GDT: 6/22 Orioles @ Braves

[Managuarantano's Volunteers]

Yeah, I think I’m gonna keep saying Brain Snitker

 

[WaitingFor2017]

Ridiculous.

 

[Garmel]

I know I sound like Captain Obvious but Viz picked a bad day to be hurt.

 

[goldfly]

Moylan really needs to be released

 

[Garmel]

Time to DFA Moylan and bring up Phillips.

 

[CyYoung31]

We’re not DFA’ing Moylan. Phantom DL stint sounds about right though.

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

Viz has a sore shoulder. Snitker hopes he’ll be ready tomorrow. Or later today, technically

It’s a ****ing epidemic.

Winkler: "just got a little excited to be in the ninth inning. Been wanting those opportunities for a while now and I think I was just rushing a little bit and everything was up"

 

[Heyward]

Love how everyone blames Moylan/Snit but not the offense until the 7th-9th or Winkler/Freeman blowing the game, typical.

Bad loss though, if Braves miss the playoffs or have to play in the stupid WC game, you can certainly look at this game as to why.

 

[PurpleBrave]

Well at least the nationals got Herrera for a bag of balls.

I wouldn’t mind having Darren Oday, but his contract is likely too much for us

We do need another BP arm, because other than Viz, Minter, Winkler (save last night), and Carle, there isnt much i trust in the pen, but i would like for Biddle to get some more high leverage chances.

Dont have much trust in the Sims, Luke Jacksons, Socovolich, Moylans, Freemans etc.

Hopefully AA can reload the pen this winter with the money the Braves have, there's alot of good arms set to hit free agency.

Calling up Evan Phillips to replace one of the dead weight would be nice, see what the kid can do.

 

[UNCBlue012]

This pen needs to be cleaned up. Moylan and Freeman need to be gone.

I love Dan for owning up and not giving excuses.

It's okay bud, when you get your moment, stuff like this happens more often than not your first go at it. Next time you will do okay, I have faith in you.

AA needs to start fixing the pen sooner rather than later. A couple reliable relievers would be huge.

There's still lots of arms out there, but yeah need another reliable pen arm, because when two of Winkler, Viz, Minter, Carle cant go, we're pretty much ****ed.

 

[Julio3000]

Yeah, I think I’m gonna keep saying Brain Snitker

I like it.

When he was 3B coach several years ago, Ms. 3000 always read his name as "Stinker."

 

[UNCBlue012]

On a good note, Newk continue to impress. Kid is going to be special and a huge piece for us for years.

 

[UNCBlue012]

Oh, and Biddle has been a terrific long-use bullpen arm. Huge performances in extra innings.

Would like to see him get some high leverage innings, maybe he's something, maybe he's not. Never know until he gets a chance.
