GDT: Dodgers @ Braves..26 June 22 @ 7:08

[jsebe10]

No superstar tonight.


SS D. Swanson R
C T. d'Arnaud R
1B Matt Olson L
3B Austin Riley R
LF M. Ozuna R
2B O. Arcia R
DH W. Contreras R
RF Adam Duvall R
CF M. Harris L

P Strider.

[jsebe10]

Gonsolin is an awful matchup for Duvall and Riley.

[WaitingFor2017]

Mets just lost on a walk-off to the Miami backup catcher.

[Hulavol]

Our superstar is leading off!
Michael Harris primed for prime time three run bomb.

[zbhargrove]

Big opportunity tonight

[Slippyjms]

Ugh big hit to the defense switching out Acuña for Ozuna

[CyYoung31]

Yikes.

[thethe]

Freeman has probably had a lot of long sad nights. Only has himself to blame.

[UNCBlue012]

Ronnie doesn’t have a fracture but can’t put weight on his foot. IL stint is possible, per media guys.

[CyYoung31]

Ronnie doesn’t have a fracture but can’t put weight on his foot. IL stint is possible, per media guys.

JFC

[thethe]

Call up Waters and hope to catch lighting in a bottle for a week.

[bravesnumberone]

Do we need to send flowers to Acuna?

[striker42]

Do we need to send flowers to Acuna?

Flowers was a pretty tough catcher. Could probably show Acuna a thing or two.

[CrimsonCowboy]

Yikes.

1541093065842098181

I remember reading yesterday that there were some Dodger insiders saying some in that organization weren’t real happy about the attention Freeman has gotten in Atlanta and everything about it.

[Nerfherders]

They can suck it. How often does a face of the franchise move off of a team immediately after a WS championship? Probably never?

[Hudson2]

Yikes.

1541093065842098181

Freeman saying Atlanta is one of his favorite places on earth and stuff only pours gas on the fire and you know how the LA writers are. Could end up causing some problems in the clubhouse, especially when the face of the franchise (Kershaw) starts talking.

[msstate7]

I'm with enscheff on this... FF is having an amazing season. There will be no issues bc of that

[CyYoung31]

They can suck it. How often does a face of the franchise move off of a team immediately after a WS championship? Probably never?

Pujols.

[zbhargrove]

Call up Waters and hope to catch lighting in a bottle for a week.

Waters has done zero to warrant a call up

[zbhargrove]

I'm with enscheff on this... FF is having an amazing season. There will be no issues bc of that

Calling FF’s season “amazing” is a bit rich. It’s been a solid season. But amazing? Come on man.

[msstate7]

Calling FF’s season “amazing” is a bit rich. It’s been a solid season. But amazing? Come on man.

On pace for 6.5 fWAR, so yeah, pretty amazing. He's only been over 6 fWAR one time. Do you think FF has ever had an amazing season?

[thewupk]

Calling FF’s season “amazing” is a bit rich. It’s been a solid season. But amazing? Come on man.

He's no Swanson that's for sure

[jsebe10]

Freeman saying Atlanta is one of his favorite places on earth and stuff only pours gas on the fire and you know how the LA writers are. Could end up causing some problems in the clubhouse, especially when the face of the franchise (Kershaw) starts talking.

Honestly…Freeman shouldn’t care at this point…He’s got his contract….trade him. Man the entire MLB world knows he doesn’t want to be in LA…he wants to be in Atl…it’s his home…he grew up there. Fck LA

[jsebe10]

Yikes.

1541093065842098181

I would almost bet Kershaw’s words were taken completely out of context knowing the fckn AJC

[Mad Dog Murph]

Acuña got a paper cut and put himself on the 60 day IL. Then he stared down that piece of paper for like 10 minutes.

[msstate7]

Acuña got a paper cut and put himself on the 60 day IL. Then he stared down that piece of paper for like 10 minutes.

I think we baby him more than he wants to be babied

[zbhargrove]

On pace for 6.5 fWAR, so yeah, pretty amazing. He's only been over 6 fWAR one time. Do you think FF has ever had an amazing season?

