00:00Let's go to the Braves here, who you know had a pretty quiet offseason, but they did extend a

00:06bunch of their players a couple of years ago. I know they'll get back Strider and they'll get

00:10back Ronald Acuna Jr., and you know you certainly saw your fair share of them when you were the

00:14manager of the Mets. No team's ever made the postseason. I was shocked to see that after

00:18starting 0-7. Braves rebound buck in your mind? I wouldn't bet against them. If I was a betting man,

00:24I would bet for them. I just think they've got a nice common influence with their manager and

00:29you know a guy that's been, when I look at managers, I look at their path. You know the

00:34managers that have a path of experience within the minor leagues and winter ball and instructional

00:39league and different things that have actually been through the ups and downs of the season.

00:43I think Snicker does that very well and they're going to get, you know the Calvary's coming there.

00:48You know their catcher went out on rehab Murphy. They're going to be okay. Yeah, nobody wants to

00:54start out 0-7 and have to answer all those questions, but if you look at the pure percentage

00:59of what part of the season seven games is, I would not bet against them. Just like I

01:05wouldn't bet against the Dodgers sustaining a really top flight season.
