Look at Parsons. Is he a real prospect? He has been very good at AA this season and last. Only 25

[UNCBlue012]

Max Fried promoted to Atlanta!

[CJ9]

Max Fried promoted to Atlanta!

Hate this. Just let him start in the minors instead of sitting as the last guy in the bullpen. We already did this with him last year.

[thewupk]

Max Fried promoted to Atlanta!

good lefty pen option

[UNCBlue012]

I'm a Max Fried apologist and I'm just glad he's back.

[Enscheff]

Max Fried emerging as a TOR candidate!

Top of reliever

[msstate7]

No problem with fried coming out of pen. I do wish he would have gotten some relief appearances at Gwinnett first

[Enscheff]

Top of reliever

Is that what he meant?

Newk throws 200IP has a delta of 6 between his k/9 and bb/9

Fried ermergs as a potential TOR canddiate but produces like a MOR for the year

Albies posts a 5-5.7 WAR season

Camargo (assuming starting at third) has a 3 WAR season

Jim Johnson has a bounceback year as a low leverage bullpen arm

[bravesfanMatt]

Dude. Thethe might have been good on these

Newk delta this far 6.6
Fried. Well not yet
Jo-gun. Won’t let him play
Ozzie. Boom
JJ. Looking good out of the closer role.

How many innings is Newk on pace to throw?

[bravesfanMatt]

How many innings is Newk on pace to throw?

Yeah. I thought of that after posting it. A wee bit behind schedule there.

[Enscheff]

It would be hilarious to see Albies post 5.8 WAR, making tehteh wrong even when he was right haha.

[bravesfanMatt]

So Newk would need to average 6.1 innings a start to get to 200. That is assuming 32 starts total.

[Tapate50]

I’ll consider it a W for thethe even if he falls shy of the 200 mark

[50PoundHead]

Nice pitching performances from the Rome Braves today. 9 shutout innings from 4 pitchers. 8 Ks in 4 IP for Rangel, who started. Tarnok's streak without an earned run (he's given up 4 unearned runs) gets to 9 innings. Braves had 3 hits, but one of them was a 2-run home run by Lugbauer in the top of the 9th.

PS--I hear Bermudez shorts will be the fashion craze in Rome this summer.

[thethe]

Long ways to go for all of those predictions but I feel good about all of them.

[thethe]

Fried just needs to be healthy. Dude has all the tools. Glad he is getting a chance to get used to the major leagues out of the pen. He will be in the rotation at some point.

Gonna replace Julio when he's traded?