Actually no I don’t think he’s ever had an amazing season. Just a consistent very good player. Certainly not amazing

[msstate7]

Actually no I don’t think he’s ever had an amazing season. Just a consistent very good player. Certainly not amazing

Tough crowd. I'd welcome any 6 fWAR season for a brave, and I'd certainly describe it as amazing

[jsebe10]

God I hope we don’t get AAA Strider tonight.

[zbhargrove]

Tough crowd. I'd welcome any 6 fWAR season for a brave, and I'd certainly describe it as amazing

Dude you really need to get over your Freddie crush. We all know he will hit his late season slump like every year. He will short of 6 WAR

[Garmel]

God I hope we don’t get AAA Strider tonight.

His velocity looked good.

[msstate7]

Dude you really need to get over your Freddie crush. We all know he will hit his late season slump like every year. He will short of 6 WAR

I think I'm the one being more honest in the debate. If Olson were on a 6 fWAR pace, it would be "amazing". I try not to hold my nuts on players just bc they wear a different uniform

[Heyward]

Olson swings at ball 4, sigh. Worked the count on Gonsolin though.

[jgriff3029]

Swung at ball five. Ump called ball 4 a strike.

[CrimsonCowboy]

What’s with the cartoon graphics on ESPN?

[jsebe10]

MLB bitches about pace of play but will let ESPN broadcast 5 hour games because of longer advertising.

[jsebe10]

Gonsolin will make a fool out of Duvall with that splitter.

[WaitingFor2017]

MLB bitches about pace of play but will let ESPN broadcast 5 hour games because of longer advertising.

Not only that, but Gonsolin seems to be taking his sweet time between pitches tonight. I'm not sure if that's just him, but he is taking a very long time.

[CrazyTrain]

Strider is good

[msstate7]

Damn strider, that was nice

[Garmel]

Strider is hitting spots with ease.

[jsebe10]

Oh wow…Had no idea Freddie’s bone head agent pushed a counter to AA and gave them an hour to respond…Then he hears about the Olson trade…Fckn love it

[jsebe10]

Damn strider, that was nice

Thoughts on Ole Piss? They make me sick in any sport.

[msstate7]

Thoughts on Ole Piss? They make me sick in any sport.

Sucks, but they had a hell of a run.

[CyYoung31]

Oh wow…Had no idea Freddie’s bone head agent pushed a counter to AA and gave them an hour to respond…Then he hears about the Olson trade…Fckn love it

Where you been? Lol

[CyYoung31]

Sucks, but they had a hell of a run.

Mississippi has won back to back CWS. You should be proud.

[CyYoung31]

ESPN sucks.

[Heyward]

Where you been? Lol

I wasnt sure how it all unfolded either. Always interesting to know.

[bravesnumberone]

Getting tired of these punk ass hits.

[The Chosen One]

How long of a leash will Snit have for Strider today?


105 pitches?
7 innings?

[msstate7]

How long of a leash will Snit have for Strider today?


105 pitches?
7 innings?

I would hope 3 times through with day off tomorrow

[CrazyTrain]

I wasnt sure how it all unfolded either. Always interesting to know.

Same. He talked about regret during his speech. Really sad how that played out but it's not possible to strong arm AA.

[msstate7]

Mississippi has won back to back CWS. You should be proud.

I'm not as salty as I thought I'd be.

ETA... college baseball is probably like 5th favorite sport though

[The Chosen One]

I'm not as salty as I thought I'd be.

I didn't think Mississippi had the type of money to pay for baseball instruction for minors.

Let alone the colleges have enough money to bribe good players to come to Mississippi.

[msstate7]

I didn't think Mississippi had the type of money to pay for baseball instruction for minors.

Let alone the colleges have enough money to bribe good players to come to Mississippi.

Lol, they just really enjoy the high level of education you get in Mississippi

[msstate7]

Harris has a gun

[bravesnumberone]

They are just missing.

[msstate7]

They are just missing.

Missing nevertheless

[Enscheff]

It’s time to start watching strider closely for signs of running out of gas.

[msstate7]

I feel like smith shoulda been at 3b twice now

[CrazyTrain]

Wow

[jsebe10]

I didn't think Mississippi had the type of money to pay for baseball instruction for minors.

Let alone the colleges have enough money to bribe good players to come to Mississippi.

Well you could say the same about Miss St as well…They outbid Ole Piss for LB Leo Lewis and then Mullen’s sorry ass had Lewis snitch on Hugh Freeze and Ole Piss to the NCAA.

