These injuries are killing our season. We've dropped down in standings. We need to come back strong AF after this break. You're too light at times with this team.

[@sumandsubstance7881]

The road games after the All Star break should determine whether we sell or buy

[@jdsthird]

We could easily be sellers at the deadline. We’ve been a .500 team for three seasons now. It sucks.

[@CesarMartinez-nr4xo]

How many of the 9 games after the break would we have to lose for that to happen?

[@jdsthird]

@@CesarMartinez-nr4xo If we lost them all AJ will still buy. And so it goes. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[@CesarMartinez-nr4xo]

@@jdsthird So how could we be sellers at the deadline?

[@CesarMartinez-nr4xo]

@@jdsthird I bet you we won’t lose them all.

[@jdsthird]

@@CesarMartinez-nr4xo Easily.

Xander Bogaerts this year other than his 4 HR's only has 6 extra base hits, all doubles. I have faith he can turn things around, you know dude wants to badly!

[@brando7266]

U do know he was hurt, missed 2 months,?

[@erikhancock98569]

@@brando7266 Yes, but his hitting was very sub par up to the time of his injury.

[@JK-tw3ne]

Imagine using injuries as an excuse. Braves lost both the Cy young and MVP favorites in Strider and Acuna for the entire year. They lost Ozzie Albies for almost 2 months. They lost Sean Murphy for 3 months. Not to mention multiple more pitching inquiries.

[@mikem9791]

He said I'm fine with 1 game over .500. Matt Kemp was right😏😆

[@oppenheim2]

Looks like a good pick. They need a lefty starter and he was ranked about where they picked in the first round…. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bWa2k32Eft6DmaMsi=f2qmWNeOkUPjlbXw

[@reno-san87]

1 game above .500 at the break is CHEEKS 😆🗑 and that intro is almost as bad as the "That's What's In" song 🤣

[@rexjaime8052]

Salas hasn't proved anything. He's batting under .200. And he's also an injury risk

[@rexjaime8052]

Anderson Espinoza was the next Pedro Martinez, remember? He sucked right away in the Pads farm system. And Salas is also not performing
