GDT: 5/01/2018 Braves @ Mets (Rise of Soroka)

[bravesfanMatt]

I prefer Ender hitting 7th, but I will take him hitting 9th over 1st any day.

this!!

[jpx7]

Soroka really knows how to hit the mitt.

I love when you self-parody. Keeps my post-count down.

[chop2chip]

I’d been waiting for the right moment to exhume the spectre of Reitsma.

Whither, as ever, grooveone?

Ken Ray to Chris Reitsma to Dan Kolb

Six inning game.

[Enscheff]

I’m not really for or against him hitting 6-9.

I was poking fun at tehteh seeing Soroka hit with runners on base instead of Ender, and still call it a great thing.

He loves it because it’s something the Braves did with no additional thought put into it. It’s really that simple.

[CyYoung31]

Just got in.


SOROKA THROWS 96!!!!

[Julio3000]

Wow

[thethe]

You cant send this kid down.

I don't care who gets booted from the rotation...except my boy Newk.

[msstate7]

Yeah, I don't see this kid not starting vs Giants this weekend

Lol it certainly is classic the^2

Guys I know we haven't had one for a while so it is hard for some people to tell, but this is what an ace looks like.

I wouldn’t say Ace just yet becaue we are 3 innings in to his first start, but what he does what we aren’t used to seeing...he pounds the strike zone and pitches to contact.

I will add that Ron Darling and the rest of the Mets broadcast are drooling over this kid. Very high praises.

[Braves1976]

Soroka is going to be our ace. All the grounders he gets will help in our ballpark too.

They let you through the body-scanner with that?

[msstate7]

Enscheff and SJ, will he run with FF hitting?

[GeorgiaGirl]

There's what I say you always get with the games that you play with swinging for it all. You'll get balls that fly out, and you'll also get ugly, weak contact.

Nice, Acuna.

Had a manual patdown
It's like steel

[chop2chip]

90 grade

[Russ2dollas]

At this point I think the odds are pretty decent Joey gets released outright.

Aa was on bbtn podcast and very positive on joey bats

No way he’s released imo. My only hope for release is a moose trade

[thethe]

First to third

Get used to hearing that a lot the next 7 years.

[chop2chip]

Syndergaard is off today.
