Kyle Wright starting game 1 for Florida at 3 pm.

[bravesfanMatt]

Rome is just clicking right now. And they are such a different team than the beginning of the year. They were built on pitching and speed. Now they still have pitching.. but have some mashers as well.

Lugbauer 1-2, 2b
Hitting .375

Keller 1-1, 2b
First 2 games he now has 3 extra base hits

[CJ9]

Dansby playing second for Gwinnett today.

Dansby playing second for Gwinnett today.

I'm confused now. This a move with camargo staying at SS or Albies maybe moving to SS? Watch us trade Albies this offseason and go with camargo at SS and Swanson at 2b

[nsacpi]

maybe our scouts see something in Sean Kazmar

DANSBY BOMB

DANSBY BOMB

Back-to-back with Ruiz (11)

Sometimes I wonder if they just do things to make the "watchers" like us go crazy!

Actually, I think its funny how we try to dissect every move to extract some meaning from it. This probably has nothing to do with Danby's future.

[msstate7]

Blair with a nice start...
6.0 ip 6 h 2 er 2 bb 6 k


Riley 1-1
Nice to see him staying hot

[thethe]

Touki starting early with the strikeouts.

[thethe]

We need a Toukimania thread.

7ks through 3 today.

[UNCBlue012]

Touki is a big baller

[SJ24]

I love Touki. He's my number 2 prospect in the Braves system. Compares favorably to Chris Archer.

[bravesfanMatt]

Touki getting victimized by very poor defense and horrible score keeping. a grounder off the 1B glove was ruled a hit.. then another grounder under TD's glove was also a hit.. Whatever. TD is so unimpressive.

[bravesfanMatt]

and toukii curve is pretty.. but I wonder about pitch calling. He just gave up a double on a curve just after throwing that curve to fool the hitter. why are you showing your best pitch twice in a row. heat up would have easily K'd that guy.

[bravesfanMatt]

Just like that.. got ahead 1-2.. threw a curve that went low.. how the guy laid off I don't know.. but instead of throwing it again.. he went letter high heat for his 8th K.. I wonder who calls games in minors. I question some of the sequencing..

[SJ24]

Dansby with a line-drive single. Up to .242.

[thethe]

Dansby with a line-drive single. Up to .242.

Keep him in AAA the rest of the year. Needs to reset.
