Riley getting that walk rate up
Braves get 2 on, nobody out and score 1. Pirates get 2 out, nobody on and score 4.
The Braves just had a day off. We know they are going to lose today...

Haha... this is true, 1-6
I'm not sure how many times I'll have to explain why certain performances are unsustainable. Folks fooled by Fried's ace level results early in the year set themselves up to be let down as his numbers regressed because they refused to understand why his results were unsustainable. It happens on this board 3-4 times per year, without fail, every time someone has an early hot streak.
Riley will be next...

bravesfanMatt was right.
A third pitch ain't going to do any good for Fried unless he puts it on the same tunnel as the fastball/curve. I don't think it is and teams figured it out and started spitting on the slider, effectively making him a 2 pitch pitcher again and thus, a number three or four starter.
Aggression with prospects is fine, but being stupid is not. There should be a way to find a happy medium between a Pirates like idea of being overly cautious with prospects and going stupidly fast with prospects.
Is it getting time to worry about Kyle Wright? He's stinking again tonight. His era is now 7.39
They really fast-tracked him; hopefully he’s just working on things in AAA.
"For all his tattooings he was on the whole a clean, comely looking cannibal."
Too bad we didn't randomly hit and run on that Acuna double. Come on Dansby! Tie this puppy up
The elusive XBH for Acuna, line drive to RFcorner off the wall
They gonna pitch around our best hitter to get to FF?
I know how Seinfeld felt now... freaking Newman
Good call!!
Thought Swanson might beat that out.
"For all his tattooings he was on the whole a clean, comely looking cannibal."
Nah, I’m sure he’s just silently pouting in AAA.
Ok fried. Everyone knows you throw curve and a fastball. Let’s see some sliders and changes please. Even ****ty ones.
Coppy
I am worried. His stuff didn’t grade out well as I hoped it would, and he didn’t appear to have the control to make up for it.
He needs to improve, and the results in AAA don’t suggest he is.
Melky again...
