GDT: Pirates vs Braves 5/22/17

[Southcack77]

Freese sure would look good at 3B and in the middle of the Braves lineup. Too bad The Genius had to "see what he had" with Adonis for so long.

Too bad he probably preferred signing with a team that was winning than one expected to finish near last. You are so weird about your pet fantasy signings.

Markakis has the 3rd highest OPS of all qualified Braves hitters, behind a guy on the DL, and the guy hitting 4th. Who exactly would you prefer to hit 3rd?

He's 3 for 18 with 6Ks since being plugged into the 3 hole...that's not who he is...RBI situations need to find him...he doesn't need to be set up for them...chokes majority of the time.

Man, it would be really nice to have Sean Rodriguez on the team. On that note, the bench is going to be really nice with him, Adams and Peterson in the near future.

When can we expect Rodriquez?

[Garmel]

The BABIP gods love Flowers.

I thought he was missing the entire season.

Bummer

Yeah the Braves should've listened to Enscheff and signed Jason Castro. He's killing it in Minnesota. Sadly we ended up with the Suzuki/Flowers platoon.

You realize he gets way more RBI chances hitting 5th behind Freeman and Kemp than he does 3rd with Ender and Phillps ahead of him, right? The obvious answer is that Nick is just an average hitter who is currently in a cold streak.

[Ozzie Swanson]

Dansby has got to get that throw to first base.

[thewupk]

more sloppy play

Yea good point.

LOL, best "unclutch" post I've read in months! Bravo!

Swanson gonna get that run back with leadoff double

[Enscheff]

Swanson is on pace for 40+ errors. I didn't think that was remotely possible based on everything that was said about him.

Is that bad?

He's framing the **** out of some pitches tho.

[thewupk]

Is that bad?

It's like negative 20 WAR

[jsebe10]

Dansby hit the sh*t out of that.

Yeah, I'm sure by the end of the year we will be glad the Braves had Suzuki platooning with Flowers instead of Castro. Genius!
