Wentz was already written off so no need following him

Wentz was he written off. He can still gohard after hitters. Sims to me there is still weigel room for him to grow.

Ugh...too early Matt....just to early...ha

We are about to go from attaining three starters this year getting by, to having a complete log Jam of pitchers starting next year and for the next three or four years to come.

You might say keep some guys in AAA, but with the AA pitching staff doing well...there just aren't enough spots. I realize some will be traded. Interesting part is that when we of course did that this year, it was with much less talented pitchers (except for Povse).

Will be really interesting and gut wrenching at the same time. Will they trade the "right" pitchers? I'm thinking with the talent level, there is no way we make the right decision at even a 75% clip. Of course what we get back also will be big. So far, way too early assessments have Coppy doing some of his best work in these type trades #thanksseattle.

A big trade will happen in the next 2-3 years. I think the braves wants to see how Acuna/Maitan develop and then decide what long term position they should go after.

Sims 1 hit ball through 3 innings....

[bravesfanMatt]

Sims 1 hit ball through 3 innings....

The offense for both teams are awful today. G-braves have popped up on infield 5 times easily.

[bravesfanMatt]

Sims 1 hit ball through 3 innings....

bloop double.. both hits off Sims have been soft dinkers.

[zbhargrove]

Sims looks fantastic... well under a 1 WHIP for the year too

[bravesfanMatt]

he just struck out the last hitter of the sixth.. twice, except the ump didn't call it. Even the hitter turned and walked away.. single instead.. minor league umps are horrible..

[50PoundHead]

Sharif don't like it. Rock the Kazmar.

[bravesfanMatt]

Man, Sim's curve is nasty.

[bravesfanMatt]

looked like something was bothering sims.. got ahead 0-2 and landed funny... catcher came out and Sims said he was alright.. pointed to mound where he lands.. Not sure what it is/was, but he hasn't been the same.. fastball getting away.. curve bouncing..

[bravesfanMatt]

Hit the leadoff guy after ahead 0-2.. then coach came out and again he pointed to landing spot. 2-1 fastball to the next hitter was crushed to tie game. Credit to Sims for settling down and getting the next 3 fairly easy. Figure that is it for Sims. good start imo..

[UNCBlue012]

Man, great stuff Sims! I've always liked the kid, so hopefully he really pans out.

Is it possible that our tremendous pitching system got better?
