[msstate7]

No flowers at catcher or DH. Cincinnati bound?

[msstate7]

Peterson 2-2, hr

He's warming up.

[50PoundHead]

Peterson 2-2, hr

He's warming up.

His K-rate has been uncharacteristically high thus far in 2018. Good to see him hit HRs in back-to-back games. Curious to see where his career ends up.

[bravesfanMatt]

Always been a big D-Pete supporter. Hope he can stay hot

[msstate7]

Bautista 0-3

[CJ9]

Peterson with an RBI double in his third AB.

[Enscheff]

Top 25 prospect?

[bravesfanMatt]

Top 25 prospect?

Serious man. Don’t be dumb. A few hot days won’t bump him up that far. Probably more like 30 to 35.

[bravesfanMatt]

Bustista continuing the strong showing against minor leaguers.

Luke Jackson working on making his numbers across both levels more consistent.

Bautista...
MLB '17 = -0.5 fWAR in 157 games, .674 ops
AAA '18 = .384 ops before 0-4 today

Camargo...
MLB '17 = 1.2 fWAR in 82 games, .783 ops
AAA '18 = .997 ops

Better hitter = Camargo
Better defender = Camargo
Starting 3b = Bautista

Why do our GMs keep having these bizarre fetishes for 3b (Garcia, olivera, Bautista)?

I think it's clear AA doesn't believe in Camargo. And that's an understandable stance to take as many on here don't believe in his SSS last year.

AA has a past with Joey Bats and is throwing him a bone to see if any magic happens. If/when he falls on his face he will be gone soon enough.

Well in a year before our window opens, doesn't it make sense to see if Camargo was a fluke or not? Bautista seems like a play to sell tickets, not a sound baseball move

I would play Camargo, sure. Also could point to either a big upgrade at 3B next year too or Riley being the guy for most of the year if he continues to impress.

[bravesfanMatt]

Ouch. Well played.

[bravesfanMatt]

Good lord. Jesus is no noing the Mississippi Braves. Hope Riley can rise up and save us.

[CJ9]

Jon Kennedy promoted from High A to Triple A and did well in his debut: 2.2 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 2 K. He's an interesting guy, only 23 and Ks went up early this year for him in Florida. http://www.milb.com/player/index.jsp...ching/2018/ALL

Looks like fast track to Atlanta

We need all the help we can get for the bullpen.
