GDT #70. 6/17 7:10 PM EST Phillies(Kendrick) @ Braves(Santana) No Gattis

Beautiful swing for Jason! Come on BJ...

DOB jsut made the point of the worn out bullpen and that Santana at 49 pitches thru 3. At this rate will have to go to the pen in the 6th. That is not good. This next inning will be key.
C'mon Earvin -- you can do it !!!!

Maybe he was fooled --- 2 strikes too - right?
C'mon man

Please do something freddie. I can't stand being shut down by this 88 mph throwing jerk off!! Man I hate the Phillies.

He's batting .209, .282 OBP, .345 SLG %, and 85 Ks in 251 ABs....

He needs to be on the bench and would be on any other team. Sorry.

Wow... the camera made it look like Freddie hit that out. I can't believe we haven't scored on this pitcher. He's beyond freaking terrible.

Maybe Fredi can take back that pitch to Howard -- oh look, BJ got a 2 out hit

Probably wouldn't have been fooled if he had shortened up and cut down on the swing with two strikes

Marquis Grissom

Fredi should bench Freeman. that AB was unacceptable. And, why didnt he have BJ steal second to get in scoring position.
I actually blame that on Wren

1-2 to a walk. Come on Santana. Just stop doing it.

Marquis Grissom isn't walking through that door. Andruw Jones isn't walking through that door. ****ing Otis Nixon isn't walking through that door.

why hasnt Fredi pulled Santana yet? Sheeeesh

Pshhhh. That's easy.

ME!!!! Duh!!!

No..,I'd probably entertain the idea of Gattis to LF and shift the other two. Yes Gattis is suspect in LF, but he's even more suspect at the plate. And Upton isn't exactly diving all over the field making catches either. Just gotta improvise and adapt, not beat a dead horse. Fredi is trying to force BJ into getting it going by putting him in the 2 hole.

Dude the players not performing doesn't make Freddi's bad decisions any better. He probably gets blamed for too much around here, but he does make a lot of poor decisions.

But of those, Grissom was the oly one that hit 2nd (I think ! )

Actually Otis would be a nice fit on this team. Jordan Shafer skills with the ugliest face to ever garner an MLB uni
