    Jeremy Walker Called Up

    Parsons sent down.

    Walker would have had to be added to the 40-man this off-season. What stands out with him is the low walk rate this year, and he's usually had a good groundball rate.

    Parson is quad A filler. Never impressed me and glad he isn’t available for twitner to use in the 8th inning of a one run game. Now if someone could tell twit that muck sucks against lefties and to stop using him against them.

    Still amazing to think Snitker used Parsons, who was below Tomlin on the pecking order, in a high leverage situation at all.

    He still had Minter and Newcomb available. An offday Monday and one on Thursday. What the hell type of managing was that.

    That was a bigger deal to me than not hitting for Riley.

    A fresh pen and 2 off days this week, and he uses Parsons in that situation. No words.

    From FG:

    Braves sinkerballer Jeremy Walker has moved to the bullpen and has a 10-to-1 strikeout to walk ratio there.

    We knew the ratio but a effective sinkerballer with this IF could be a real help

    I wish he would have had a shot with parsons going back down. I never seen the guy so he intrigued me.

    Got a DP and a weak fly out. Just from the highlights, he had some solid movement. Saw 93 on what looked like a good sinker
