GDT: Cards @ Braves 5/15

[striker42]

Biddle is a classic example of the volatility of relievers. A guy can be solid one year and absolutely lose it the next. It's why you should always try to stock more relievers than you think you'll need during the offseason. Injury and ineffectiveness bite hard.

The excitement Riley is up is going to be a fantastic thread.

I haven't been this excited for an American baseball fixture since the playoffs.

The baby Braves are going to grow up before our eyes and deliver Atlanta a championship.

What international baseball fixtures excited you recently

Well, Taylor certainly knows athletes, so I’m sure he’s done some scouting on the international front.

 

[Carp]

I expect him to homer in his 3rd AB.

He is a slow starter they say.

 

[BeanieAntics]

I'm predicting that Soroka goes 7, strikes out 9, with one unearned run given up and 1 BB.

Austin Riley will go 2 for 3 with one walk, one strikeout, a homer, and a single. The homer will come in the 5th inning inning to left center field on a 2-1 fastball.

 

[CyYoung31]

Austin Riley can’t even post a batting average. He sucks.

 

[BeanieAntics]

Dansby is the most unlucky hitter in the history of mankind.

 

[BeanieAntics]

I'm praying for a Markakis walk so Riley can hit a GS in his first at bat lol

fail

 

[The Tariff King]

Wacha has a pretty good sinker.

 

[bravesfanMatt]

I am just so happy that Acuna hits better in the lead off spot.

P.s. I love Soroka.

smh. Not even trying

 

[bravesfanMatt]

What a waste having Riley hit with the bases empty

 

[thewupk]

What a waste having Riley hit with the base is empty

might as well bat him leadoff

 

[CyYoung31]

Three fly ball outs in that inning is a little worrisome. Hopefully it’s just an aberration.

 

[Hudson2]

That strike one call to Riley was garbage

 

[UNCBlue012]

Trade this bust

 

[thewupk]

100% strikeout rate
