GDT 3/30: Pivetta gets Pummeled, Wilson's first start.

[PurpleBrave]

We are a below average team

[VirginiaBrave]

I hope Donaldson is not hurt, but at the same time I don't want him long term. But with AA's quest to build Blue Jays south I expect it.

[msstate7]

That’s the question. The guys a dinosaur.

You don't like squeezing with a AAA pitching staff or double switching one of the best hitters in mlb?

[PurpleBrave]

Ya 25 mil for a guy you double switch for

I mean what MLB manager wouldn’t do that?

Seriously, what other MLB managers would do that and who hires a guy that will?

[salmagundy]

I'd be surprised if O'Day plays this year

IF he does get into games, I don't expect him to be any better than what we've seen from the pen so far. How long has it been since he's been in a real game??? Another wasted 9mil.

[msstate7]

We'll be ok if we get rid of guys like Luke Jackson and Wilson. They shouldn't be on a contending team

not true lol overreaction like hell

I kinda hope he's done for the season. Spend the insurance money on the "K"(CK and DK) pitchers.

[UNCBlue012]

Sign DK and CK and we’re golden. #yolo

[PurpleBrave]

We’ll score, which is good. We’ll need to put up 7 a game with this pitching staff

[CyYoung31]

Please have Tomlin’s things packed and ready to go by the end of this game.

[CyYoung31]

lol

There’s our RF. What a Gold Glover. What a joke that award has become.

The Phillies offense is going to be really good. Imagine that - you spend and make trades and get better. Wow.

[msstate7]

Snit sure pushes the right buttons.

[msstate7]

I expect Donaldson's spot to come up with ender and Swanson on. Won't matter though bc we gave up another run pulling sobotka and JD no longer in there

Call me a fair weather fan. That's fair (even though I attended six games in 1966, saw Niekro's no-hitter, Aaron's 600th, etc.)

But I do not plan on watching this version of the Braves if I can help it. I see a g.m. who is more worried about the bottom line looking good for his bosses. Arrieta will nail down the sweep Sunday night and deGrom figures to pitching in the second game of the Mets series. That's project to no better than a 1-4 start and the sound of boos in their shiny new park.

Meanwhile, it was fun watching Tiger in the match play, March Madness has been entertaining (Go Auburn!) and I have a show or two to binge watch when I am not official scoring for the Chattanooga Lookouts (season begins Thursday). I will try to post minor league pages with links this year as a result.

Should be Joyce here
