GDT 5/5/21: Braves @ Gnats - Fried Returns

[CyYoung31]

Wtf is going on with Freeman. He’s not even having competitive ABs. I’ve never seen him this inept, even with the injured elbow.

[msstate7]

Radio said FF barely made contact with a middle middle fastball at 91. During ozuna AB, he said he's concerned about FF

[USMA76]

If Zimmerman hadn’t constantly been injured once he turned 29, he might be on a hall of fame track.

Agreed. An interesting "what if?" Seems like a pretty good guy too.

[salmagundy]

We have talked briefly about Freddie's possible elbow injury. We haven't talked about his eye sight. He seems to not see the pitch low and away very well. He wears reading glasses so that may be part of his problem. He's had vision problems in the past.

[Slippyjms]

Freeman isn’t gonna get a big money extension like that

Snitker needs to show some balls and put an end to this. He let Freddie get away with **** during the playoffs a couple of years ago and it hurt us.

[UNCBlue012]

Seeing Freddie like this is weird. I have no doubt he’ll figure it out and turn it around but he’s just always so disciplined.

Who’s Radio?

What about when he was blind

[TURBO]

Surprised this isn't Soto

[CyYoung31]

What about when he was blind

So long ago I don’t remember if he was this bad.

[UNCBlue012]

HOLY ****, MAX

[Julio3000]

That did not go like expected it to, thankfully.

that kind of sequencing with a sprinkle of luck was 2020 Max Fried in a nutshell

[NYCBrave]

Did we literally just get struck out on 9 pitches?

[CyYoung31]

Edgar Santana, huh? That’s what we’re saying?

[salmagundy]

Matzek already throwing in BP after the BBs to Castro and 2 outs

[Slippyjms]

Santana looks like he could be useful

[Garmel]

Santana has a decent 2-seamer.

Hasn’t really been mentioned much but I wonder how much Freddie’s contract is weighing on him.
