GDT #23, 4/26/'14: Reds (Leake) vs. Braves (Hale)

[stpeteirish]

Looks like UNC's predicted lineup was spot on.

I'd really like to see Fredi get Pastornicky a start or two. If he's just going to be here to pinch hit against a lefty once every two weeks and pinch run for Gattis in the late innings he should really be back in Gwinnett getting regular at-bats.

somebody's got to be the 25th man, might as well be Pastornicky. He won't be in this role all year, if he is its a problem. But for a month or two its OK.

I want to see Hamilton challenge Simmons tonight. Hopefully he can hit a grounder somewhere near short.

 

[NinersSBChamps]

I want to see an Uggla-baseball challenge. Hopefully someone hits a grounder near second base.

 

[bravesnumberone]

Awesome unis.

Pants off.

Ready set go.

 

[NinersSBChamps]

Can't wait until Hale doesn't pitch for us anymore.

 

[Mrs. Meta]

My first real Braves game of the year with Mlb TV and I get to see Hale pitch?

Sheeeeeeeeeeit.

Howdy, y'all!

 

[bravesnumberone]

Growing pains. Gotta learn to put teams away with 2 outs.

Let him learn at AAA. Now where games actually count.

So Beej has a higher average than Jason so far? Daaaaaaaaaayum.

 

[bravesnumberone]

Congrats BJ

Everyone has a higher average than him.

 

[Enscheff]

Heyward is about 6" closer to the plate lately, and is hitting better. Coincidence?

 

[Mrs. Meta]

BJ with a rocket to center to tie it up for his 1,000th hit!

 

[Mrs. Meta]

Everyone has a higher average than him.

He probably just doesn't want us to have to pay him too much money - gotta love the kid.