[Heyward]

How long of a leash will Snit have for Strider today?


105 pitches?
7 innings?

I'd try to get 2 more innings out of him, but you never know with Snit.

[msstate7]

It’s time to start watching strider closely for signs of running out of gas.

As he sees teams a 2nd and 3rd time, can he continue to be a starter? What does that fastball rate? Sorry if I missed your evaluation

[Garmel]

Harris has a gun

It kept Will Smith at 2nd which saved a run.

[msstate7]

It kept Will Smith at 2nd which saved a run.

I blame will smith on that one. It looks obvious that Harris woulr get there... will shoulda tagged

[msstate7]

This is not the performance I envisioned by Olson

[USMA76]

I'm not as salty as I thought I'd be.

ETA... college baseball is probably like 5th favorite sport though

Disappointing day at the MCWS. Give credit to Ole Miss as they deserved it.

[CyYoung31]

****.

[USMA76]

****.

Couldn't have said it better myself.

[jsebe10]

****.

Ozuna had one thing in mind and you can tell by that swing. His HR he was looking RF and and hit it out today RC…

[CyYoung31]

This is not the performance I envisioned by Olson

You should stop calling hot streaks for Braves players and start calling them venereal diseases.

[CyYoung31]

Ozuna had one thing in mind and you can tell by that swing. His HR he was looking RF and and hit it out today RC…

He hit it hard though.

[jsebe10]

I’m letting him finish this inning vs Alvarez and Thompson trash asses and he’s done. Do not let him go out for the 6th

[CrazyTrain]

Damn son

[CrazyTrain]

Filthy

[CrazyTrain]

Just blowing them away

[CyYoung31]

Jesus.

[msstate7]

You should stop calling hot streaks for Braves players and start calling them venereal diseases.

Good plan

[msstate7]

Strider's fastball has to be a ++ pitch

[CyYoung31]

I’m letting him finish this inning vs Alvarez and Thompson trash asses and he’s done. Do not let him go out for the 6th

I think you’re right. Probably doesn’t need to face their great hitters a 3rd time.

But we both know he will.

[UNCBlue012]

Strider’s velo is back and he’s looking fantastic

[Heyward]

Probably shouldnt send him out in the 6th but he's cruising.

[Heyward]

I think you’re right. Probably doesn’t need to face their great hitters a 3rd time.

But we both know he will.

He hasnt really had much trouble tonight, i dont see a problem giving him one more inning.

[UNCBlue012]

Strider's fastball has to be a ++ pitch I think it’s like an 80-grade fastball.

[UNCBlue012]

I know Gonsolin is very good but this is awful lmaooo

[CyYoung31]

Acuña is really worried about his foot. Not good.

[msstate7]

They're giving gosselin credit for a .176 babip

[CyYoung31]

Apparently his foot has gotten worse.

[msstate7]

Acuña is really worried about his foot. Not good.

Is he Zion Williamson

[CyYoung31]

Acuña: “The Braves are no doubt better than the Mets.”

[msstate7]

Dansby, Wtf

[jsebe10]

So those two are balls Mr Unpire. Dude doesn’t need your fckn help.

[Garmel]

Dansby, Wtf

Two of the pitches weren't even strikes.

[jsebe10]

Acuña: “The Braves are no doubt better than the Mets.”

Where is he saying this sh*t at?

[CyYoung31]

Where is he saying this sh*t at?

KayRod Simulcast on ESPN2.

[USMA76]

Apparently his foot has gotten worse.

Prior to July of last year, I think most of us believed he was soft. When the ACL tear happened, I felt bad for RAJ and mad at myself for questioning his toughness. Now I don't know what to believe and just hope he's okay.

[Mad Dog Murph]

Where is he saying this sh*t at?

They had him on the alternate broadcast on ESPN2. He was live from his ICU bed

[jsebe10]

Two of the pitches weren't even strikes.

No kidding…That Daniel Kaluuya looking MFer behind home plate.

