Still better than having Cahill out there.

Definitely. Let him take his lumps this year.

Still better than having Cahill out there.

But wait, I thought Cahill had potential?

 

[Garmel]

But wait, I thought Cahill had potential?

I think whatever potential Cahill had is long gone.

 

[Braves1976]

I think whatever potential Cahill had is long gone.

I understand, I just cannot help joking about that since just a month ago when I opposed the trade some made me out as crazy for nothing seeing Cahill as they did. Now it seems most everyone agrees bringing him into a game is like waving the white flag.

 

[USMA76]

Folty obviously is getting eaten up by his pitch count and not being able to finish off batters.

 

[Carp]

I think whatever potential Cahill had is long gone.

I think he ate his potential.

 

[thethe]

Nice inning!

 

[Braves1976]

I think he ate his potential.

Maybe Harang stole it, er, ate it before leaving for Philly?

 

[thewupk]

Folty is ready

 

[Carp]

Very efficient inning by Folty there.

 

[Braves1976]

Nice inning!

Yea, I am just concerned that this won't work against most teams. Tonight's Philly line-up is really terrible minus a few batters and they're chasing stuff way outside. I hope that continues of course but I wouldn't bet on it working most nights against good teams.

 

[chop2chip]

That slider to Herrera to strike him out was one of the weirdest pitches I have seen. You usually don't see a slider break like that, that high.

 

[thethe]

Remember when Simmons was supposed to be a no bat fielder?

Yeah, he just may be a top 10 player in terms of overall value now.

 

[Braves1976]

Simmons almost hit another homer, double this time. Good start to this inning.

 

[USMA76]

Wow, Andrelton just missed with that one. Halfway to the cycle.

 

[Julio3000]

Damn, Tron.

 

[thethe]

Folty is ready

I don't believe so. Not yet.

 

[thewupk]

Yeah, Folty misses his locations way too much. Its going to get him in trouble.

 

[USMA76]

I don't believe so. Not yet.

Agree that he's not "there" but I really like his potential Of course, I'm reminded of the quote "potential just means you haven't really done anything yet."
