It's been a long time since we have seen Viz lose the strike zone like that.
Don't mind the loss though.
That was awful, but come on crowd... viz has been one of the bright spots this year, stop booing him
I think that was the biggest issue people had with both the Soroka and Riley picks, at least I know it was for me and from what I remember for most posters at the time. At the time I was miffed we didn't go with a bat with Soroka's pick and grab Soroka with the next pick. Obviously in retrospect it wasn't worth taking the risk Soroka wasn't there. I don't remember many being overly critical of the Minter pick outside of being wary about the TJ angle.
I can't stand the Nats. In fact I hate them so much I'll pull for a cubs' sweep and I hate the cubs too.
Lol @ joe... who blaming snit for the walks? Still want snit gone
Chuckie's tells all his pitchers that if you keep throwing the ball as hard as you can, eventually a hitter will swing. you have to trust the process.. I mean that philosophy propelled Chuckie all the way to AA with a 7.1/9 BB... You have to believe in a guy like that...

Chopping With The Braves And Rolling With The Tide

Swanson is 4 for last 30 with 10 Ks
Albies is 2 for last 22 with 6 Ks
This is not how I want them to close out the year.
I wouldn't conflate the two. The season numbers are what need to be looked at. Swanson is probably the biggest Braves disappointment this year (and I say this even from the vantage point of someone who never bought into the hype the way a lot of others around here did). Albies came into the season as a highly rated prospect and has enhanced his value if anything.

"I am a victim, I will tell you. I am a victim."
"I am your retribution."
I tend to give Ramirez and Viz a pass, if Viz would have been closing all year how many more wins are we talking about?
