GDT #70. 6/17 7:10 PM EST Phillies(Kendrick) @ Braves(Santana) No Gattis

Do we have an OF in the whole damn system that can hit at all? Heyward can play CF but there is literally not another OF at all

Obviously outside of J Up and Heyward. Another one.

Ok, so let me get this straight. We pinch run for our best hitter last night and tonight we let Lard hit in that situation.

[Garmel]

We're in one of those ruts where the worst possible thing that can happen to us happens. That last inning was a good example of that.

I think we just drafted a guy a couple weeks ago that is can possibly do that...klol

[jason27nc]

I don't like the ball boy down the RF line.

Me either, and that beer lady sucks at her job too. Too slow if you ask me. They need to go down to the minors and bring up a new prospect.

[jsebe10]

If we lose this series...we are literally salvaging these fudge packers' season...Let them right back in the division

Kyle Wren, who is Frank's son, is a good CF and he's hitting well. Unfortunately he's only in high A ball right now.

Too bad we didn't have a catcher to pinch hit for Laird who leads all catchers in homers, is on a 16 game hit stresk, and is proven clutch pinch hitter...oh wait.

he'll pinch hit in the 9th with no one on base.

Ehh idk. You could say we were lucky Byrd dropped that ball and that we scored at sll. You can create your own luck and letting Laird hit there is a good way to create some bad luck.

[jsebe10]

Christ....Deikman is up in the pen...Jason, take the rest of the night off buddy...

[jpack1]

I was bring so little sarcastic. But more refering to nobody to promote to take these current fockers places we have now.

Ok, you got it from here.

Here is my thing...

We lost game 1 embarrassingly in extra innnings...Why not put your best lineup out there and try to get game two? Start Gattis tonight and sit him in the day game tomorrow since Fredi gets his little slit wet by sitting him apparently....Just dont get the logic I guess

I didn't know tm is a day game. Ya that def should have been the game he got off.

[stpeteirish]

please change pitchers.

[USMA76]

Time to pull Mr. Roboto.

"Than Hansel sooooo hot right now!"

[tomahawkchop10]

Didn't Deikman blow a save vs us in Philly?

[USMA76]

I believe he did but the Phillies (and Diekman) are playing a lot better than they were last time we saw them.
