GDT 7/30 Miami at Atlanta

[Garmel]

It'd be interesting if he was another case where the Braves told him to switch hit since he wasn't exactly a big profile signee from Panama. It worked for Albies, but it's not exactly working for him.

Makes me wonder if he could give up the left side altogether doing the off-season. Knowing nothing about his past I'm just speculating.

Inconsistent umpiring causes Dietrich to walk. He probably deserved to walk but the fifth and sixth pitches of the at bat were in exactly the same place. One was called a strike; the next one a ball.

What we don’t know is if he’s just not good batting left-handed, or he actually doesn’t see righties well, or both.

[GeorgiaGirl]

Reviewing Camargo's numbers, it appears he was indeed a "told to switch hit" guy or decided on his own to try, and it actually happened a couple years after he started out down there.

The most interesting thing is while he started out as a RHH, after he started switch hitting, it wasn't until 2016 where it flipped back to that side being better, and it was evident he was starting to add growing power there.

If he never tried, he may have been a late bloomer made good given progression, but I'm kinda on the side that it might be too late now.

Bold prediction: Braves acquire both Dietrich and Prado after the game.

walk Bour here?

Bold prediction: Braves acquire both Dietrich and Prado after the game.

...and give up what in return?

[UNCBlue012]

Marlins get one back on Realmuto double. That sucked... Teheran gave it up on a two-out, two-strike count.

Give me Jt Realmuto instead of those 2.

[striker42]

Not an elite performance by the umpire tonight

[CyYoung31]

...and give up what in return?

Austin Riley.

The aforementioned inconsistent umpiring costs the Braves a run.

[bravesfanMatt]

Sam Freeman time. Oh wait. Will twitner know who to call first?

[USMA76]

Austin Riley.

Sign me up.

[UNCBlue012]

Huge strikeout.

[Enscheff]

Julio facing the order a 3rd time, and Snit waits until after Realmuto doubles to get some up in the pen. Inexcusable.

[bravesfanMatt]

Thank god. Pen can take this home boys.

I'm guessing Carle comes in for the 6th.

[bravesfanMatt]

Better team smacks JT around tonight.

So you're saying that whole "third time through the order" thingy is kind of a big deal?
