    GDT 9/2/23: Braves @ Dodgers - Keep on crushing

    What a difference a weekend makes. Going onto Thursday's game, we had a four game lead for the HFA (really 3 1/2, since the Dodgers led the season series). There were 30 games remaining, but four of them were with the Dodgers. As we sit here today, we have a six game lead (really 6 1/2, since...

    GDT 8/31/23: Braves vs Dodgers - Third times the charm

    Honestly, how much difference do the bigger bases make? Logically, it seems pretty marginal. What I think makes a bigger difference is the two-throwover rule.

    GDT 8/25/23: Braves @ Giants - Keeping our Stride

    Not really, except the runner can advance as soon as the fielder touches the ball--not when the fielder gains possession.

    You mean the Braves' bullpen that allows the fourth lowest walk rate of any bullpen in MLB? That one?

    Confirmed non-reviewable.

    GDT 7/25 vs Red Sox Game 1

    When the wild throw was made to first, the first base ump clearly signaled a catch.

    GDT 7/25 vs Red Sox Game 1

    They tagged the base, which is correct on the appeal, which it clearly was. Pitcher stepped off the rubber and threw to third. Red Sox appealed Riley leaving too soon.

    GDT 7/25 vs Red Sox Game 1

    I'm wondering if it's not reviewable, since when the umpires call it a catch, the runners would (should) have stopped.

    GDT 7/25 vs Red Sox Game 1

    That's the only thing it could be. if it wasn't a catch, there was a force at second and that's it.

    Immaculate Team?

    Both things can be true. Ohtani can be a ToR starter and top power hitter (which he is) and also be the beneficiary of some things that others (John Montgomery Ward, Babe Ruth, Wes Ferrell, Don Newcombe, et al) weren't. Specifically, he has the benefit of a universal DH, which allows him to be a...

    Immaculate Team?

    I keep wrestling with the Ohtani concept. There's the "good" Ohtani. From 2021-though the midpoint of 2023, he has amassed 12.3 bWar as a hitter, and 12.8 bWar as a pitcher. Anyway you add that up, those are all-time numbers, especially since he basically frees up an "extra" roster slot. But...

    GDT: Braves vs Twins 06/27

    But Allard has been on a rehab assignment to Gwinnett. As such, he has to stay up, doesn't he? Or does he have options left?
