8/15 GDT: Atlanta Braves (52-64) at Colorado Rockies (66-52)

How odd is it that literally every single pitcher acquired during the rebuild outside of Folty (and even he's had his struggles) has sucked major ass.

Blair, Wisler, Newcomb, Sims.

Barf city.

Because Coppy and his scout staff suck balls

 

[Julio3000]

Strike zone is tiny

Denver imported some minor league umpires.

 

[SJ24]

Newcomb has been much better than folty was his rookie year.

I'm not a big Newcomb guy, but your hate towards the dude is weird

It's nothing personal. Just hate that we built around pitching more than anything.

He has a good reason to hate him and his name Andrelton Simmons

 

[Julio3000]

I'm holding out hope for Newcomb, but I haaaaate that we traded Tron Simmons for him, particularly since Fluffy Jesus is struggling.

Hate coppy then... not Newcomb's fault.

I, and I realize I'm pretty much alone, think folty is holding his own pretty well for a rookie

Not a problem if they were any good at it. Clearly Coppy and staff haven't done jack sh!t when it comes to pitching.

I already hate that bald headed douche. I'm tired of reliving 1980's Braves baseball.

Newcomb...

6.0 ip 5 h 3 er 4 bb 8 k

On the road at a hitter's paradise vs a playoff team. Just awful for a rookie pitcher

 

[jpack1]

96 mph heater blown by Story to end his night. Certainly not a terrible night.

Those walks though...

 

[Julio3000]

Good outing, really.

Dude's just gonna walk guys, though.

 

[msstate7]

Those walks though...

1 was intentional and another was unintentional intentional imo to get to parra.

 

[jpack1]

Snitker managing. Just a buffoon.

 

[msstate7]

Nice hit and run, snit

 

[jpack1]

You don't have to run into a sure out just because its 3-2 and 2 out. You don't have to give outs away you moron

 

[Garmel]

Peterson got screwed. Should have been ball four.

 

[GovClintonTyree]

Good outing, really.

Dude's just gonna walk guys, though.

Yeah. I thought he got squeezed on a couple of those passes. Especially the one to Parra.

 

[DirkPiggler]

1 was intentional and another was unintentional intentional imo to get to parra.

One included 3 strikes that were called balls. Complete bull****.

 

[Deester11]

Shhhh. That's true. Didn't love the trade, but I think Newk is OK for now. If the dude ever consistently threw strikes....IF....I'd feel much better. He has good stuff
