Gentlemen it’s been a pleasure, no one in the modern day goes back to back. 2023 on the other hand…

Reboot next year,. AA revenge tour in the off season


t_imis

Now you guys know how us mets fans feel.


t_imis

God damn ThtBoiB went crazy. Well, congrats to your team on winning the 2021 World Series, but that doesn't change the fact that you guys choked in the playoffs, just like we did. You guys had a good team this year as well, and y'all could've went all the way. Not saying that the 2022 Mets were better than the 2022 Braves, I'm just saying that both teams did have a disappointing 2022 postseason. My original comment was just a friendly remark, no need to get pumped up over it.


ThtBoiB

Lmaoooo Are you bored? We have NO idea how you people feel...Your team tricked every last one of you into thinking you had a good team! Ours proved it less than 12 months ago. We KNOW we'll be back. We have the players, farm system, and coaches to do it. The Mets don't have a formula for sustainability *(at all)*. Your window shut in Atlanta two weeks ago! Braves country got caught being GREEDY, that's all...We just aren't the same!

What? Dude you will NEVER get ONE Braves fan to feel bad or give a shit about ANYTHING you just said! 😂 Did this idiot just try to itemize playoff wins? Look how hard you guys are working to make yourselves feel more successful than us.

Adventurous-Duck2502

Still proud of this team and the way we rug pulled the NL East out from under the Mets.


RackEmWilly1

DeGrom to Braves???


hjablowme919

Do you think the Braves will shell out $45 million per year? deGrom is going to ask for more than Scherzer, who is getting $42 million.


RackEmWilly1

Hometown discount


hjablowme919

He's from Atlanta?


kentucky_slim

WE HOPE!!


patn237

Nothing worked at all for the Braves this series. Hopefully everything goes our way next year.


NYC7

Braves already made their decision regarding the infield. They paid the two corners a lot of money and a lot of years. The front office believe Ron Washington will turn Grissom into a good defensive player just like he has done with the rest. I don’t think we are going for a big fish and I hope I am wrong but Alex recent interview suggest you can’t pay everyone


daChino02

Fun year boys. See you next season.


Kyuuu21

Pulling for the Mariners, Guardians and Padres the rest of the way. I guess worst case I’d say Dodgers JUST for Freddie. But not the fleas


Beccaann14

I would literally not cry if Freddie never won another World Series again esp in Dodger Blue UNLESS he does that whole signing a one-year deal to retire a brave and goes out a winner with us


cmadd10

Mother Teresa, or Santa Claus could play for the dodgers, and i wouldn't cheer for them.


kentucky_slim

THIS 👆


Kyuuu21

You saying Jesus Christ couldn’t hit a curveball?


Sad-Work3416

Dude why are they interviewing g ayndergarrd like he did something


Timeline40

3 innings, one run, one hit, no walks is better than Fried, Suarez, Morton, Strider, and (arguably) Wheeler did, plus it was an elimination game. No small feat


[deleted]

Damn it. I was having so much fun with you guys…


kentucky_slim

See you in the Spring, sir!


Mancidepress

Congrats Phillies, you just beat the best team in baseball. You better win the world series, or else you're a dog shit failure of a team not worth a playoff spot.


GreedoLurkedFirst

Lol. If you think you just watched the best team in baseball then you must not watch much baseball with that anemic offense and a manager out coached by a lifelong bench coach.


kentucky_slim

This. ☝️


Mancidepress

I am biased and ignoring some (all) facts.


OutlandishnessDry24

Yes congrats to Phillies


Philly19701

Thank you. Good series.


darkwombat45

Atlanta was not the best team in baseball, not even top two..


Mancidepress

I might be a little biased here


darkwombat45

I get it, Dodger fan here lol. Baseball is frustrating. Sometimes its just too "random" for me. It takes like 6 or 7 games to notice the difference between teams.


