GDT 8/20 DALLAS BRINGS THE FISH SMOKER

[msstate7]

Getting Swanson and Ender and Markakis back in time for them to get 20+ PAs at the MLB level in September would be huge.

Surely if an assignment starts for Swanson this week, he'd get more than 20

People wanted those guys rested...well... there you go!

I’m more worried about players like Donaldson who are old and have an injury history. Freddie too because he’s had like 1 day off in the past two years and is about to be 30.

Now its a race against the calendar to get them enough ABs to be sharp for the playoffs. Looks like it should be no problem with Swanson but we are going to be cutting it close with Muk and Ender.

Freddie smokes the Fish tonight with Ash.

Perhaps, but it took him a long time already to recover from a bruised heel.

 

[drewdat]

Marlins pitcher has pronounced splits, should be a good opportunity since we loaded up.

I guess yesterday makes up for the previous 110 consecutive games.

They can rest when they are dead

Don’t they get like a few months off after the WS too?

Hell they work less than teachers

 

[salmagundy]

And don't forget scheduled days off. The Braves have had 3 days off since AS break. Of the 126 played this year, Freddie has started 124 and appeared as PH in one of the ones he didn't start. Yes, that's a lot of games started and played, but not as bad as some are making it out to be.

 

[USMA76]

At the risk of ruining the party, don't we have a miserable record in games after a day off this year?

Dallas looked great there

 

[salmagundy]

Why did Porter(Plate Ump) meet Keuchel half way between the plate and mound after inning was over??

Think there was a borderline pitch to Anderson DK wanted to know about why it was called a ball

 

[Enscheff]

Dallas looked great there

Pitchers who give up a lot of contact look great when that contact is caught by fielders...not so great when it doesn't.

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

What the????????

 

[USMA76]

Marlins are a chicken**** team.
