 after that single.
Where is the skeleton wizard Wahoo fan??
>>69048013
>3 game streak
4, after his single
>>69047846
I was confused lel
>>69047957
>>69047996
The Braves were already dead lel.
Klubot lol.
>>69047806
>it's a tumblrette in the thread episode
Fuck off. Wahoo is a very happy man
I'm betting Kluber originally had an umlaut over the u.

>>69047806
Native americans don't really have a culture to appropriate. Unless you count wearing a t-shirt with a wolf painted on it, and turquoise jewelry and turkey feathers to a bike night.
>>69048160
Fuck yeah!
>>69047905
>>69047862
Turner Field is in the middle of niggerville and it's just not a good experience to go to the games. The only incentive to trudge through gridlock traffic and park/tailgate in the middle of a jungle is to watch a winning team. When the team is a year and half into a full, plainly stated rebuild at an expiring ballpark in the middle of what might as well be Haiti, people just aren't going to show up.
People who go to Braves and Hawks games don't live in the city. Attending these games are a huge hassle and that's why you usually go to only a few games a year per team.
Frankie!
what did I just witness
Lindor is top sexy
THE MADMAN
>>69048174
lol I'm half-native and there's literally nothing wrong with the Braves or Indians names.
>>69048178
I go to almost every home game every season. Nothing stops me. I'm there right now.
>>69048174
hey! Holing up in a trailer in a shithole desert and getting drunk for a month is a uniquely native american thing! Doug Stanhope stop stealing it!!!
>>69048174
sounds like a pretty solid look for a night out, desu senpai
LINDOR!!
>Alcides Escobar is better
>Xander Boegarts is better
>Carlos Correa is better
Sorry for hitting your player, Indians.
TYLER NO PLS
>>69048226
>Carlos Correa won Rookie of the Year
>>69048282
He's really good, too. As long as he's okay, we're fine
@ZackMeisel:
>Indians' TV ratings up 31% over this time last season. Last night's game vs ATL was highest-rated in two years. June '16 up 74% on June '15.
>It's not just TV, either. Radio ratings are up. And the Indians have sold a ton of tickets for next week's homestand vs DET/NYY.
>They sold about 3,000 for the July 4 game vs DET yesterday alone. They're projecting to draw 30,000+ for four of the seven games next week.
Damn, don't need Baequin getting injured
What food should I get today? I'm thinking hotdogs.
Am I the only one who's not impressed with Wisler? I don't see him being anything more than a middling starter.
>>69048338
Whoa man, no need to spend the big bucks! chow on some ramen.
I have my section literally to myself.
>>69048353
He's been absolutely middling. Which means he'll be starting most of the season.
>>69048338
Splurge a little and don't worry about calories
>>69048360
I haven't eaten since early afternoon. I'm going to concessions.
>>69048377
>shitposting from the stadium
>>69048377
I know he's been mediocre, but I think the expectation among most is that he's going to grow and be a fixture in the rotation for a long time. I just don't know if I see it. I like guys like Folty and Gant more.
>>69048414
Every game I've been to where he starts, we lose. I have a feeling we'll lose.
>>69048400
>he doesn't shitpost at games
>>69048377
Post a pic of your section.
Braves games are comfy when the team is bad.
>>69048436
that was a nice two strike pitch tho
Just got back with a hotdog, nachos, and some beer. I just saw Wisler end the inning. Pretty good.
man I wanna go to one of the Saturday home games this summer but I have to wait for other people to make up their minds. There's only 4 of those before August 30th and if they keep playing well they might get sold out!
My boy Korey Koobler sittin dem boyz down
>>69048307
He was better last year. Talking about the ASG voting this year
>>69048570
What did you put on your hotdog senpai?
>>69048596
Mustard and onions. The patrician's choice.
>>69048570
Great combo senpai
>>69048596
>toothpaste hotdog meme
>>69048588
He wasn't though. He was a better hitter, but Frankie's defense made up for it.
>>69048596
Beer
>>69048615
Wish I had some Bertman mustard to go with it.
>>69048612
>not using the mustard of mustards
>>69048616
Doesn't matter now. Again, it was last year. What's done is done.

