GDT #53, 5/29/'14: Braves (Minor) vs. Red Sox (Peavy), 7:10 EST

This team is painful to watch.

[Braves78]

Braves are about to get swept by Miami and be back by 3 games never to see 1st again.

Jason has had 36 PA with runners on base, you expect him to have 50 RBIs?

Jason is the table setter, his job is to get on. Fredi took the bat from La Stella when he shouldn't have. No reason to sacrifice with SImmons who's been ice cold behind him.

Simmons had two hits tonight. It was a selfish AB, though. If La Stella wasn't bunting, then Schafer should have been running.

you play for one run in that situation, and besides, Simmons had hit the ball hard tonight.

Please look at the RBI total in the lead off spot last year from him...

Red Sox just went 0-10 vs AL East teams, glad we ain't in that division.

[CyYoung31]

This was a horse **** series.

Hopefully this is just nerves from La Stella. I'm hoping that he's not that bad in the field. He seems hesitant and not confident out there.

I don't know about never, but we clearly have issues to iron out. I don't see the East as a strong division, so we have time to iron it out.

Frustrating as hell to watch tho.

[VirginiaBrave]

Just an overrated team that overacheived last year.

[gilesfan]

Any explanation for the use of Kimbrel tonight? Won't use in do or die game, but well use in the 8th inning of a tie game in May?

Looked the same way in the spring, I understand.

[UNCBlue012]

So, I see that we lost 3 of 4 games that we pretty much should of had won... and I see that we made errors on really easy plays. Good to see this. So dumb.

[Dunit24]

Im still not worried about this team. We have beaten ourselves a lot lately. 11-18 over the last 29, but still tied for first. This team will go on a roll and run away with the division.

[cjones4hof]

Best way to get out your current 10 game losing streak????

Play the braves!! They'll hand you a 3 game win streak!

I think Fredi wanted to get Kimbrel some work today. He hadn't pitched since the 23rd.

[UNCBlue012]

Worried? No. Pissed? Yes.

[BlackwaterPark]

I'm trying to find motivation to go see them in Miami but just cant lol
