GDT 5/3 - Weird Lineup Today

BTW, I would still trade Markakis if someone shows interest and use the money to improve the bullpen, etc. Markakis was hitting .319 as late as May 16th last year too and hit .310 the first month. While he may do better this year in a contract year, I expect his numbers to come back closer to his norm by season's end. So I'd trade him if someone would take that contract. Then you have more money to take on in a trade to improve the pen, etc.

But he’s flashing way more power so far. He obviously won’t continue to OPS .900+, but there’s reason to believe his work won’t be entirely one dimensional like it has been in years past.

extension?

need to lock up Neck, Flarrety, and Tucker first though

I would extent neck if we aren't players for harper. I think his contributions on the filed and in the clubhouse have proven to be vital and more so than people want to give him credit for.

I get people don't want to be wrong but a large potion of the board was dead wrong on neck.
 
After stomping the Mutts twice in a row, the Braves are tied for second with the Red Sox in run differential at +57. We're 1 run behind the Astros.

my issue with thethe is he says so many things as facts

"Mcarthy will be traded and Fried will be TOR by June"

just throwing in an IMO goes a long way

Yeah - As if the attacks would stop if I simply added 'IMO'.

But I don't even care. I've dealt with this forever now on these boards. People that let words get to them aren't long for this world.

i was always taught not to say things like "i think" or "i believe" when writing because the fact that it's my belief/opinion is simply implied.
*i think* the implication of opinion should be there, and if it's not, the reader is looking for something to be upset about.
*this is my opinion*

He did today. Success is contagious.

Agreed - There was a moment in time when Teheran was a solid #2 guy. I can't wait to see if he gets that velocity back into the 91-93 range when the weather gets warmer.

To make it even more impressive, we've played fewer games than the Red Sox.

To make it even more more impressive is that we have had a pitcher hitting every night and guys like peter, Dansby clone, and Perez in our lineup.

Yeah I know both teams have pitchers so it shouldn’t mean much for differential.
