    Seriously. The hell, people?

    Newcomb lucky to get out of the 1st unscathed.

    Acuna needs to stop looking back when he’s running the bases.

    Aguilar has zero range.

    But that old man can run!

    On the radio side, Don Sutton said that there is good news for Braves fans: Sam Freeman is starting his rehab assignment.

    I'm not sure that was a straight steal for Acuna, but then again, he looked back twice to see if they're picking him off on other steals recently.
    Aggression with prospects is fine, but being stupid is not. There should be a way to find a happy medium between a Pirates like idea of being overly cautious with prospects and going stupidly fast with prospects.

    If he's used about twice a week, then thats good, just not every day Sam.

    It took Anderson 38 pitches to get through 6 batters.

    Not sure if I want Atlanta to get into Milwaukee pen quickly unless it's a blowout.

    It actually isn't that great outside Hader/Jeffress/Burnes and everyone except them has struggled lately I think.

    Hopefully he settles in, but Newk doesn’t loom great thus far
