GDT 8/21 vs Astros Game 3

[chop2chip]

It might be a good thing if Ronnie just gets destroyed stealing bases so the Braves can sit him down and get him to change his baserunning approach. He’s still fast but he doesn’t have the same burst he had when he first came up. It’s evident stealing bases and when he’s playing defense.

The worst part of that caught stealing is we had a guy up nicknamed doubles. Acuna scores on almost any double

Exactly. Running in front of Dansby makes a lot of sense. Running in front of Riley and Olson does not.

Mets have cut it to 4-3.

 

[msstate7]

Come on matt

Hopefully Matt finishes the season at .850 ops

Urquidy’s head doesn’t fit his fckn body. He’s a weird looking dude

 

[msstate7]

Man, that was awful

Someone needs to teach Harris how to recognize breaking balls.

Outside of Olson bomb, it's right back to the day game offense BS.

Yea he’s had two pretty pathetic ABs today. This weird looking MFer was actually a good matchup for him today I thought.

How many times has Harris swung at strike 3 on breaking balls low in the dirt in the past week?

Mets and Astros pitching, so I'll give a rookie a little pass, for now. Grissom hitting these 2 staffs so well is quite impressive

My question is why do we have Travis hitting in the middle of our lineup. He is an 8th or 9th place hitter now.

Because we have Ozuna and left-handed Grossman in the lineup.

That breaking ball to Alvarez for the K was a work of art.

He honestly shouldn’t even be in lineup…but since Contreras caught last night.

Travis is a damn good player. 2.2 fWAR and 111 wrc+

TDA hate on this board is beyond irrational.