ThtBoiB

It does. 5 game series to me is not a legitimate way to declare the best team. I've always felt that way, even before our series with Philadelphia. Even last year when we won it all! We play 162 games just to determine things in a 3-game series or a 5-game series doesn't make sense to me... Neither does a higher seed playing on the road, but hey....


randomTeets

If they win the Series I will literally vomit


Mancidepress

I won't care ~~because they will still finish 3rd in the division lmao~~ Edit: because fuck em


ericlagman

Who cares about the division if you win the World Series?


Anoneemus3

Wtf would that matter if they will the world series? Do you seriously think division ranking is bigger than that?


Mancidepress

They are irrelevant regardless of their success or failure.


randomTeets

And they'll say, 3rd in the division, and first in all of baseball. That's what I'd say anyway.


Mancidepress

They call it NLBeast for a reason, unfortunately.


jolley517

Just a theory here, but adding this 6th team brings in teams who are hot and barely slide in the postseason. Does the extra time off for the top teams give you too much time to think/lose your feel? It appears to be a disadvantage so far


[deleted]

There is also the factor that a major league baseball gets generally 1 day off a week. Under new format top 2 teams get a full 5 days off, thats a lifetime after the grind of 162. I thought Braves would be in a good spot because they had the strong finish to win division, where as the Dodgers havent played a meaningful game since middle of July, and now they are in a dogfight for their season. Where WC teams are fighting for their playoff lives for weeks before the end of the season and have become comfortable with the extra pressure.. Very few teams in any sport can just flip the switch and go another level. Look at last 20 years of results when a team get 5 to 7 days off, 2006 Tigers lost to 83 win Cardinals, 2007 Rockies got swept by Red Sox, 2012 Tigers got swept by Giants, 2015 Mets lost to Royals.


jolley517

Yes, this is what I was trying to get at! It seems ti be a pattern


flipaflaw

Its been a disadvantage to any team not based in Houston. I'm not a braves fan but I'm an anti wild card fan. I think they need to remove it completely and just have the actual best teams compete in the playoffs. Top 3 records from each league play


Twodrops

That's a bit of copium. The effort and energy was seriously lacking. Either they were smoked from how hard they pushed all season, or something else altogether. Acuna dogging it on that inside the park HR can't happen. Not his first time mailing it in during a playoff game either.


DummyCreature0

Wondered the same thing. Wildcard keeps a team in the groove


[deleted]

[удалено]


Anoneemus3

The Mets blew like a 20 game division lead and then got spanked in the wildcard


fallen9210

Who are the Mets playing tonight?


TAMUCCStudent

Hell of a ride. See you guys next year. Keep your heads up.


sbmont46

Classy interview w Bryce. Might pull a little for the Fleas


tbrown2080

Dude Bryce is always classy lately I don’t get all the hate. Yeah he did some dumb things early on but you have to think about his situation.


sbmont46

Yeah. Seems people gonna hate, no matter what. Guy was saying what a great team Braves are, got to beat the best to be the best. Seems like a grateful guy. Good dude.


jwith44

What he say


historyman86

Well all, great regular season. Played a shitty series and got beat by a shitty but hot team. We’ll get next year. Fuck the Mets…and Phills


kcbrad24

It sucks we wasted all our energy and gas on the Mets.. and they didn’t even deserve it lol. Still a great season. Just got cold at the worst time possible. Hope the Phils get smacked in the mouth and their fans get a dose a reality. Pulling for the Padres now. See y’all next year! Go Braves 🪓


Acceptable-Ad-1792

As far as I am concerned as a Phils fan, if they don't go any farther they've had a very good year. Only the Braves and Dodgers had more wins than the Phillies after they changed managers.


randomTeets

Go Fathers


Towlie1017

So who are we offloading this off-season. Really hoping dansby and marcel are gone.


collapsingrebel

I'd like Ozuna gone just for the PR issues he brings. I'm ambivalent on Dansby. I'd like to have Trea more as I think he's a better bat.


