GDT: 5/9 at Rays

[CJ9]

Hopefully the front office has the stones to move on from Moylan. He’s toast.

[UNCBlue012]

Let’s go, Minter!

[Braves1976]

Sure looked like a play Albies should've made.

Yes. Now we use Minter's too. I love Snit. Remember this when it costs us a game vs Miami.

[Southcack77]

Despite the error, Acuna has been good in LF overall with us. He has looked bad at times doing so. But his range is fine and he came in with 1 DRS in left. Nothing special as far as saving runs. But he isn't costing us on defense at all.

I don’t think he’s played LF much. that might have something to do with it.

[Braves1976]

Miller didn't see a single strike, he swung at all balls.

[Braves1976]

Bad pitch, right down the middle.

[WaitingFor2017]

There are no certainties, but if you let Julio try to finish the 7th, you'd have a dominant Freeman to pitch the 8th -- now you're down Moylan and Minter for tomorrow's game, and the tying run is at the plate in this game.

[USMA76]

Guarding the line cost us two runs there.

[msstate7]

There are no certainties, but if you let Julio try to finish the 7th, you'd have a dominant Freeman to pitch the 8th -- now you're down Moylan and Minter for tomorrow's game, and the tying run is at the plate in this game.

Julio having back trouble 2 starts ago could've played into decision. If so, I'm fine with pulling Julio. We need him

[CJ9]

And now Winkler is up again. We’re going to have a bullpen full of blown elbows by the All-Star break.

[AerchAngel]

I hope Moylan is gone after this game.

I rather have a root canal than watch him pitch. He is horrible.

Moylan is the dude they throw with a big lead they want to lose so his usage was perfect.

Watch Viz come in to close in the 9th too. Even when we don't use them Snit warms them up too much. This will kill us the second half, shades of Fredi.

[WaitingFor2017]

Use Biddle in the 9th. He didn't pitch yesterday, has better splits vs. Righties, and you won't get to overusing Winkler. Vizcaino hasn't looked good in awhile.

[CJ9]

I’d be stunned if he didn’t go to Viz in the ninth. You’re right, just the way he is.

I’m genuinely intrigued by who AA will hire to replace him this offseason. Hopefully it’s not a dinosaur like we’ve been stuck with lately.

[Southcack77]

Julio having back trouble 2 starts ago could've played into decision. If so, I'm fine with pulling Julio. We need him

Having a guy who isn’t breaking 90 and has had velocity issues witching the last week go over 100 pitches (and face the order a third time! Oh no?) isn’t a no brainer.

At least Snit made the moves to shut it down before it got worse. I approve of using minter and Winkler.

[msstate7]

Bautista, flowers, and camargo is a rough stretch for braves offense

[USMA76]

Joey Bats at the Mendoza Line and heading south.

[WaitingFor2017]

I'd rather see Flaherty or Tucker DH'ing out there over Bautista.

Can’t wait for Dansby to get back.
