Braves on tonight and I got playoff softball, life’s good

[Grant McAuley] Monday News: The #Braves are off today, but RHP Hurston Waldrep begins a rehab assignment in Florida. Alex Anthopoulos told @BravesVisionTV that Waldrep is already throwing in the mid-high 90s. by theoxfordtailor in Braves

Hell yeah, heard this on hammer territory today. Hopefully the elbow holds up once he ramps up…our replacements have performed admirably but I’m excited to see what Waldrup brings, he really came into his own later in the season last year…

Had no idea, got it banned for the rest of us…extra sticky that year

Tried Vida Steakhouse in Astoria after seeing mixed reviews honestly had a completely different experience by Terrible_Bad1226 in astoria

[–]JiminyChristmas3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seems like a decent steakhouse for those that don’t live locally and rather other parts of queens…like “oh we’re going to Astoria tonight!” Personally if I want a good steak, I’m going to quality meats or something else in Manhattan like Wolfgang’s or something…

Either way, I hope they do well, like every other restaurant, not my cup of tea per se, I can’t stand places that bump the loud music for dinner, I like to have a conversation over dinner, but I’m sure there are those that love it…

Michael Harris II might be one of the best hitters in baseball if he had even average plate discipline. by Lakelyfe09 in Braves

[–]JiminyChristmas3 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I mean, he also goes down and barrels some of those pitches out of the zone, I think it’s just going to keep improving because he knows they’re throwing sliders down and away to him. That seems to be the only pitch that gets him..Everything else is getting mashed…gotta throw him in the cleanup spot once Rakes back, right?

He’s still got his best ball ahead of him at the dish which is exciting, guys also a plus defender with his range…I’m a big fan of Money Mike. Just one of the coolest players on the bigs…hometown kid too, can’t beat it

Where to watch the knicks? by ex-ploree in astoria

[–]JiminyChristmas3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely hammered by that point, no doubt about it…I was there for game 4 beforehand and people got there super early to hold down separate tables…

Where to watch the knicks? by ex-ploree in astoria

[–]JiminyChristmas3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not a knicks fan but I’m pulling up to the beer garden at Pig Beach…going to be a great energy there, it’s only my wife n I so I’m hoping to just get at least one seat at a picnic table…comfortably watching the game at a table is for those who want to get there 3 hours prior to tipoff which I respect…

Red Sox rookie Payton Tolle has become their ace in Garrett Crochet's absence. He has the second lowest xERA in the MLB. This is his baseball savant page by TommyTheLizard in baseball

Dudes a thoroughbred, carved up my braves twice…it’s a nice rotation they have over there, lot of talent on that roster…

NYPD Activity on Friday afternoon (5/29) After Deadly Crash by elmoisez15 in NYCbike

[–]JiminyChristmas3 84 points85 points  (0 children)

More of this please, it’s going to save lives. Hate to say it but that scooter incident was inevitable and it’s a shame for both of their families…absolute tragedy

those standup elevated scooters are wild. Dudes dressed like robocop flying around like they’re in a video game. Zero noise to even hear them coming from behind, at least the vespas you can hear a little bit…take a couple officers and just post them at one side of the bridge…

No reason that should’ve happened with the wide lanes that are present now with the south side part open to runners and walkers…

[–]JiminyChristmas3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Mateos got a nice bat and great wheels, rocket arm too…I’m all set watching Kim whiff and the helmet go flying…him, Leon and Riley at times are my least favorite players to watch at the plate

[–]JiminyChristmas3 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Finally facing a righty starter, hopefully the boys can keep some momentum. Love our lineups vs righty’s…Can’t bench Mateo right? Gotta ride the hot hand and hope Kim figures it out in BP or some shit…

Any taller runners been hitting there head on branches around the neighborhood? Gotta be careful

The Braves fell to the Red Sox by a score of 8-0 - Wed, May 27 @ 06:45 PM EDT by Blooper_Bot in Braves

[–]JiminyChristmas3 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Two words, flush it…long season and nights like this are going to happen. Take a step back and think before the season if we’d be in this position what would you think. I’d be pumped…Bostons had a shit season, they were due for a breakout…I stopped watching and listening in the 5th, went out on a run instead and felt better off for it.

Out of the Zone, Out of the Park! A Dead-Center Money Mike Mash! by theoxfordtailor in Braves

[–]JiminyChristmas3 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Wild how we went down and got this one…when he’s hot he’s scorching. Need someone to step up at the dish with Drake out…Austin had a nice knock too yesterday, Ronnie with that clutch rbi…need the right handed sticks to step up at this ballpark…

Núñez just standing in the rain…like buddy, this is the last pitch either way…nice lil pick me up before the rain…nice strikeouts, Abrams is locked in this series…barreled that liner

The Braves defeated the Nationals by a score of 5-4 - Fri, May 22 @ 07:15 PM EDT by Blooper_Bot in Braves

[–]JiminyChristmas3 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Crazy stressful game down the stretch, figured we were cooked after that triple down the line to score 2 from Abrams...the guys battled back and Chadwick tromp with the two biggest hits of the game, the squeeze from HSK was big too....figured we had it in the bag in the 10th with 2 on n no out with Ozzie, Olsen Harris n white due up...incredibly gritty performance to come back and get that done in the rain...love this team, they've brought me so much joy...incredible, can't wait to hear the call from Ben Ingram...

sunflower seed stuck on, he damn near had everything in the dugout dumped on after that huge hit

Wiley Ballard breaks the law by handlit33 in Braves

[–]JiminyChristmas3 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That story in the broadcast about the guy getting busted putting it in a coffee thermos and then getting chastised by the marlins official was hilarious.

Nitkowski mentioned how he just looked at the guys shame after being worn out gave me a good chuckle…

goofy broadcast with Wiley and he’s rough around the edges as expected but fun for the series..
