CLASS A

Rome (16-8) idle.

All Times Eastern

[clvclv]

Didn't look close enough at first and was about to go nuts - didn't realize Rome was off today until now. Otherwise we'd have had Fried, Touki, and Anderson going on the same day. This *hit is nuts!

[bravesfanMatt]

going to watch Fried throw a 7 inning complete game shut out while 'working'.. did a little work last night to make sure I had some time today.

[bravesfanMatt]

5th grade choir did anthem. Nice to hear it and it not be a 10 minute production trying to make the 'artist' bigger than the song.

Last start...
7.0 ip 1 h 0 er 1 bb 6 k

If he has another good start today, I'm gonna start getting excited

Missing up a little right now. When he has been down, the Ump is not calling it.

[bravesfanMatt]

I might just listen to this game. this feed is comical. They are cutting away in the middle of action. Curico just missed played a ball for a double and the camera stayed on the catcher. It is a joke.

[bravesfanMatt]

This home plate ump is a F'ing joke. There might be 30 runs scored today. must be the off spring of CB Douchener..

[bravesfanMatt]

Brett Walker is a tool. the ump is call the zone like it is the size of a soup can.. and he goes up hacking at everything he sees.

[Managuarantano's Volunteers]

13 of me. A bit unlucky. Might want to add a few or forty more, Ventura.

[CJ9]

Not exactly a great start to the season for Max Fried.

[MadduxFanII]

He's way too young and the sample size is way too small to freak out about it, but I'll confess I'd like to see Albies start hitting at AAA. He's at .250/.299/.359 in 320 AAA at-bats, which is less than ideal. Again, and to be perfectly clear, this isn't anything to worry too much about, but Albies is our best upper-level position prospect, so it would be nice if he'd start hitting.

[CJ9]

Interesting note from a Fangraphs write up that Soroka was included in:

"The one worrisome stat is that he’s gone from producing an above-average ground-ball rate (about 51% 2015-16) to just 38.5% in ’17 and he’s already allowed three homers. Soroka is going to have to get the ball down more consistently to avoid getting into trouble as he approaches The Show."

Again, and to be perfectly clear, this isn't anything to worry too much about, but Albies is our best upper-level position prospect, so it would be nice if he'd start hitting.

He was hitting well there this year before the last 5-game stretch. It obviously has to be counted in just like the rest, but I expect him to get hot again soon.

[msstate7]

Ruiz in last 10 games...
.286 avg (10/35) 2 HRs 2 bb 6 k

Really wish he would force his way up to platoon with Adonis

[bravesfanMatt]

right on cue, Soroka with another homer given up. But still pitching well against a good lineup.

[TheBravos]

It doesn't bother me to see 19 year olds slump a little...they need some adversity to deal with. Even Fried lost two years so he's due to have a bit of a learning curve.

[CJ9]

Touki getting hit around so far this year. The walks have taken a downturn, but he has been getting hit hard.

[msstate7]

Davidson 1-4, hr

Now hitting .200. Baby steps...

[WaitingFor2017]

Rough pitching night at all levels in the organization tonight.
