GDT #44: 5/20/14 Brewers (Gallardo 2-2) @ Braves (Teheran 2-3), 7:10

[rico43]

Two all-star caliber pitcher who have gotten no run support. Maybe all the Braves needed was some Chinese take-out courtesy of Mr. Wong. Fredi spoke of b.p. level pitching as being what his lineup needed. They got that.

Notable: Teheran 0-2, 2.98 in his career vs. Brewers. Gallardo 4-1, 1.91 vs. Braves in last 5 years.

Gattis (viral infection) late scratch:

Expecting another multi hit game from Pena.

Expecting CJ to hit into another if not two double plays.

Expecting a huge game from the ten-hole.

With all honesty, I am too. haha I think we'll see some good swings, but I see both guys doing work. I hope Julio is better than his last outing.

Expecting CJ to hit into another if not two double plays.

CJ has always been a DP machine in the past outside of last year.

That's why Fredi is smart to put someone with a low OBP in front of him.

I expect the start of a winnng streak in which the braves finally surpass the nats for first place.

 

[Braves1976]

This isn't good news: Braves have scratched Gattis from the line-up. I hope it's something minor and he's back tomorrow and available to pinch hit.

Ugh Gattis better be ok. Good start for Teheran.

Great inning for Julio, good to hear Gattis is just sick.

Gattis will be fine soon! Thank God. Good stuff Teheran!

Didn't that used to be code for "hangover?"
