Once I see the Braves lineup, I will add it to the OP.

How can any team lose to that lineup? Just don't walk them and they shouldn't score more than 2 runs a game.

 

[NinersSBChamps]

I literally haven't heard of that Dilson and Darrell characters.

Over his last 12 games, #Braves leadoff man Jace Peterson:

346/.424/.519 with 9R, 6RBI and 7 XBH.

He had 4 XBH his first 45 games.

 

[NinersSBChamps]

Oh Lord. thethe has a new crush.

#Braves 1B Freddie Freeman is batting .362 and slugging .776 over his last 15 games with 7 HR, 16 RBI and 13 R.

As long as he doesn't use him as his avatar its ok.

#Braves 1B Freddie Freeman is batting .362 and slugging .776 over his last 15 games with 7 HR, 16 RBI and 13 R.

It started with his half day off in SF. In the 13 games before that he was hitting 200/286/300. In the 13 games since he's hitting 388/456/812

If Freddie continues to make these gradual improvements it really changes what we need moving firward. He is turning into one of the 10 best hitters in baseball.

My guy strikes again.

 

[cajunrevenge]

I love this 1-4 in the lineup.

Peterson hitting #1 - .270/.347/.387
Maybin hitting #2 - .329/.386/.392
Freeman hitting #3 - .322/.394/.528
Markakis hitting #4 - .304/.398/.402

With OBP like that its hard not to score.

 

[Garmel]

My guy strikes again.

He doesn't hit with enough power. /s

 

[UNCBlue012]

I like Folty, but he's so frustrating. I don't know how many guys he gets 0-2, 1-2 and throws a flat FB down in the zone or a breaking pitch. He's not bad, he just doesn't have that one defining K pitch and it's so frustrating.

 

[keithlaw]

He doesn't hit with enough power. /s

Reminds me of another Braves left handed hitting infielder....

 

[UNCBlue012]

Jeez. As I type, Folty does the exact same thing that is so annoying. 0-2 count and he throws a pretty awful breaking ball right over the plate to be hit. 1st and 3rd, no outs.

 

[NinersSBChamps]

Haven't been paying attention. What's the deal with Mike Minor?

 

[UNCBlue012]

Then Beth just drops a freaking ball, runner comes in. Jeez. Step it up, guys.

 

[keithlaw]

Haven't been paying attention. What's the deal with Mike Minor?

He had shoulder surgery. Done for the year at the very least.