[msstate7]

I love dansby, but OMG, please let us get turner

[msstate7]

They had him on the alternate broadcast on ESPN2. He was live from his ICU bed

Lol

[CyYoung31]

They had him on the alternate broadcast on ESPN2. He was live from his ICU bed

LOL

[jsebe10]

Prior to July of last year, I think most of us believed he was soft. When the ACL tear happened, I felt bad for RAJ and mad at myself for questioning his toughness. Now I don't know what to believe and just hope he's okay.

He’s a diva…one that we would absolutely despise if he weren’t on the Braves. He needs to grow up.

[Heyward]

Welp

[msstate7]

Gotta go pen, right?

[CyYoung31]

Here we go.

[Heyward]

I love dansby, but OMG, please let us get turner

Turner's probably getting more than Dansby will.

[UNCBlue012]

Yikes. He was 1-2 to both Freddie and Smith. Gotta pitch smarter, Strider.

[jsebe10]

He’s got no business being out there right now.

[msstate7]

Turner's probably getting more than Dansby will. he's worth more

[msstate7]

Please let this rocket be right at swanson

[msstate7]

That'll work

[msstate7]

And we don't have mchugh ready for turner

[Heyward]

Strider is tiring out, hope this is his last batter.

[Heyward]

he's worth more

Of course, i'm just saying if we wont pay Dansby, i dont know if we would for Trea.

[jsebe10]

Big time sequence boy!

[CrazyTrain]

So nasty

[Heyward]

Ballsy pitching by Strider.

[msstate7]

Ok, I change my position - strider is a starter

[Hudson2]

Hell yeah! That slider was nasty!

[CyYoung31]

Ownage.

[UNCBlue012]

Damn, dude!

Also:

Hector Gomez: SOURCE: The #Dodgers are showing interested in potentially trading for RHP Frankie Montas and Luis Castillo.

[jsebe10]

Damn, dude!

Also:

Hector Gomez: SOURCE: The #Dodgers are showing interested in potentially trading for RHP Frankie Montas and Luis Castillo.

Fckn monopoly is what it is.

[msstate7]

TDA is so good

[CrazyTrain]

TdA is the definition of "professional hitter"

His nickname should be Iceman

[Hudson2]

Of course, i'm just saying if we wont pay Dansby, i dont know if we would for Trea.

I think AA will look at past performance and Turner has been more consistent than Dansby has been.

[The Chosen One]

Terrible call.

[msstate7]

I'm not looking forward to 7 more years of this guy

[CrazyTrain]

****

[UNCBlue012]

Oly has been called out twice on balls

[Heyward]

Good lord, what an awful ****ing call.

[CyYoung31]

This ump is trash.

[Heyward]

I'm not looking forward to 7 more years of this guy

That was a good AB, he should of walked.

[msstate7]

That was a good AB, he should of walked.

Still, at some point, he's expected to drive guys in

[USMA76]

This clown behind the plate gives both inside off of the plate and outside off of the plate. In the process, he's absolutely screwed both Swanson and Olson.

[jsebe10]

Everything is a god damn Yankees reference with this fckn broadcast crew

[Heyward]

Ozuna comes through.

[UNCBlue012]

Let’s go, Big Bear!

[msstate7]

Atta boy, ozuna

[CrazyTrain]

Yeah buddy!

[CrazyTrain]

Lol they cut off the chop

[msstate7]

Will smith in 7th or lee?

[jsebe10]

Lol they cut off the chop

It’s ESPN…are you surprised

[Heyward]

Will smith in 7th or lee?

We have an off-day Monday. Should go Smith/Minter/Jansen.

[msstate7]

Gotta have it Contreras

[msstate7]

We have an off-day Monday. Should go Smith/Minter/Jansen.

I agree

[CyYoung31]

Don’t swing.

[msstate7]

Must want duvall

[jsebe10]

Will smith in 7th or lee?

Lee.

[msstate7]

Adam, I know you suck, but please don't suck here

[jsebe10]

Smart by Yency…Walk the first two guys to get to Duvall for the easy pop out…very smart.

[Heyward]

Swung at ball 3...

[jsebe10]

God damn Rosario can’t get back fast enough.

[msstate7]

Why would you give duvall a green light until he throws a strike?

[msstate7]

I'm sure Olson woulda missed that throw

[UNCBlue012]

Dammit

[mfree80]

I am getting tired of national announcers blatantly cheering for the Braves opponent.

