GDT: Pirates vs Braves 5/22/17

[Garmel]

Swanson gonna get that run back with leadoff double

It happened!

[msstate7]

It happened!

Double did, but folty garbage bunt

[Enscheff]

He's framing the **** out of some pitches tho.

Correct, Castro is still an elite pitch framer.

[thewupk]

our base running has been atrocious this year

[Garmel]

our base running has been atrocious this year

It just cost us a run.

[Hawk]

Yup.

[thewupk]

It just cost us a run.

usually does it seems

[Southcack77]

Yeah, I'm sure by the end of the year we will be glad the Braves had Suzuki platooning with Flowers instead of Castro. Genius!

Pretty sure whatever happens, the Braves are going to be pretty ok with not owing Jason Castro 8 million in 2018 and 8 million in 2019.

[GovClintonTyree]

Yeah the Braves should've listened to Enscheff and signed Jason Castro. He's killing it in Minnesota. Sadly we ended up with the Suzuki/Flowers platoon.

Allow me to assume the role of Enscheff for a moment.

<ahem. tap-tap>

Another nitwit Posi-Brave who doesn't understand how to properly value a player. You're looking at his batting average, aren't you, genius? There are a whole bunch of new stats that properly evaluate a player. You really should read up on WAR so you can understand how batting average and counting stats mean NOTHING.

In fact, if you had half a brain you'd understand Castro was signed for $8.5m and he's already at 1 WAR. He's already earned his salary. He'll be worth over $30m this season.

You'll also notice that Minnesota is leading the AL Central division. Do any of you inbred Southern dipwad racists think there might be a cause and effect there? Didn't think so. Keep derping along, Smoky.

[Hawk]

Thin-skinned ump.

[Garmel]

I don't blame the Pirates. Awful call.

[Ozzie Swanson]

Yeah, I'm sure by the end of the year we will be glad the Braves had Suzuki platooning with Flowers instead of Castro. Genius!

Castro hasn't hit worth **** since 2014. Congrats on him framing pitches well. Flowers does that too. Admit you were wrong for once.

That's about the most intelligent thing I ever read from you. Bravo!
