Snit said in his pre game that Folty was slated to rehab in Carolina?? Wonder why there.

Gwinnett's on the road in Louisville, so it's most likely a proximity thing.

[IslandBrave]

Ozzie headed back to AA to start playing with Dansby.

[msstate7]

At bat shows folty as Atlanta starter tonight fwiw

Coming to say this. Snit said he is healthy and ready. I don't like this. We are messing with his future for a meaningless game. Let him go about 85 pitches in the minors where he knows it doesn't matter.

How are we messing with his future by starting him in Atlanta instead of Carolina?

I think rehab starts should be just that.. rehab.. I understand you throw a pitch regardless if you are in Atlanta or Carolina. But If his arm still needs time to build strength, then throwing in higher leverage situations could be bad. I just think if a team doctor says let him throw in the minors a few games to build back arm strength and test elbow.. then you do that if your season is already down the ****ter.. what benefit does bringing him back early accomplish? We are not going to win this year.. let some scrub throw and we can get our brains beat in.. WHO CARES!!!

I just don't know why we're assuming doctors told him to throw in the minors and we're just snubbing them and decided, 'Who cares, just pitch him in Atlanta.' If he's going to pitch anyway, and we feel like he's ready to throw in the majors, then let him throw in the majors.

We have a tendency to be overly dramatic about everything. Starting in Atlanta instead of Carolina is not going to ruin his career.

I do think the stress of effort (from adrenaline and so forth) is greater in a major league game than a rehab start. Theoretically you can rehab in major league games, but there is some increased risk.

[Preacher]

Feels like they mismanaged this Ozzy thing a little bit. If the goal is to have them play together, should have left Ozzy at AA.

Feels like spin to me.

Spin? He started off slow, but he's more than holding his own at AAA. I think he's hit about .300 over his last 10 games. I think it's more that Dansby may not be ready for AAA

[Julio3000]

Yep

[bravesfanMatt]

Yep

hitting .300 over the last 7 days doesn't scream demotion.

[msstate7]

hitting .300 over the last 7 days doesn't scream demotion.

Would defense play a part in a demotion? He has 11 errors at Gwinnett

[bravesfanMatt]

No. But 11 errors at SS probably pushes him to 2B.

[cajunrevenge]

No. But 11 errors at SS probably pushes him to 2B.

From what I have seen of the guys who play 1b for Gwinnett they would be below average defenders as a DH, much less 1b.

So it makes more sense to demote Ozzy who has started to hit well in AAA, than it is to wait for Dansby to get promoted? For what purpose? So te two can play together, even though that was never a consideration in the past?

This feels mismanaged

It makes sense if they're wanting Albies to learn a new position. Let him play at a level he's more comfortable at, let him and Dansby play together, and let Ozzie learn the new position.

There really is nothing to see here it seems. They want them playing together. AA is where the rubber meets the road, and Albies destroyed it. I don't think they are worried about him at all, and want to see them together at some point before Cobb. So, it makes sense.