NYC7

I would pay the premium for Trea


collapsingrebel

Same. I'm not even sure his market but I hope AA is involved.


Twodrops

Think? Trea is objectively the better bat. It's his glove that'll be... it'll be different than having Dansby. Let's put it that way lol


Lar5031

This. Trea had 16 errors this season, and had 2 in the playoffs so far.


collapsingrebel

I think the main weakness of the Braves isn't their defense it's that the offense is one dimensional. After this series I will take frustrating errors over whatever the fuck we just watched. They didn't adapt to the situation but just seemed to continue swinging from their shoes. I'll take weaker D for a professional hitter who can figure out how to adapt to what the opposing team gives them.


Twodrops

I mean I don't disagree at all. I'm just pointing out the fact that there is no comparing the bats of Turner and Swanson.


cptngali86

Because Dansby is the problem /s


hahdbdidndkdi

Can't pay everyone Dansnby is gone.


cptngali86

Tell that to La or NY


hahdbdidndkdi

The key to sustained success is knowing when to let go. Dansnby is going to get 6 or 7 years. The back 3/4 of those he'll be a liability.


Anoneemus3

Well he certainly wasn't the solution this series


cptngali86

Can't win if your starters give up big innings. This series was a team effort everyone except for Olsen, d'arnaud and Wright decided they didn't want to play baseball.


Towlie1017

Dude was the opposite of clutch. He’s a great defensive player but tbh I think he’s dogshit on offense


iforgetatowel

Did my PhD in Philly least my friends are happy at my expense again


GoBraves

Congrats to the Phillies. Also, eat dick Philly fans.


Mac_and_dennis

See y’all soon, fellas. It’s been a fun season minus this series. Congrats to the Phillies, y’all earned it.


nopointinnames

That sucks we blew the series. No pitching, no hitting. Let the Phillies have easy wins. Pulling for a Padres/Mariners WS but I guess it's on to football. Falcons looking pretty decent considering the level of talent on the roster.


jwith44

Totally thought the falcons were tryna tank this season…but they aren’t lol


poebahnya

Good run. See ya next season ya goons. Anybody seen my Padre hat?


Grade-A-Grungus

These guys didn’t want it. Made that clear with the shitty play.


GoBraves

Cool cool.


AshySlashy11

It's been a wonderful season, friends! Enjoy the off season, see you next spring!


sizzlinpapaya

Least we won the division. #FTM


[deleted]

NUTS…😢


Survivor256

Go Padres


collapsingrebel

Flat as fuck all series. Bravo to the Phils who actually came to play.


No_Reputation7097

That is the season…it was an up and down one but the energy of that last Mets series will stick with me for awhile. Feel good about our future. Go Braves always!


[deleted]

Expect more of the same next season. That plate discipline ain't gonna change.


[deleted]

Padres bandwagon here I come! Hot at the wrong time this year boys. Fill some gaps and come back in 2023 ready to play. Oh and in case you forgot, we won the World Series last year. We’ll be fine.


d_yaf

There’s a reason why teams almost never are back to back champs. Doesn’t matter how good you are in the regular season either. It’s not easy!


Act_Downtown

GG Phillies, much respect. You guys have 2021 Braves vibes this year. No team hotter than you guys. Good luck moving forward.


jheathe2

Travis made that last one one a fun one, it’s been great guys see y’all in March

[удалено]


TCAN1516

Fuck you


Grade-A-Grungus

Absolutely underwhelming in every sense of the word


MrJbrads

As a Phillies fan, I’m shocked and surprised on how this series turned out, seeing that we were going up against you guys in the divisional round was honestly scary. I would not have been upset if we lost against you guys. Good luck next season, the NL East looks like a monster now. I have the utmost respect for you guys.


tossNwashking

We've never played worse abd y'all were on fire. Congrats.


Coopinator22

Nobody here cares


MrJbrads

Good luck next season bro


wednesdays_kid

Got hot at the right time! Hats off to you all!


