Episode Details

After an extra-inning win vs. the Reds, Lindsay Crosby breaks down Atlanta’s alarming September split: a 41 WRC+ in the first five innings (worst in MLB by far) versus a 161 WRC+ in innings 7–9 (best in MLB). He explains why that late surge may not translate to October, evaluates potential Wild Card opponents’ offensive profiles, and argues the Braves’ biggest elimination risk is failing to score early. Crosby then proposes a Wild Card roster build with 14 position players and 12 pitchers, clarifies postseason eligibility rules for a third catcher, and outlines key bench roles and pitching decisions, including the final bullpen spot debate between Brent Suter and Ray Kerr.
