5/6 GDT: orioles game 2

[msstate7]

I would think the pitchers are gonna tell snit soon they want no part of Grissom out there

 

[mfree80]

Are the booth guys openly cheering for the O’s?

 

[msstate7]

I prefer to never see Grissom again

 

[Hudson2]

Murphy is a damn beast behind the plate

 

[bravesfanforlife88]

With Grissom and Shew both up the Braves need to commit to one until Arcia is back

Thank God albies covered. Grissom woulda blew it

 

[UNCBlue012]

That said, the Braves getting stomped by the below-.800 OPS mid-as-hell trio of Mountcastle, Santander and Frazier is a decision. You’ve got to pitch them better.

The braves can win without some offense. The braves will have a harder time winning with a HS level SS

 

[USMA76]

Feel like the bounces are really going the Orioles' way this series.

No doubt but at this point I've seen nothing to indicate that the Orioles aren't a better team than we are at this point.

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

I like Vaughn, but the defense is a concern

 

[Garmel]

That's an understatement.

Shew all the way. Need a dude who can actually play ss

 

[Hudson2]

Thank God albies covered. Grissom woulda blew it

We definitely agree on that.

 

[Hulavol]

If we lose - because of Grissom again- that’d make three games I can directly point to.
I’d rather have Shew and his black hole in the batting order any day. THREE GAMES and lord only knows how many additional unnecessary pitches.

 

[Hudson2]

I see why Grissom didn’t make the team out of ST after hitting .400.

 

[msstate7]

I like Vaughn, but the defense is a concern

And he plays a premium defensive position. I don't want the braves to be the Phillies.

Yeah, 9 of 10 nights the offense is good enough to have a black hole at the bottom of the lineup. The pitchers can’t deal with a guy who can’t handle a basic hop

I agree totally. But the Braves have said they will use both until Arcia returns. That is a poor allocation of resources. Grissom can obviously not handle major league shortstop. He should be in Gwinnett.

 

[msstate7]

I think the pitchers are gonna let it be known soon they don't want Grissom out there

They shouldn’t have to. Everyday fans can see 5 or 6 errors in a few weeks and say that is ****ty defense
