7/20... 2nd half begins - Nats game 1

[jpx7]

Agreed.

But I've about given up on Dansby ever becoming an above average hitter

If he can be average, with the double-plus defense he’s shown this year, I think he’s very useful for a few more years. Anything above average with the bat is gravy, though I’m still holding a dimming candle that he can make it happen.

Did Chip just say the Freddie at 3rd experiment didn’t work? C’mon man, it was great. Where does that even come from?

That whole mess was just a good advertisement for what an awesome dude Freddie is. Shouldn’t be considered any more or any less than that.

Everyone gets enjoyment out of being right and having "I told you so" moments. Its literally the most human emotion ever.

So says my 6 year old.

 

[UNCBlue012]

Soto homer... it’s now a game.

 

[sturg33]

Why can't Biddle get lefties out?

 

[Braves1976]

reverse splits

 

[TheBravos]

I’ll take that one. I cursed Biddle. My fault. Totally.

 

[Heyward]

Soto is crazy good.

 

[UNCBlue012]

Still don’t think Soto is anywhere near as good of a hitter as he’s shown.

 

[Enscheff]

Hanging a “Magic Number” sign to begin the season is an excellent way to jinx the whole season haha.

I agree he is a net positive from a value standpoint.

But I think if we added Moose we'd be better off as a whole putting camargo at short rather than benching camargo

Soto homer... it’s now a game.

Youngest guy in mlb... harrumph. That kid can rent a house at spring break without an Id or guardian signing with him

Why can't Biddle get lefties out?

Its a weird thing. He's had reverse splits throughout the minors.

 

[Tapate50]

Why can't Biddle get lefties out?

It’s weird how bad he is at it

 

[Enscheff]

Seeing Gio face Newk and Scherzer face Folty is going to be fascinating

 

[GeorgiaGirl]

Still fine with Biddle batting. Can't use your top guns everyday and it would've been preferable for Winkler to not be up.

That reverse splits thing though, man is it weird.

 

[TURBO]

Acuna makes me nervous on like every ball hit to him.

 

[nsacpi]

It’s weird how bad he is at it

Its not as bad as the small sample major league numbers make it seem. But it is a thing.

 

[Enscheff]

If I’ve learned anything in this 1 game, it’s that the Braves have solved the leadoff issue!!!

 

[Tapate50]

Reckon we could nab some pen help from Washington once we sweep their asses?
