Sigh Ozzie chased Ball 4, least they got his pitch count up.

Folty ranked #25 in BP's CMD stat, and #18 in their CSAA stat, out of 75 qualified SPs in 2017.

I wouldn't call that bottom 20, but you've never been wrong about anything, so who am I to disagree?

Well since Newcomb is wayyyy better than Folty at hitting his spots I would imagine he would be close to top 10 no?

Nice pitch.

Throw at the top of the zone like verlander

Why are the Braves trying to increase the pitch count of a terrible pitcher?

Your crush on Newcomb is clouding your judgment of his rotation-mate.

Neck!

**CyYoung31** · 04-23-2018, 06:41 PM

Neck power!

He has been much better vs lefties in the minors too, including the last few in AA and AAA. I think he had something like a .970 OPS vs lefties and just over .700 vs righties in AAA in 2017. AA in 2016 was even more dramatic IIRC.

neck lifted weight before the game!

**thethe** · 04-23-2018, 06:42 PM

Trade him

**GeorgiaGirl** · 04-23-2018, 06:43 PM

I feel like this is a broken record at this point, but once again, Folty's issue has everything to do with everyone can foul him off with no problem no matter what.

Markakis homers. This park is a joke lmao.

No idea haha. I don't think that "stat" is very good honestly, but I thought it was funny to link it.

The Nectar is sweet.

**Freshmaker** · 04-23-2018, 06:48 PM

**Braves1976** · 04-23-2018, 06:48 PM

I think that got both Markakis and Tucker back up over .800 OPS, Tucker is .801 now. Markakis needs to play in Cincy to improve his power numbers.

**GeorgiaGirl** · 04-23-2018, 06:48 PM

Folty does feel like a guy better coaching might be able to unlock as there is interesting stuff there but I wouldn't trust Chuck Hernandez/this staff to do it.

Like if he went to Houston, as an example (ironically), he might completely bust out there.

**Southcack77** · 04-23-2018, 06:49 PM

I will be so happy when markakis’s contract expires so I don’t have to read another dumb comment about trading him.
