I remember a time not long ago. A time when the #Barves were the Braves. I think said time predates the hashtag phenomenon which makes it, like, sooooo old. Before Fredi got Fired and even more importantly, before Freddy Got Fingered, you could count on three things: death, taxes, and the Braves reaching the playoffs. From 1991 to 1998, three Braves pitchers won six Cy Youngs. and the 90's and early 2000's were filled with Braves bats you'd love to roster in the current DFS world. Fred McGriff, David Justice, Andruw Jones, Chipper Jones, and Ron Gant, just to name a few. The Braves looked like they'd never come down from their perch...and now enter the dystopian future of Atlanta. Nick Markakis is your leadoff hitter. Retreads like Chase d'Arnaud and Gordon Beckham solidify your infield. Your most feared hitter is Freddie Freeman who is good, don't get me wrong, but he bats like Adrian Gonzalez and Gonzo is eight years his senior. It's a team that lacks identity, cohesion, meat in the middle of the lineup, pitching...yeah, we're looking at the bleakest roster in MLB right now. Man, that's depressing, I need something to cheer me up. I know, I'll start a pitcher against their sorry a$$es! Those double dollar signs are me telling you you're gonna rake in the dough starting Francisco Liriano tonight against these #Barves. They are bad and they only get worse when facing a lefty so gear up for a potential banner night for Francisco. But now that we've covered that, we need to move along so let's do this. Here's my nobel prize winning taeks for this Wednesday DK slate...
