GDT--Sat, 6/30 vs Cards

[Enscheff]

Does Markakis deserve his contract yet? *amn algorithms.

There’s the stupid

[msstate7]

There’s the stupid

Would you keep Markakis if 1 year would keep him? I'd offer 1, but not multiple

[UNCBlue012]

Fried...

[nsacpi]

tremendous game by Fried

[AerchAngel]

Ok, Fried curve is seriously NASTY.

[CrimsonCowboy]

Man, those curve balls to Ozuna were a pitching work of art

[CyYoung31]

I like it.

[Oklahomabrave]

I’ve seen the game day app and the graphic on TV show Fried throws a cutter. I noticed it his last game too. @Ensheff Are they mis classifying his sinker? Don’t recall seeing a cutter for your data.

[CyYoung31]

Thethe making most of us look like idiots.

For the record, I never had an opinion on Fried one way or the other. So I can't be wrong.

[Enscheff]

Ok, Fried curve is seriously NASTY.

It’s one of the 3-4 best pitches in the organization.

If he has fine tuned that sinker as I suggested months ago, he might be a legit MOR piece. I look forward to seeing his pitch data tomorrow.

Y'all are talking way too soon given Markakis history, he's usually a much better first half performer than second half. If he does like last year this second half we may miss the playoffs with him being our clean-up hitter. That is why I am hoping we add Beltre to hit 4th and drop Markakis to 5th giving us depth should he have a second half like last year.

On the third pitch I said " you better throw him a curve or I will go through my computer screen and strangle you"

Nasty curve to end it. He saw my eyes.

[PurpleBrave]

Maybe I'm wrong about Fried. He hasn't looked half bad

Absolutely carved up a veteran hitter. I had no idea Fried had this kind of stuff.

[UNCBlue012]

thethe drives me up a wall and he’s insanely optimistic about everything, but I’m with him on Fried. He’s so underrated by this board. There’s a reason the guy is pretty regularly a top 75-100 guy in the overall rankings.

[Southcack77]

give him a qualifying offer. Upside we get a 1 year deal or a draft pick.

If they aren't going to be in on one of the big free agents, then it's not the worst idea.

[sturg33]

I don't see why Markakis would take a 1 year deal. When you have a career year at age 35, would be kinda stupid to settlle for a 1-year deal only to hope you do the exact same thing again

Probably not, but I'd take if he would. No reason to not offer a 1 year deal

[CrimsonCowboy]

Nice job kid.

[jpx7]

Weird that Fried didn’t even try against that final batter.
