[Enscheff]

Albies is hitting waaaaay too many fly balls in the early portion of his MLB career.

 

[Garmel]

Why do you rest Inciarte when you're playing in a big ballpark?

Albies is hitting waaaaay too many fly balls in the early portion of his MLB career.

Why does that matter? Isn't this the age of the Josh Donaldson flyball or nothing mindset?

#SnitHappens

You can't rest him against a ****ty team like the Reds?

Someone needs to learn a little more about the fly ball revolution if they think Albies should be hitting 50% fly balls.

 

[WaitingFor2017]

Hope those staying up for this entire game enjoy watching this until 1 am.

 

[Ozzie Swanson]

Man, Phillips has been fantastic at 3B.

 

[Hawk]

Was not expecting BP to be remotely serviceable at 3B. Glad he's proving me wrong.

 

[thethe]

Dansby!!

 

[Enscheff]

Extend Swanson

 

[GovClintonTyree]

As I've always said, Swanson is going to be a star.

Ok, I've never said that. But nice job, Lieutenant Dans.

 

[bravesfanMatt]

Way to go camargo.

 

[jpack1]

The ball does jump off Dansby's bat. He's hit a lot of line drives since he came back.

 

[GovClintonTyree]

Four strikes in that Parra at bat per Gameday.

 

[Enscheff]

That was not a bad walk by Newk.

 

[jpack1]

Newk' zone was tiny that inning.

 

[GovClintonTyree]

Albies is hitting waaaaay too many fly balls in the early portion of his MLB career.

Average launch angle 19°. More than Freeman. More than everybody.

 

[GovClintonTyree]

Newk' zone was tiny that inning.

If Lucroy hadn't helped him out, that could've been a long inning.

And yeah, he's getting squeezed. Bigly.

 

[Garmel]

Good movement on the change.
