GDT 6/4/19: Braves @ Pirates

[CyYoung31]

Please bean that piece of ****.

 

[UNCBlue012]

WITH TWO OUTS. Get ya damn easy outs, #MyAce.

 

[Braves1976]

take Fried out he is losing this game.

 

[jpx7]

Marte toying with Fried; Melky just gripping&ripping like typical Melkman.

 

[bravesfanMatt]

Curve. Fastball. Curve. Fastball. Yeah. That ain’t working guys

 

[msstate7]

Nah, I’m sure he’s just silently pouting in AAA.

Class A pouting...
2.0 ip 7 h 5 er 0 bb 3 k
Era at AAA = 7.88

 

[UNCBlue012]

It’s different if this is with Bell, but it’s against a pretty ****ty overall group. This is just bad by Fried, not good by the Pirates.

 

[msstate7]

Starts chanting, "We want Dallas"

 

[salmagundy]

Fried is shaking Flowers off a lot. Guess he only wants to throw breaking balls that are flat and /or hanging.

So far he hasn't shown the ability to get a hitter out with 2 strikes on them.2 hits in Bot 2nd both on 2 strike counts.

 

[CyYoung31]

There’s no reason for Fried to still be in this game. He’s as pathetic as I’ve seen any pitcher tonight.

 

[UNCBlue012]

Gaus, Folty and Fried all struggling hardcore is definitely not ideal. Someone needs to step tf up.

 

[jpx7]

Like to see the Braves **** around and start trying openers and/or piggybacking.

 

[bravesfanMatt]

Anyone swinging and missing

 

[salmagundy]

Anyone swinging and missing

NOT WITH 2 STRIKES ON THEM!!

 

[CyYoung31]

Like to see the Braves **** around and start trying openers and/or piggybacking.

If nothing else, it might drive Joe Simpson into retirement.

 

[jpx7]

Things would be even worse if the homeplate ump weren’t calling strikes an inch off the outside edge. At least it’s consistent, though.

Joe Simpson:

“Last 22 games, so it’s not just a small sample size.”

I’d wager most pitchers are at least a tick better with McCann catching them. He’s the class of his position when it comes to game calling and pitch framing.

 

[CyYoung31]

This HP Ump sucks for both sides. Might be an interesting night.
