GDT 8/14/2013: Phillies @ Braves

[JusticeForAll23]

Nice to see a productive out after back-to-back games of back-to-back K's with a runner on 3rd and less than 2 outs.

 

[zitothebrave]

No where near time for that. I still think if we can package him for a TOR starter we should do it. We have a couple of options for right field.

None of them good though.

BOOM

 

[Gary82]

whats with all the infield singles

 

[Braves1976]

I thought he might beat that out, that's what I love about his speed. Nice hustle kid. But now it's up to BJ Upton.

First you offer a contract extention. If he turns it down then you trade him.

Man... that was Utley's ball all the way, but the pitcher still needs to get over there.

 

[Dalyn]

I agree. Rev isn't a guy you want starting but I think he would be a good bench bat who could hit enough if he needed to start for a couple of weeks you wouldn't suffer from having absolutely no production in that spot.

I think Tyler could actually become (somewhat) valuable offensively with experience. .290 .340 .370 with around 20 stolen bases. Not fantastic, but not bad at all.

Like? Gattis in left fill time? No thanks what if Mac doesn't sign?

I agree. Don't get the negative sentiment towards him.

 

[TDlxANDER]

Oh hey look, BJ's back

 

[thethe]

Oh boy...BJ just doesn't have a clue.

 

[AUTiger7222]

BJ just stands there like he has no clue.

 

[zitothebrave]

First you offer a contract extention. If he turns it down then you trade him.

Or you just let him leave via FA and get a high draft pick. We have to try to keep Heyward at all costs. Period. Heyward and Freeman are 2 you build around.

 

[skidlee]

I agree. Don't get the negative sentiment towards him.

because he isn't as good as people think he is

 

[Gary82]

It said BJ took three strikes. Does he have any idea where the strike zone is? Maybe he needs LASIK.

 

[Braves1976]

Terrible AB by BJ again, he just sat there and took them right down the pipe.

You wanna trade Jason Heyward and I'M the idiot? lol...

Vaginal Reconstruction...

 

[Runnin]

Young Bossman disproving the old adage that there's no such thing as a bad BJ.

 

[Dalyn]

because he isn't as good as people think he is

No one thinks he is that good.
