last 50 games have...

 

[sturg33]

OK J-Hey

 

[USMA76]

While we're changing the lineup (yeah, right) is there any reason Heyward isn't playing CF?

 

[stpeteirish]

It just amazes me that Fredi keeps running the same lineup out there.

all five bench players hitting .200 or below. Wren built this team, and they've overestimated what most the the core 8 guys can do. What the hell can Fredi do with this roster? Play Doumit in LF and Schafer in CF? That doesn't help a bit.

 

[sturg33]

BJ should play - but should be batting 8th. He is our worst hitter, but is still better than Schafer

 

[jsebe10]

Almost 80 pitches in the 4th...dude go back to the DL

 

[CyYoung31]

BJ should play - but should be batting 8th. He is our worst hitter, but is still better than Schafer

According to Bowman, the Braves are toying with the idea of bringing Bethancourt up and putting Gattis in left.

Not sure how I feel about that.

He is a liability at the plate and in the outfield. He is a good base runner, but I would take Schafer over him in that aspect.

Wellll this game is a bit of a clown show.

It's even worse that we have to listen to ESPN just literally blow on the Angels and Trout. I can literally hear Trout's cock hitting their tonsils.

board loves to trash harang, but he's been better than Minor this year.

Honestly dude....fckn do it...this OF/catching/team needs a spark. Move the Kid to CF, Fat Upton to RF, and toss Evan out there. Maybe he will get to play more than 3 days in a row out there.

Minor is a clown. He's put this team and bullpen in sooo many tight spots this year.

I presume they're moving JUp and Heyward around and benching BJ with this. I vote yes, and I know Gattis is terrible in LF. BJ's gotta hit the bench somehow.

You can't yo yo Gattis back and forth tho, leave him at one position.

I'd consider that. Get another guy in the lineup who doesn't strikeout and slightly improve your defense in total.

at least we didn't extend him

 

[tomahawkchop10]

Minor and the shaky D has been frustrating, but it doesn't compare to getting shut down by this bum.

 

[thethe]

I miss Medlen.

 

[tvsportscaster]

Yeah, I don't mind the Bethancourt move. This team has to do something to spark it offensively, another embarrassing performance tonight against a winless pitcher. It's becoming an epidemic.

Kruk is the worst. Can't stand that guy.
