GDT: 8-4-13 Braves at Phillies (Brooms Ready)

Also here is how big the Braves lead is, the Nationals can sweep this three-game series and still be 9 and a half games out of first place. On the other hand, if the Braves take two out of three, their lead will be 13 and a half.

If the Braves lose 2 out of 3, the lead is only 12.5 :icwudt:
 
Ask Tommy Hanson. Going from point a to point b with all the effort he uses isn't good long term.

Cheese and chalk. Hanson whipped his arm and used about 65% of the possible rotation of the shoulder. Lots of torque. He was a biomechanical nightmare. It was a matter of time.

Wood is open at release because his stride is six inches right of center. I don't like it because it's not as efficient as it could be, but a lot of pitchers (especially Dominicans) do it, just without the shoulder roll. Mario Soto comes to mind. It won't kill him quickly, and it's got to be hard to pick up the ball. I think he's going to be okay.
 
It won't kill him quickly, but he's also inducing a lot of stress on his knee.

And like you said the shoulder roll could be a recurring problem.

The actual throw itself during the delivery is pretty mechanically sound.

You never know (Hey, Joaquin Andujar was open like that, too!). He could have a nice long career, he could need TJ again. I agree with your conclusion, though. Woody doesn't scare me like Hanson did.

Does Fredi call him Woody?
 
Heeeey guys! MarteFuture here from the "other" board. Was wondering where everyone went... So glad to catch back up! Finally I can also have a username without the embarassment of Marte's name, lol. So glad there's a new Braves place with all the entertaining posters. I will chime in about the weather during possible rainouts like always if necessary!

Although according to Zito, Hanson had nearly flawless mechanics with tons of leg power... despite the fact he had one of the most violent shoulder whips on the follow through I've ever seen.

I'm glad you saw my (GenericBravesFan) post.

For the record, I thought Marte was gonna pan out, ah well.
 
I do appreciate that! I thought something crazy was going on. Scout forums have gotten terrible in almost every sport. Glad I found you guys again. Missed a lot of folks here... Even zito!

Would have been so much easier if you just had your PM's activated... lol

If you're interested in what was going on, visit three threads:

Technical Support Forum >> New Site (scroll down)
Wild Wild Joe West Forum >> Extracting the Innocent thread.
Wild Wild Joe West Forum >> Wasn't Aware... (first 1-3 pages are intense, then weso kills it on page 8).
 
Lol... Honestly didn't know my PMs were inactive over there... Good to know everything's settled now, tho!

Yeah. The only big name we're missing here is MikeAdams...

Well when you realized that sheit was going down the drain there, did it not prompt you to maybe PM any names from the user list? I'm sure you still can see weso, meta, zito's name there because we're all constantly lurking there waiting to PM people or capitalize on when Patio goes to get drunk.