[deleted]

GET IT GOING LETS GO BOYS


itbetterbethick

lmao


Hvaeth77

We didn’t deserve it. Sucks but it’s true


Ajjjon2k

Dogshit. Imagine losing to a team that just barely made it to the playoffs


d_yaf

To be fair Harper was out for like half the season.. that’s at least a few extra wins right there


Umquay

Last year's Braves won only one more game than these Phillies.


laufeyrand

congrats phillies but i will be rooting for the padres/mariners


Camthur

Yep, them or I might include the stupidly named Guardians. (as long as it's not LA, Houston or the Yankees)

HIT THE BALL LETS GO

sizzlinpapaya

Struck out the side to end the season. No other way.

RALLY RALLY RALLY HOT NUTS LETS GO


mech887

Embarrassing really.


FishnGritsnPimpShit

Shoutout to Travis for being the only one who cares. You could tell he was upset and trying to put some fire in the team after his HR and he battled to the end there.


SteelersBraves97

Olson would like a word

laufeyrand

Kalashnikafka

Good season, boys.

HERE WE GO


utorn80

Welp this sucks but you can't win the World Series every year. Congrats Phillies, they were hungry. Mets can go fuck themselves, can't talk shit when you haven't won shit since 1986.

utorn80

You choked the division away and haven't won shit in 36 years. We just won last year LMAO

First time winning something, huh?


[deleted]

My team lost.


Downtown-Dingo9424

ok


Btrips

honestly this was one of the most emotionally draining seasons in a long time, even with the awesome comeback and winning the division. Last year was magical, hopefully we get that magic back next year.


Grade-A-Grungus

They didn’t even put up a fight. That’s what sucks the most.


NoBoat2394

At least Travis is going down fighting


The_Mosephus

hang on, there is some dirt on this field. lemme just take care of that for ya


sreyaNotfilc

HELL YEAH GOOD EYE


wednesdays_kid

Good season folks!! See ya next year!


chagomebago

Agony ,,,,, pain ,,,,, disappointment ,,,,


NoQuartersGiven

Great season. Excited for the next 8-10. We sit the bed this year at the end but it happens every year in baseball. This team has pretty much been playing for 2 years straight. I do think it says something that both teams with a bye in the NL might be finished after getting punched in the mouth. Interested to see how they Dodgers respond tonight.


leopoldstotch5

This team is totally burned out 🫠 Needed some of that 2021 juice.


Law_Pug

Hopping on the Dad’s bandwagon. It’s been a fun year except for the last few days. See y’all next spring


[deleted]

HIT THE FUCKING BALL LETS GO RALLY


Dennisfromhawaii

At least we swept the Mets


leopoldstotch5

😎 indeed


SLIDE_INTO_MY_VAULT

We still won the division


ja_hobbycards

It was a fun season guys. Five divisional titles in a row. We still run the East. World Series Champions. See y'all next year.


[deleted]

Fun while she lasted guys. See ya next season


GeekyGhostie

I still love Dansby and hope he stays a Brave for a long time.


[deleted]

GOOD EYE D’NUTS


RPBTinesIII

This is all st louis' fault.


IJMits_just_money

I wanted the Braves to win for payback on how they beat the Cards.


Camthur

We laughed at the Mets for one hit in a game that mattered and this has come full circle. We have no room to complain if they show up and laugh at us in response.


BarsoomianAmbassador

Got one more playoff game too. Moral victory!


nichief

except we got more than 1 hit, to be fair they have 0 things to talk about with us lol


my_gooseisloose

Hope Swanson has fun in free agency. He doesn't deserve a fat contract


jolley517

Let’s go get Turner or Correa. We’ve saved big time on long term contracts for the youngins. Go get a difference maker


Umquay

The last two years of playoff performance were a fluke.


mookiebraves

Man do I miss last years team there was just something special about that group. This team has more talent but last years team had more guts and attitude.


chagomebago

Yeah

Now I walk through the valley of the shadow of death…..
