    Weird. I was told by several derpalytics geniuses on these boards that when pitchers are doing well the stats about facing a lineup a 3rd time don’t matter.
    He was closing in on 90 pitches, so that has to be taken into account as well. I'm not saying he should have gone out again, but he did have a no-no going and he was up 5 runs. Why not try to get another inning out of him? He probably shouldn't have pitched to Suzuki.

    It will tell me all I need to know about whether its worth having a baseball discussion with you haha.
    I respect your opinion on baseball. Why do you think Camargo is getting zero shot? Why call him up if he isn't going to get a chance? And especially, why in God's name would you put Culberson or Bourjos at the plate before him?

    Only explanation is they are giving bourjas and culberson one more look before we cut them.

    I have no idea. I think he should be playing.

    I just find it halarious how the board melts down into pure irrational blabber after 2 bad games immediately after being overjoyed with a few good series.

    There are some classic lines about how the Braves are going to be swept, how there’s some personal vendetta against Camargo and numerous other derrrp-worthy comments.

    I think Camargo could hit 40 doubles if he got to play most of the time

    They need some kind of shot in the arm. I feel like they will wait for the home stand for Acuna.

    Tucker trying for the double there is moronic even if he is safe.

    AA has said he prefers players to debut on the road so I don't think that'll be the case.

    I think it's soon with Acuna or until super 2. If he does well for the next two games I think we're going to see a wild Acuna sighting for the next series.
    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.

    Let’s talk about something good. Freddie Freeman can hit a dam baseball.

    One would hope that Snit pinch hits Camargo for Flaherty, but with short bench options, that isn't happening.

    Lmao I'm a member of a forum that is even looser than this rules wise. It's not crazy to me.
