*OPENING DAY* 4/6/'15: Atlanta Braves (Teheran) @ Miami Marlins

[CrimsonCowboy]

That wet dirt on the first base line when they forgot to close the roof costs the Marlins.

 

[Dalyn]

I thought he died.

AND YOU HAVE A GUY THAT SHREDS THEM ON THE BENCH.

It makes every bit of sense in the world, Fredi.

But then your defense is awful. With the lead I think you have to play it that way. If its a tie-game or losing then I would agree with you. Braves are going to be better this year at run prevention than run scoring.

Basically everyone but Julio/Freeman/Simmons(for now) is on the market in the right deal I think right now.

I'd add Wood to that list, personally.

 

[drewdat]

Sliding headfirst into first is always a losing play.

 

[Dalyn]

I'd add Wood to that list, personally.

I would trade Teheran before Wood.

If that's the way you play it, then fine, but the move would have been more than warranted.

 

[Dalyn]

Sliding headfirst into first is always a losing play.

Especially fifty feet short.

 

[bravesnumberone]

Alright, let's try to squeeze one across.

I'd want to put him in there as well but its hard to ignore EVERYONE talking about how susceptible he is too injury. I have no clue honestly but aside from that he is absolutely in that list.

We also have Gosselin on the bench and last I heard he was pretty solid defensively at second too.

It's been said many times this offseason, but the more Fredi has to manage, the more he's going to be exposed.

[NinersSBChamps]

So Chris Johnson isn't on the team anymore?

Really? Because you guys certainly don't say it enough. I sincerely hope Fredi doesn't manage too well, since we have nothing else to talk about. Over, and over, and over, and over.....

The dump happened yesterday.

 

[Lville21]

It's Kimbrel time, right?

Yea, like that hit-and-run with Markakis and Freeman up, Freeman strikes out chasing a bad one. Which you expect him to get plenty of given no protection, but is it his fault that he struck out since Fredi had that play on?

 

[Garmel]

An awful at bat for Bethancourt.

 

[Julio3000]

So Chris Johnson isn't on the team anymore?

With any luck, he's been traded.
