There is basically no reason to look at Gwinnett's box score if allard isn't pitching.

[bravesfanMatt]

What happened to Peterson.

[Tapate50]

Seems like every time Dpete gets hot he hits the DL

[jpx7]

More like Dustin Brittleson.

[CJ9]

Pache exited with a hand injury last night and is out of the lineup today.

[CyYoung31]

More like Dustin Brittleson.

[jpx7]

Have to periodically lower my bar to manage expectations.

[msstate7]

Riley 1-2, 2b

Bryse Wilson’s high school program is tweeting that he has been called up to Double A. https://twitter.com/baseballorange/s...762176512?s=21

Well deserved. Get riley to AAA

[CJ9]

Riley now 2-3 with a double and his sixth homer of the year.

That promotion to AAA incoming sooner and sooner

[msstate7]

Riley now 2-3 with a double and his sixth homer of the year.

Southern league pitchers will pay the bus fare to get riley to Gwinnett

[zbhargrove]

Wilson is gonna be in AAA and possibly the majors by the end of the year. He's the next Soroka.

Not sure about him being in the majors that quick, but you could very well be right. He’s a stud.

[CJ9]

Wonder who takes Wilson’s spot in the Florida rotation. Would seem like Bruce Zimmermann is the logical choice. He’s listed to start tomorrow in Rome, so we should know soon.

[Enscheff]

Riley May be at the point where it will take MLB fastballs to exploit the length of his swing if it’s going to be an issue. AAA pitchers probably won’t test him much since the pure stuff in AA is likely better than AAA.

I agree...AA tends to be where the pure velocity is and he's mashed in that league (another A+-AA promotion I got wrong last year)...he'd probably fair well in AAA at this point since that's where a lot of junkballers are. If his bat speed actually is a problem, with the way things have gone, it appears it's not going to become one in AA.

Not on this topic but shoot, if Bryse performs well in AA, you can throw him in the 5th starter mix for spring next year too. That's why while I'm not dismissing the fact that Fried COULD become a starter, it's going to be tough at this point.

Older, college-pick player excelling against younger competition: he merits somewhat aggressive promotion, through at least AA, if he handles a league like he has Low-A.
