Good job Coppy for caving in on that 4th year, so Neck can redeem the first three years

 

[msstate7]

Must have hit that on end of bat. Just died

Markakis

The Greek classics tend to age well.

 

[bravesfanMatt]

lets work some counts guys.. knock Thor out in 5..

 

[msstate7]

Dansby almost neutered

 

[chop2chip]

Flaherty is due for a dropped pop up by the left fielder.

he needs the BABIP gods

 

[bravesfanforlife88]

love this new lineup configuration....if we can get Camargo in for RF in the same spot in the lineup, it would be so much deeper

 

[msstate7]

RF with a good night. Atta boy

 

[sturg33]

Would be nice to have Ender batting 8th here

 

[Enscheff]

Nice - Now we have Inciarte leading off the next inning. Love having him hit 9th

Soroka has now batted twice with runners on instead of Ender. Still love it?

 

[chop2chip]

The best part about Soroka is he’s immune to Chuck Hernandez’s tutelage considering his mentor was Chris “and the count is 3-1” Reitsma

 

[msstate7]

Bautista 0-1, bb, error

5 LOB

Part of the reason to not have Pitcher 8th, Ender would have been up with runners on, instead it's Soroka.

But i get it flips the lineup.

 

[chop2chip]

Bautista 0-1, bb, error

At this point I think the odds are pretty decent Joey gets released outright.

I’d been waiting for the right moment to exhume the spectre of Reitsma.

Whither, as ever, grooveone?

I prefer Ender hitting 7th, but I will take him hitting 9th over 1st any day.

 

[thethe]

Soroka really knows how to hit the mitt.

 

[GeorgiaGirl]

I don't blame y'all for wanting a 9 hole hitting pitcher...but Ender 8th ain't ideal.
