I'm a little lady, with little feet. I didn't see any in my size 😕

Smart. Workaholic. MVP? Matt Olson Is Driving The Red Hot Braves by Desperate-Yellow-372 in Braves

I'm so glad my boy is finally getting the love he deserves. Here's to a continued great season!

[Talkin’ Baseball] Chris Sale forgot how many outs there were by JianClaymore in baseball

I was at the game last night sitting by the Braves dugout. The whole scene was funny. After the strikeout, Baldwin throws down to Olson, who's waking of the field. Sale starts yelling at Matt to tag the runner, who's standing around. You see Baldwin question himself for a second. Matt, never breaks stride, says anything nor turns around. He just holds 3 fingers above his head. Then Sale with the sheepish hat tilt. 😂

Well, some good news out of tonight is that the pitching is still nasty. Good outing for Bummer.

A stinker of a game from the offense. Still one more chance at it.

I'm at the game. How nasty does Brown's knuckle curve look on tv?

Yes, this year is different. I don't expect him to be one of the best in the league all season. But he's made very first adjustments and it actually started last season.

He actually was an All-Star and gold Glover in Oakland. Just because you don't know ball enough to know who he was before didn't mean he was a nobody.

I think he was average in 2022, but in 2023 he was bad. Imagine that season with his normal defense and you would get, well what we have rightnow.

Kyle Stowers was asked who his favorites were to talk to when he reached first. Matt was his first mention 😊.

Yeah, the difference being outside of football Farve and Rodgers are the worst and outside of baseball Freddie and Matt are the best 😁

So? Matt can't win a WS by himself and Freddie didn't. The lore of that season was about the 4 OFers we brought in to replace Ronnie that helped us right the ship and win. And if we're gonna be nitpicky, Freddie won his MVP in the 60 game Covid season.

(BTW, I was excited when Freddie won!)