>>69048580
Tell them to get their shit together or check out Stubhub or one of those other ticket sites.
>>69048580
Just bought first row upper-deck tickets for the game on the 4th. They are expecting some 30k+ crowds for the next homestand.
>>69048612
very nice
I'm going to one of the Tribe games in Baltimore. I gotta figure out the probables and pick a game.
Shit I got dust in my eye. Wisler's starting to warm up thankfully.
Gomes you bum
>>69048698
>>69048708
my brother is supposed to be setting it up but he's only home on the weekends
Naquin's been really solid this year.
We literally look like a Double-A team compared to the Indians.
>>69048811
I blame the ownership. A faceless corporation doesn't care about a team like an individual does.
Oh goddammit.
wow we just cannot hit with the bases juiced
>>69048825
The tear-down rebuild makes sense, but I don't get firing Fredi.
Never mind. You almost scared me for a minute.
>>69048825
>tfw Donald Trump will never own the Braves
>tfw he'll never Make Atlanta Great Again
>>69048863
I always believed it was because of the fans getting impatient.
>>69048778
Offer to do it for him if he's not able to. I haven't used it before but there's also TiqIQ and Gametime if the Indians sell out. Or do AmazingTickets since they're local.
>>69048855
Its been the only flaw they can't work out these past few years.
>>69048883
2nhwy I wouldn't mind someone like Arthur Blank owning the Barves. He seems to care a lot about the Falcons and >Soon.
>>69048855
6-for-35 now
We're .260 w/RISP though
Kluber is like a machine. I wish I could have him on the Braves.
>>69048938
>>69048918
I've never doubted Blank's commitment to winning, but some of his moves with the Falcons have been questionable at best (keeping Dimitroff this long, always hiring inexperienced head coaches, etc.).
wew 30 pitches through 3 and no hits allowed. could be another CGSO
I like to close my eyes sometimes and just listen to the crowd.
>>69048938
>>69048970
He's not perfect, but he's better than fucking Liberty Media. Or the people who owned the Thrashers. Still haven't got over that.
>>69048990
No not really.
>>69049008
Has Atlanta officially surpassed Cleveland as the most sad-ass sports city in the U.S.?
>Braves in the midst of a massive rebuilding project
>Falcons and Hawks mired in mediocrity with no improvement in sight
>hockey team left town
>no titles since 1995, only one in the city's history
>>69049069
I still think it belongs to Toronto. There's not a single good team in that city.
>>69049069
I thought it was San Diego now
>>69049069
San Diego or Buffalo
>>69049069
I'd say Sandy Eggo is sadder
at least the Barves won the Eries
>hockey team left town
twice, no less
>>69049131
Don't remind me. I was like the only fan there sadly.
>>69049069
Minneapolis is pretty bad.
>No Vikings titles
>2 titles for Twins 25-30 years ago
>Lost your hockey team
>Shitty expansion team is shitty
>T'Wolves lost 7 straight first round series
Nasty fucking inning for Klubot
>>69049152
The Twins did beat my team for one of those titles.
>39 pitches through 4
Who Kluber jersey here?
>>69049173
>>69049184
Just show you the "quality" of Braves hitting.
>tfw posted indians gamethreads earlier this year and nobody replied
>>69049194
I bought that bobblehead on ebay because I couldn't get up to Cleveland.
>>69049194
I still wear my John Smoltz Jersey from 1996.

>tfw used to make up half the replies and sometimes the only person in the thread for an hour
>>69049152
I believe the Braves have lost seven straight playoff series as well ('13 Dodgers, '10 Giants, '05 Astros, '04 Astros, '03 Cubs, '02 Giants, '01 Diamondbacks). You could make it eight if you include the one-game playoff against the Cardinals in 2012.
It's funny, everyone talks about us choking by only winning one World Series in the '90s, but I consider not winning even one playoff series since 2001 far more embarrassing.
>>69049273
>same, hold me
>>69049260
Why don't the Carolinas have a baseball team? You guys are too far away to be Braves fans.
>>69049173
His face there is tops
>>69049225
I've been here all season but you're right some of those threads were pretty dead.
>>69049260
Unlocator is what I've seen most use to get around blackouts.
>>69049273
Absolutely. Just getting 5 pennants in that '91-99 span was a huge accomplishment.
>>69049296
We should, honestly Charlotte would be a great place for it too. But the Carolina's always get fucked when it comes to professional sports.
I love this man.
>>69049318
I'm just glad they brought us a momentary sense of happiness in the miserable universe of Atlanta sports.
just a reminder
>>69049333
>there will never be Norfolk Tides in the American League
>meanwhile klubot has a sneaky no hitter goin
>>69049273
That rotation really should have won more than 1 WS

>50 pitches through 5
>>69049363
I miss the Atlanta Crackers lol.

Uhhh... back the fuck off?!?!
>>69049225
I've been here all season long. Sorry if I never replied for some reason
>>69049388
Maddux watch on now? That's a complete game shutout on less than 100 pitches.
>>69049381
We just had shit luck.
>>69049260
Strikeout dot co has links senpai
>>69049469
yeh beating a hell of an indians lineup for a world title isnt shit luck
it helped that the umps gave yer pitchers 4 inches on either side of the plate the whole series but still
>>69049456
I'd say so
>uribe's swing
JUST
Make this a good at bat Kluber!
Kluber you suck
#ChopOn lmao
>>69049513
Someone needs to hit him in the balls again so he can hit some more dingers
Wisler deserves better than the Braves.

I hate whoever the Braves sound guy is. He played that damn chop song every other pitch yesterday, and he only ramped it up when the tribe got to 8.
>>69049999
Quads confirm that we get to redo the play
>>69049999
Nice digits.
>>69049999
>Just got home from work lads, did Lindor really sabotage Klubots' no hitter?
