GDT 6/9/24: Braves @ Nationals - Waldrep makes his debut

[bravesnumberone]

I don't know maybe the Braves should stop drafting college pitchers and get more players who can actually hit.

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

Maybe. This is the 26th ranked offense in mlb

Well, I'm not giving up on him after one tough inning

After they saw him 1 time, he was done. That's concerning, along with only 1 k.

 

[bravesnumberone]

Waldrep will likely be fine, but shouldn't be counted on to be a Cy Young contender right away. That inning should have been over way before it got to 7-2. Yet again an easy ground ball to an infielder who wasn't there extended the inning further.

 

[WaitingFor2017]

Martinez pulling his kid before getting into too much trouble -- what a novelty. He didn't leave in him to try to get that elusive "W".

 

[bravesnumberone]

Now Ozuna decides to leave the bat on his shoulder with two strikes. This team is lost.

There were also three first pitch outs and at least one or two others that went only a couple pitches. Not going to get a lot of strikeouts on at bats that are less than three pitches.

 

[msstate7]

PH right now

 

[bravesnumberone]

Well you can forget about scoring here.

 

[WaitingFor2017]

Duvall against a righty in a big situation -- let's see how this plays out.

4 bb, so they took pitches too

Walk or hbp

 

[DaneHill]

Meh, this team is utterly unwatchable anymore. I'm switching over to Titanic to feel better.

P.S. This team has got to be, like, historically bad with bases loaded.

 

[bravesnumberone]

Is Forrest Wall not hitting down in AAA?

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

One walk the first time through the order. The others came in the rough inning when the Gnats adjusted. First three innings, he looked good. He'll have to learn how to counter those adjustments. Once he does that, he can really tap into his potential

 

[bravesnumberone]

-28 wRC+ vs. RHP.

Snit doesn't even check this stuff. AA extended snit. We are a dumb organization

Who was he going to hit there? Martinez is ****. Guillorme is gone. Wall is missing. Laureano isn't there. It's not worth burning Murphy who isn't setting the world on fire either. Short sucks.

 

[bravesnumberone]

I hope these sons of bitches lose 22-2. Maybe rock bottom will finally wake this team up.

Yes, Martinez. The nats aren't using any lh relievers. Duvall's day is over as soon as they pulled the lh starter. Martinez isn't good, but he isn't -28 wrc+ bad - that's freaking me hitting mlb pitching bad