[CrazyTrain]

How did that fat **** do that

[UNCBlue012]

I'm sure Olson woulda missed that throw Olson must have cranked your mom or something

[msstate7]

Olson must have cranked your mom or something

He's my stepdad, and I hate him

[Heyward]

I'm sure Olson woulda missed that throw

FF is gone and isnt coming back, get over it. He's been more than fine for us.

[jsebe10]

Why would you give duvall a green light until he throws a strike?

Because he’s a nice guy and a diabetic. Duh

[CyYoung31]

Did Jackson Stephens die?

[msstate7]

FF is gone and isnt coming back, get over it. He's been more than fine for us.

I guess. On pace for 3.3 fWAR. Certainly not terrible, but disappointing

[jsebe10]

Any chance Belli gets non tendered next season? I know it’s far fetched but he’s been awful

[msstate7]

Lee may have passed will smith

[USMA76]

I guess. On pace for 3.3 fWAR. Certainly not terrible, but disappointing

I didn't hear it precisely as it was early in the broadcast but they made it sound like FF's agent gave the Braves a one-hour "take it or leave it" ultimatum as soon as the lockout ended. After the hour passed, they found out that the Braves had signed Olson.

Did I hear it incorrectly?

[CyYoung31]

God, I hate Chris Taylor.

[jsebe10]

Wouldn’t be a Dodger game without a pattern Chris Taylor fisted single.

[CyYoung31]

I love Chavez, but why are we using our “mop up” guys right now? What happened to Stephens?

[msstate7]

I don't blame AA at all. He did what he had too. If AA was to blame for anything, perhaps the extension was too hasty

[jsebe10]

I love Chavez, but why are we using our “mop up” guys right now? What happened to Stephens?

We’ve been Snitkered! Lol. You just know this going to blow up.

[msstate7]

Rosario 2-5, k

[CyYoung31]

I love Chavez, but why are we using our “mop up” guys right now? What happened to Stephens?

Stephens hasn’t pitched in a week.

[Hulavol]

Chavez.

[jsebe10]

What a dumb fckn sequence and result.

[msstate7]

Welp, Chavez vs turner

[Ozzie Swanson]

Yeah, I don't understand Chavez in this spot.

[jsebe10]

Turner is on everything

[msstate7]

Who do we have for FF

[bravesfanforlife88]

Ballgame

[msstate7]

Wow, great job

[USMA76]

Turner is on everything

Nice job, Jesse.

[Hulavol]

Chavez .

[bravesnumberone]

Good job of staying out there, Chavez.

[CyYoung31]

Never doubt Braves legend Jesse Chavez.

[Heyward]

Stephens hasn’t pitched in a week.

He pitched in one of the Giants games i think.

[Hulavol]

I swear robo umps would ruin this game.

[msstate7]

Never doubt Braves legend Jesse Chavez.

I doubt him like every time, and every time he proves me wrong

[CrimsonCowboy]

While we have a moment, two hit night in rehab for Rosario

[USMA76]

Never doubt Braves legend Jesse Chavez.

"The man, the myth, the legend..."

[Hulavol]

Mississippi keep on doubtin’….. it’s working like usual

[CyYoung31]

He pitched in one of the Giants games i think.

6/21. Basically a week ago.

[Hulavol]

Time to go ahead and get Rosario over here while he’s hot and Acuna has a hang nail

[msstate7]

Time to go ahead and get Rosario over here while he’s hot and Acuna has a hang nail

Eh, give em a few PA

[bravesnumberone]

That was the most Chris Johnson of hits.

[WaitingFor2017]

Gavin Lux ain't sh.......

[msstate7]

Can Harris steal? I'd like to see him run more if so

[bravesnumberone]

Can Harris steal? I'd like to see him run more if so

I’m trying to remember the last time we did a hit and run. Is that legal anymore?

[bravesnumberone]

Karl Ravech: “That’s been a strike all night.” It was literally called a ball three times for the Dodgers last inning.

[CyYoung31]

We have to score here.

[msstate7]

I’m trying to remember the last time we did a hit and run. Is that legal anymore?

I guess when he reaches for the most part it's Acuna at bat, so I understand not running

[bravesnumberone]

Can we please just put these twats away for once?

[msstate7]

Can Harris steal? I'd like to see him run more if so

See what kinda pull I have?

