4/7 DH Game 1

[UNCBlue012]

This is unreal. Zimmerman and Castro are both terrible. Fried needs to get his **** together.

 

[jpx7]

Fried looks poopy today.

 

[CrazyTrain]

The Nats are being patient and not swinging at Max's "stuff". I honestly don't know why more teams don't do that...

We can't get Soroka back fast enough.

 

[Russ2dollas]

Not watching the game b/c of MLB's horrible black out rules.

On the gametracker it looks like the issue is location. Every ball that has been hit seems to be center cut. Maybe that's not the case, but it looks like location not stuff is the issue.

 

[Russ2dollas]

Braves never seem to beat up on the mop up guy.

Sometimes we'll beat up on the stud starter and them not touch the soft tossing mop up guy who goes for 3-4 innings.

Looks like we may need double digits to win this one.

What a garbage performance by fried

 

[Russ2dollas]

Damn....Max out. That means our pen is covering at least 12 innings today?

 

[50PoundHead]

Why waste a pinch-hitter with two outs and no one on. Let Fried hit and then take him out. Odd move by Snitker.

 

[bravesfanMatt]

Wouldn’t max still be a better option to hit over johan.

 

[CJ9]

Damn....Max out. That means our pen is covering at least 12 innings today?

Good thing we have 35 relievers on the roster.

 

[msstate7]

Damn....Max out. That means our pen is covering at least 12 innings today?

Fried really let his team down.

 

[jpx7]

Camargo is so useless.

 

[msstate7]

Wouldn’t max still be a better option to hit over johan.

I'm fine with getting fried out of our sight as soon as possible.

 

[bravesfanMatt]

Yeah. What I was saying. If fried gets on. Pinch run or something. But why waste one of our terrible bench hitters.

 

[msstate7]

Camargo is so useless.

Got a walk to get Acuna up yesterday

 

[Russ2dollas]

agree on max being a better hitter than comargo. Comargo is not good, but I wouldn't waste one of our 3 PH in that spot.

Max was awful. I agree with getting him out. Ice the leg. Save the innings on the arm. Come back next time.

This is why Tomlin got the million bucks. See if he earns it. I still expect him to give up runs, but hopefully he doesn't get killed.

Can the Braves actually hit vs the Nationals crappy pen?

 

[Hulavol]

Holy **** ! That was Riley ?? Wow!

 

[Hulavol]

Good Josh!

 

[50PoundHead]

Fried struggles and Tomlin is like a hot knife through butter. Odd game, this baseball.

 

[UNCBlue012]

Tomlin will be eaten alive if he pitches against Robles-Turner-Soto though.
