GDT 4/4, Cubs

[Heyward]

Fried looking good. Who did we give up for him to SD?

He came in the Upton trade, i believe, Justin.

[UNCBlue012]

Is this rain really going to screw this game up? Rain delays are the worst.

[CyYoung31]

What’s the forecast.

Perfection.

[msstate7]

Folty...
5.0 ip 0 h 0 er 2 bb 2 k

[50PoundHead]

He came in the Upton trade, i believe, Justin.

Correct. We received Fried, J. Peterson, D. Peterson, and M. Smith along with him.

[Braves1976]

Darvish is just lucky so far.

[msstate7]

Come on Donaldson damn

[Heyward]

Donaldson missed a hanger smh

[thethe]

Perfection.

Love you

[Braves1976]

braves bats are getting pitches to hit and are missing them.

[jpack1]

The Braves certainly have more arm talent in the rotation now with Folty, Fried, Wright and Gausman. Add an improved Teheran and Soroka on the horizon and a good staff is starting to materialize.

[Braves1976]

braves bats need to wake up, not hitting bad pitching.

Hard to see how Newk sticks unless he tightens up on the walks, too much talent is behind him.

[thethe]

How many strikes did fried throw to bryant?

[Hudson2]

Fried is lookin good

[Freshmaker]

If Acuna is so good, and is protecting Freeman in the lineup, why does Freeman already have 7 BBs?

It's almost like the idea of "protection" is moronic.

Right, which is why it was extremely effing stupid to move Acuna to cleanup. He should be hitting leadoff

[CyYoung31]

Correct. We received Fried, J. Peterson, D. Peterson, and M. Smith along with him.

Not a bad trade in hindsight. The Petersons didn’t amount to much, but Fried and Mallex are bonafide Major League talents.

[Freshmaker]

No K's is a little alarming but when hes projected to be back, next week, 2 weeks?

I think the original plan, barring any setbacks of course, was for him to make 2 starts in AAA and then bring him up. So yeah 10 days or so unless he talks his way into an 1-start-only rehab

[Freshmaker]

Not a bad trade in hindsight. The Petersons didn’t amount to much, but Fried and Mallex are bonafide Major League talents.

Yeah Mallex we flipped for Gohara, so that could end up being a really good trade for us
