Braves okay I get their games on spectrum all season,now the Mets are really underachievers this year fire Showwalter

Not so sure the Mets are underachieving as much as they overachieved last season.
The Braves have “it” this season and IMO will bring another championship to Atlanta.

I liked Steve Sax, when I was young.

Don't forget Steve Yeager their all-star catcher. He came up w/the idea of that piece that hangs down off the mask that helps protect the throat area from foul balls hit back.
