GDT 6/12/19: Let’s make it 6 in a row

[UNCBlue012]

Worst Soroka has looked all year.

Hope his shoulder is ok.

I’m not watching. Any reason for you to say this? Velocity drop or anything?

 

[The Tariff King]

Silver Soroka

 

[UNCBlue012]

Mike!

 

[Braves1976]

Soroka says if i give up runs i will get them back on offense!

 

[GeorgiaGirl]

That's not to say there hasn't been bad pitching at times, but really for all the games against the Pirates, there's been a whole lot of them hitting it where it's pitched and the Braves not used to it because of most other teams being teams that try to lift and elevate.

And there's also this, with Mike being better at pitching low in the zone:

I don’t think anything is wrong. He might be slightly off relatively speaking but it’s mostly balls finding holes. He’s not getting hit hard.

 

[TheBravos]

He is not going to be on every game and teams will learn new ways to attack him and he will adjust.

Oh yeah....and he is a rookie and “should” struggle some at some point???

 

[The Tariff King]

Mike is FINNISH

Dang. I was hoping he was going to be mid 90s Mad Dog all year.

Command is dreadful. Leaving everything up and over the plate.

It’s crazy how well he’s done. The equivalent of Riley hitting a dinger every other game for a while. You know it has to end lol.

 

[TheBravos]

No Newk or probably Touki tonight....this might be a 12-9 type game.

 

[The Tariff King]

mike is FINNISH

 

[Enscheff]

Great, now Soroka is dumb too

 

[UNCBlue012]

Dammit. Really thought Mike would get this dude. Newman has absolutely killed us.

 

[Hulavol]

Newk spota start this weekend. He ain’t pitching until.

 

[TheBravos]

Strap in boys....we better keep hitting. Phils are down...we could take 1st outright tonight. It’s gonna be one of those games.

 

[Heyward]

Luke hasnt pitched since Sunday, might need him to go 2 innings.

But gonna need more runs, Soroka is off tonight, he was due one of these games though.

Yeah our bullpen will spot them three or four more...

 

[UNCBlue012]

Damn, Soroka. He’s getting crushed out there. Doesn’t matter how terrible these hitters are.
