  1. Jrsse Chavez is just meant to wear the Braves uniform until he hangs up his cleats.

  2. Why doesn’t Snit just manage every single game like it’s game 7 of the World Series?

  3. If Snit wanted to steal an inning with Shuster, send Chavez out there for the 7th against the bottom of the order — steal an inning that way.

    I know McHugh is out today and they would probably prefer to rest Iglesias.

    Anderson – 8th

    Minter – 9th?

  4. I hope Jesse makes the all star game, sucks we can’t vote for pitchers.

  5. lol, the lack of belief in Uncle Jesse from some of you is embarrassing. Can’t be underestimating Tio at this point.

  6. I turned my Adblock off for MLB.tv and I much prefer the commercials to seeing the same Hall of Fame Connections commercial for the 1000th time or the three highlights from 2023 they have.

  7. Remember when some people were arguing that Jesse Chavez wasn’t a high leverage reliever? what a bunch of morons

    (definitely don’t check my post history)

  8. Is Pitchcom more trouble than it’s worth?

    As I ask the question Brandon says no.

  9. Man I know a lot of people don’t like em and they’re not incredibly original, but I love these uniforms. Doubly so after seeing how bad almost every other city connect has been. These are one of only 3 or 4 that look really good imo.

  10. Jesse Chavez is perhaps my favorite reliever we have in the absence of Matzek. Braves legend.

  11. The gNats are scrappy. Not very good but they play hard and make you earn it. Reminds me a lot of our 2017 team.

  12. Can’t lie that was a pretty impressive catch .. Big leaguers make it look so easy but that was a lot of ground that dude made to catch that

  13. Say what you will about the city connect unis, but our batting helmets are straight 🔥🔥

  14. Can anyone explain to me why I can’t watch this game on MLBTV?? Bally sports southeast isn’t even offered in NC…
