Firing him means they pay him 6 million

He probably agreed to resign for like 3 million and staying employed

This is all my inference

Looking at the picks starting to come in and the Atlanta-Miami predictions converge around Braves in 4 which I get, that pick means you think Atlanta is the better team but not overwhelmingly so, got that specifically seems like one of the least likely ways it could go. I'd say most of the outcomes here are either Braves in 3 or Marlins in 5.

Every single year the Ivy League takes a break from fucking up the world through its various alumni to fuck up everyone's bracket instead.
First game probably more important for the Braves than for any other team left, if they lose the Fried start they have to find three among: rookie, much-improved high draft pick who could turn back into a pumpkin anytime, bullpen game, and Fried on short rest.

this is also why they have no chance in a 7-game series without at least a 2-0 lead, probably 3-0

Started the 29 run game, but did look fine in another appearance against Atlanta IIRC. I think because of rest it looks like Sixto might be getting the game 3 start?

And without an off day idk how much you even want to try Fried in Game 5, that's maybe a piggyback game if he can appear at all.

The Marlins' first three starters are some combo of Lopez, Sixto, and Sandy.

Lopez has been pretty good overall. Just not very flashy like Sixto.

I want someone to make a movie inspired by the Marlins COVID outbreak where the team has to recruit former players to fill out the roster after the entire active and reserve roster are ruled ineligible to continue the season for the safety of the league.

So they'd need players who are:
1. No longer playing in MLB
2. Alive :saddowns:

I put together this initial of players:

Curtis Granderson
Martin Prado
Ichiro

Was expecting them to reanimate Eric Gregg's corpse and stick it behind home plate for Braves-Marlins all over again, so anything's an improvement. Crew seems decent enough.
