    GDT 5/11 Mama Tried Edition: Sale and Drake and win one for Cy’s Mom

    Yep. A pulse check is unnecessary. There is none. The look of utter dejection on some of them.

    Yeah 50. Sigh. His command makes Mauricio Cabrera look like he had pinpoint control. In all seriousness, there are further moves coming to the staffs but I have no idea who. There has been progress for some pitchers even if the results don't look good. In Lara's case...the eye tests match the...

    "Sits" at about 93 or so..but it's the secondary pitches that are swing and miss to me. Unlike Waldrep, he can get to his. It makes his FB look faster for sure.

    Caminiti pitched in the FCL today. 2.1 innings...3 hits..2 ERS...3 K'S, 1 BB. Also, Sinnard has a write up on him. I mentioned him a couple of weeks back.

    The Braves could use a shift in thought on some of the pitchers in the system. 1-2 times through the order types are all over the place. Some could definitely move quick too. I'm in between on Dodd, but I'm encouraged by smaller bite size innings from him.

    GDT 5/8/77 Beat the Reds to Schwell en Bach.

    I don't know. Plenty of holes in the lucky rotation or in hindsight, Baldwin is the type of prospect that keeps you from playing AAAA prospects/players. IF you trade him, you have your mind on a stronger mlb team. Just not there with AA.....YET.

    Hey 50. I got to the first game and saw Mateo, Perdomo, Benitez and Roiber Niazoa (he went hitless, but I loved his approach). Perdomo is fun to watch and I didn't really think he did much to prove or disprove anything. It's so early for all of them. Mateo - He played 3B in the game and...

    Sorry. That's our international guy, Raudy Reyes. He's pitching in the complex. Only pitch I saw is on video and it wasn't his 101 mph heater. It was a slider...way out of the zone but wicked kinda.

    He's defintely one to watch. Swing plane as it is doesn't look like it's geared to power. But as Carp said..he's so young. Love his speed. Coming on for sure. As a side note, the international guys are still showing glimpses. However small, I see why a scout would dream on them. Recently saw...

    Good lord not literally. The HYPE surrounding him in scouting circles. As I follow prospects rather extensively, you hear things at the minor league parks. Kelenic had next superstar adjectives next to him since coming out of Waukesha. Labeled the best prospect in 50 years. So yes...it's...

    Perhaps. My top 5 are Caminiti, Ritchie, Fuentes, Murphy, Braun. Others are higher on Hackenburg...as a whole I think the pitching is OK. It should be considering the Braves use a lot of resources on pitching. But I'm just not there to the point of excitement yet. Long season...some will...

    You're not wrong State. The theme for this farm system should be INCONSISTENT EXCELLENCE. You're hard pressed to find stand out players right now. That said, I've seen glimpses of a few players: EJ Exposito - career.230 hitter but had made strides with his swing. Dice throw to me. Ethan...

    Yeah, thanks 50. I think I wrote about him last year for a little snippet. Like you, i was puzzled as to why he accepted a non-drafted contract. But this may be recollection, he was scouted as most kids are during showcases. He was also one of the ones who missed out during covid so it was a...
