    Gray is carving us up right now.

    Also, Camargo just struck out on one of the absolute worst pitches that I’ve ever seen lol

    Might need to leave Culberson in the line-up more as hot as he's been. After his slow start he has been killing righties with an OPS over .900. But I wouldn't sit Swanson friday as he has good numbers vs the lefty going. I'd sit him more vs righties while Culberson is hot and give Camargo days off vs some righties too.

    If you throw three strikes before four balls above the knees, he can't hit that either unless he specifically looks for it.
    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.

    This is bull****, Teheran had him struck out! This game is 1-1 and Julio would be cruising if not for this bull****.

    If the runner now on second scores, it ought to go on the ump's ERA rather than Julio's.

    Kurt is one of the worst framing catchers in baseball, this isn't very surprising at all.

    Aside from that horrid meatball for a homer, Julio has been good.

    Teheran pitching well minus the homer, ump is costing us.

    Braves pitching has actually been better than the Philthies lately. Both SP and RP.

    That strike three called a ball wasn't such a bad frame, he held it in the zone and still called a ball. He could've framed others close better though.

    Yesterday was pretty high emotion. So not surprising to see a bit of a hangover.
