6/15/15: GDT - Atlanta Braves @ Boston Red Sox

By how many runs do the Braves have to lead this year in order to feel comfortable? For me, that number is nine.

If Miller's pitching, that number goes down to about three.

Usually 9, but with Baby Harang 1.

 

[Braves1976]

Alex White started tonight for Gwinnett and pitched 5 scoreless innings. I wonder if the Braves are considering him to replace Folty if he keeps struggling. Marty Reed said not long ago that Wisler likely needs to stay in AAA the full year (said that was his opinion anyway). Plus Man-Ban is a on pitch count limit so might be Braves stretching out White just in case.

Based on recent games you should just stick with 9 across the board.

Is it just me, or does the Kung Foo Fat Ass look fatter than normal in his San Fran days? That is such a ****ty contract.

 

[NinersSBChamps]

First time I've seen this kid pitch. Isn't overly impressive, but could definitely be a backend starter. Keep him around.

 

[Millwood1Hitter]

Can Perez save his own game?

 

[USMA76]

Perez the Hut looking decent so far.

 

[Braves1976]

Great change-up there for that second out and strikeout.

 

[nsacpi]

What a changeup

 

[Julio3000]

The Williams make pitch.

Most definitely.

Have a game Willy P. Guy looks useful out there. Plural William follows that up with a 4 pitch walk.

Wisler needs to stay in AAA. He has to find a way to get out left handed batters.

 

[USMA76]

Great--six straight balls with an umpire who's shown a pretty generous strike zone.

 

[Braves1976]

Perez may tire early due to saving the game the other day. So I'd watch for that and pull him if so.

 

[Garmel]

Perez is getting wild again.

 

[USMA76]

Perez is getting wild again.

Yep. He better get "unwild" or we're looking at another blown lead.

 

[Braves1976]

Nice recovery by Perez, good change-up to get out of it.

Carey said sinker but that was a change-up.

 

[Garmel]

Whew!

 

[nsacpi]

There's no need to fear Baby Harang is here

 

[NinersSBChamps]

I like this kid. Why are people saying he will fizzle out?
