NLDS Game 4 Lineup 10/7/26: Mahle pitching, Murphy catching, and Ronnie back in RF. Everything is setting up for Ray Kerr to deliver the final blow in LA. It is his destiny!

wow brand new lineup

I like it. Fire Kim into the sun.

[u/Lakelyfe09]

Haven’t seen Drake hit that low in awhile. Love seeing Michael lead off

[u/SeanTayla21 → u/Lakelyfe09]

A bit worried about Acunas defensive ability in the OF but still glad to see him out there...especially so that we can have both Drake and Sean in the lineup.

Oh and thank goodness for Dubie at short!

(Watch Yaz come thru tonight*)

[u/No-Rooster1720 → u/SeanTayla21]

I'll take the roll of the dice with Acuna's defensive abilities vs. letting Kim anywhere near the field.

[u/twistedfloyd → u/No-Rooster1720]

Kim needs to be on the bench for emergency situations only. Like Dubon needs to be physically incapacitated in order for Kim to see the field.

[u/No-Rooster1720 → u/twistedfloyd]

Just for safety let's have Kim sitting in a dugout at LakePoint up in Emerson. Don't want to risk him ending up anywhere near the diamond tonight.

[u/Benzdrivingguy → u/SeanTayla21]

I really thought Yaz would come thru last night and the other at-bats he’s had. He has hit some clutch homers for us this year and he’s certainly capable. Need his to answer like Kike did for LA.

[u/DrScrotus → u/Benzdrivingguy]

I thought forsure they’d go with Dom Smith in that situation last night. He’s a much bigger threat for two than Yaz is.

[u/Hugo_5t1gl1tz → u/DrScrotus]

Dom isn’t on the DS roster

[u/SeanTayla21 → u/Benzdrivingguy]

He only got 1 Ab last night. Thats hard. Hernandez started.

Now yaz starts tonight. Hopefully he can do good

[u/Domino80 → u/SeanTayla21]

I have a feeling we may need Acuna’s cannon to gun down a few sac flies tonight.

[u/JiriHudlerWasGreat → u/SeanTayla21]

Yaz will have a big moment today- his walk up song is hypeee

[u/Murky-Jackfruit-1627]

Everybody look at the lineup and say Hell Yeah

[u/QueezyF → u/Murky-Jackfruit-1627]

Hell yeah

[u/tecyear → u/Murky-Jackfruit-1627]

Hell yeah, I like this

[u/PiousPapist98 → u/Murky-Jackfruit-1627]

Hell yeah

[u/Ordinary_Pudding → u/Murky-Jackfruit-1627]

Hell Yeah!

[u/Miserable_Article664]

27 out to save the world boys. Let’s ride

[u/TheJudge47]

LET'S KEEP CONTINUE

[u/slickerdrips21]

There’s only one Michael Harris

[u/pinkmoon385 → u/slickerdrips21]

Onnnne Michael Harris!

[u/jdh7190]

F the haters LFG

[u/JKess207]

We’re living or dying by our best 9. Don’t think there’s any other way to do it

Let’s go Braves

[u/jbbates84]

Honestly, I am loving this lineup. Get Baldwin out of the leadoff spot and reward Money Mike. He has been one of the only hitters showing up so far this postseason (Albies not included)

[u/glum_cunt]

If this is the last one, it has been a pleasure complaining with all of you the last 6 months

I love it, MHII leading off. Get em

[u/Benzdrivingguy]

Hope MH2 in the lead off spot doesn’t throw off his groove. Knowing him, it won’t.

[u/BatmanTheJedi → u/Benzdrivingguy]

I think he’s so locked in at this point it won’t have an effect. Hopefully him getting on base via hits (unlikely via walks, lol) will spark something in Ronnie and Matt

[u/drowsymule1 → u/BatmanTheJedi]

Probably an Acuna special double play groundout 

[u/BatmanTheJedi → u/drowsymule1]

My friend, we must believe in the Acuña that believes in us (or something)

[u/PiousPapist98 → u/BatmanTheJedi]

This comment right here. This guy Acuñas.

[u/Accurate-Kitchen-797 → u/drowsymule1]

And an Acuna batter challenge!

[u/International-Set-91]

Please God let's just get some hits from our stars

[u/PiousPapist98]

I swear Ronny better be healthy enough to play RF effectively or I will be sad :(

Murph catching Mahle is best case and glad Walt set it up this way.

And THANK THE LORD DRAKE IS DOWN AT 5th.

Let's get this W. A shakeup this big makes me very optimistic Walt knows what he's doing.

[u/pinkmoon385]

I always have a little sigh of relief when Dubi is listed at SS

[u/ul49 → u/pinkmoon385]

I couldn’t believe all the people on the sub yesterday saying playing Kim was a good idea because he “has great numbers against Yamamoto”, as if that means anything at all. And then he got pinch hit for, against Yamamoto, which shows that wasn’t even the reason he was in.

[u/thatonekrys]

Hell yeah Mikey

[u/hotdogsandwristers]

Go Bravos!

[u/tallglassofanxiety95]

Honestly solid lineup adjustments no complaints from me

[u/Frametherabbit]

Lineup looks good to me!!

[u/BringItOnHome_ATL]

Much better lineup and happy Sean is catching.

We have not been out of either game we lost. Literally a couple of well-timed 1B or 2B and we would have swept. This is a winnable game. This is still a winnable series. 

The Dodgers have looked beatable because of their offense, while most of the Braves hitters have been their own worst enemy. Ronald, Olson, and Drake are the key here and always have been. They shine bright, we win tonight.

Do or die time. Prefer the first 🪓

[u/QueezyF]

I really, really, really like this image.

[u/Hopeful_Sprinkles814]

I like this lineup, I feel like the appropriate adjustments were made. Glad Ronald can play RF so Murphy can catch 

[u/armadillokiddo]

Now this is a lineup

[u/thefuzz09]

IT TOOK WAY TOO LONG TO LET MIKE LEADOFF TONIGHT WE RIDE LETS FLY AND KEEP CONTINUE

[u/HollowPointBullet]

I wonder if Rowdy will be put in today

[u/Atlanta-Anomaly]

Genuinely love this lineup. No excuses 

[u/Btrips]

Shaking things up, I like it!

[u/parlcerkins]

About as good a lineup as we have. Let’s go Braves!

[u/Impossible_Town1599]

Acuña is going off tonight. I can feel it.

[u/F0__]

IMO this is the ideal lineup order. So hopeful!!

[u/LeaperLeperLemur]

Like the look of this lineup.
I think this lineup, and defenses, would’ve won last night.

[u/DeezNewts1]

Good job, good effort Kyle

[u/DeezNewts1]

Lol good lord

[u/who______me]

Acuna should be in the 9 hole tbh

[u/cerealfordinneragain]

Sigh