[The Chosen One]

Is that a foul ball since it bounced off the bat. Lol

[CrazyTrain]

That was awesome

[WaitingFor2017]

Will Smith is lucky he didn't break his hand there had his hand gone a couple of inches further.

[Five]

Love that from TDA.

[bravesnumberone]

Is that a foul ball since it bounced off the bat. Lol

Angel Hernandez says yes.

[msstate7]

TDA or Olson have to get a run in

[CrazyTrain]

That camera footage is amazing

[CrimsonCowboy]

Never seen that before

[bravesnumberone]

Freaking horrible right there.

[CyYoung31]

TDA deserved a hit for that.

[CyYoung31]

It’s Olson’s time.

[msstate7]

Olson, drive this ball

[jsebe10]

Riley pissing down his leg now…bases loaded and big moment. He’s shaking in his fckn cleats.

[msstate7]

Riley if you hit a groundball, you're officially disowned by Mississippi

[CyYoung31]

That’ll work. But, we need Riley to lift one.

[thethe]

Great sign that strider bounced back against a tough lineup. Very impressive

[msstate7]

Great sign that strider bounced back against a tough lineup. Very impressive

Really was. I was worried about him tonight

[Heyward]

good AB, Riley.

[msstate7]

Atta boy, Riley

[bravesnumberone]

That’ll work but we need more.

[CyYoung31]

Good work.

[msstate7]

That’ll work but we need more.

Still can get more

[VirginiaBrave]

I would not want to know where we would be w/o 7/27.

[msstate7]

Got 2 runs minter and Jansen, make it stand

[jsebe10]

Marcell just can’t help himself man…He swings as if he’s trying to hit the bitch to New Orleans on any count

[bravesnumberone]

Marcell just can’t help himself man…He swings as if he’s trying to hit the bitch to New Orleans on any count

He cannot keep his feet still to save his life.

[msstate7]

Marcell just can’t help himself man…He swings as if he’s trying to hit the bitch to New Orleans on any count

He's frustrating for sure, but he's drove in the last 3 go ahead RBIs

[msstate7]

FF getting carved up lol

[jsebe10]

LA media is NOT going to like Freeman this weekend and they will make it known.

[bravesnumberone]

LA media is NOT going to like Freeman this weekend and they will make it known.

They were saying he looked like a donkey two weeks into the season.

[msstate7]

LA media is NOT going to like Freeman this weekend and they will make it known.

They should eat some salary and send him back lol

[Heyward]

Minter=good.

[bravesnumberone]

It would be nice to not have to sweat it in the ninth.

[msstate7]

Get Jansen 1 more run

[jsebe10]

They were saying he looked like a donkey two weeks into the season.

And Freddie isn’t used to that type of negative coverage. He’s used to the occasional beer gutted inbred hurling insults when he’s struggling but not the media.

[Heyward]

They should eat some salary and send him back lol

https://media4.giphy.com/media/XzsQ4z8EhOPBOfpSMK/giphy.gif

[bravesnumberone]

Minter=good.

He’s come a long way. Hard to believe a year ago he was getting blasted every appearance and being sent down.

[bravesnumberone]

Who is this fat ****?

[msstate7]

https://media4.giphy.com/media/XzsQ4z8EhOPBOfpSMK/giphy.gif

Obviously it isn't happening, but I could think of worse things than FF and Olson with the DH in Nl now

[CyYoung31]

Does Karl Ravech ever shut the **** up?

[bravesnumberone]

Love Freddie and I’m sure it’s been difficult for him (a lot of it he did to himself), but Jesus, Karl, he’s not Roy Hobbs with a gunshot wound.

[msstate7]

Does Karl Ravech ever shut the **** up?

No, he's the espn version of me

[bravesnumberone]

Obviously it isn't happening, but I could think of worse things than FF and Olson with the DH in Nl now

This is what I wanted to happen from the outset. But yea I’m sure the Dodgers will make that deal now if we send them Fried.

[Hulavol]

Moronta is a heart attack waiting to happen.

[Five]

Moronta is a heart attack waiting to happen.
Those buttons on his jersey are hanging on for dear life.

[msstate7]

This is what I wanted to happen from the outset. But yea I’m sure the Dodgers will make that deal now if we send them Fried.

Yeah, no
