8-28-14: GDT: Braves (Minor) @ Mets (Niese)

[bravesnumberone]

If it's a halfway decent lefty, we're going to struggle. Just accept it, and hope our pitcher is better that night.

You do realize we have crushed lefties this year, right?

I wouldn't use crushed, but I'll retract the statement.

What's the #s vs lefties ? The ABs vs ole hook nose Neise tonight would say we've never even seen a lefty.

Pretty good. Just at a glance around .740 OPS. We've gotten owned by some good lefties, though.

 

[bravesnumberone]

How many more wins could we have with that Mets CF?

 

[Runnin]

We've faced fewer lefties than any team in the majors. Our numbers are good against lefties but it seems even better since we're so horrible against righties.

 

[bravesnumberone]

We may be good against lefties, but we sure as **** aren't good for our lefties. We routinely give Wood nothing, and Minor has pitched his ass off again, and he still has no room for error.

 

[bravesnumberone]

Is it so hard to give him some breathing room?

Come on, damnit.

 

[Runnin]

Who fixed Mike Minor? He looks like a different guy.

Greg Walker.

Smoltz and Santana.

 

[bravesnumberone]

That's disgraceful. It's time for Heyward to start upping his game against lefties.

 

[yeezus]

Too bad we didn't take advantage and trade Minor while his value was at its absolute lowest.

 

[bravesnumberone]

Wow, that ball took off. BJ would have watched that pitch and complained.

Greg Walker.

 

[cajunrevenge]

Greg Walker.

Did he "help" the Mets hitters?

 

[Garmel]

I'm curious if Boni has ever thought about giving up switch hitting and just start hitting from the right side full time. With his bad splits I don't know how he could be any worse.

 

[bravesnumberone]

Told Minor to pretend it was our hitters.

He looks much more comfortable from the right side.
