4/28/15 MLB GDT Braves/Nats: Teheran on the bump(Julio Pic)/Some lineup consistency!

[Heyward]

Probably wont keep it up but AJ has been a big surprise this year at the plate.

Even if he's a dick.

Flores is starting to look like a big league hitter (he's probably going have to move up SS at some point). Duda is a decent second-tier player and Campbell looks like he can play some. Lagares is our version of Simmons (whatever you get offensively is a bonus). Murphy can hit (isn't hitting now). It's an interesting line-up that can hurt you several ways, but admittedly could go really cold for an extended streak.

Their two top hitting prospects, well three if you include Plaweki are all really close and ready to hit at the major league level.

Still not against signing Wieters this winter.

Lifetime contract for Anthony J.

Freeman has produced this year but I feel he hasn't really been all that great. If he can get going like we all know he can then maybe the Braves have a shot at playing 500 baseball.

He's been good all year! He leads baseball in hard hit outs. If he had even average luck his average would be well over .300. He's been by far the most unlucky hitter in baseball.

He can (and will) be better.

IF Simmons can keep it up, or show significant improvement from last year (shouldn't be too hard)

IF we can keep getting timely production from KJ, Gomes, AJ

IF Jace can hit a little better

and

IF Julio can turn it around along with Wood,

We can play better than .500 ball.

This inning isn't on Julio. Defense has let him down this inning.

 

[Garmel]

I take back what I wrote above.

 

[CyYoung31]

Christ, our rotation has been a huge disappointment.

 

[50PoundHead]

Teheran is trying to live outside too much. That had "hit me" all over it.

 

[Braves1976]

I take back what I wrote above.

I take back my thanks, lol.

 

[Heyward]

Julio has nothing tonight, only the Braves could not cruise to victory with a 10-2 lead.

 

[Dalyn]

Pure **** from Teheran. Put his ass on the DL.

This is the year to win. Got to play through the pain.

 

[50PoundHead]

Nice to see Uggla's still able to dive and not get the ball with the best of them.

 

[Dalyn]

14 1/3 innings from injured Teheran. 15 runs.

An embarrassment that the powers who care so much about the future they were willing to punt a year or two don't see that he isn't right.

 

[Dalyn]

I wish Markakis was about 24.

It boggles the mind.

He's playing like it. Excellent signing and I believe he will still be productive in year 4.
