GDT 10/31/21: Braves vs Astros - World Series Game 5

[Heyward]

Gotta try to get 2 innings from Minter. Dont trust anyone else right now.

 

[Heyward]

Minter is due up third. Are we going to throw away another ab or burn Minter for 1 out?

Gotta try to let him go 2 innings. If they burned him to face Brantley, thats worse than keeping in Tuck.

 

[CK86]

Good work Minter!

 

[ixiXSolidXixi]

I think we need to used for next 2 - 3 innings and warm up Matzek behind.

 

[chop2chip]

I love Joc but Duvall has a grand slam and a 12 pitch at bat. Joc has been pretty bad since his homer against LA.

It’s not about Duvall. Do you want to see Joc or Minter hit? There is only 2 more times through the lineup so a single at bat matters.

The counter argument is whether you want to lose Duvall’s defense in which case I would have went with Heredia.

 

[bravesfanMatt]

You got to let minter hit. Should have been a double switch or trust drew to get a lefty out. Sorry folks. This is very bad managing.

 

[USMA76]

Gotta try to let him go 2 innings. If they burned him to face Brantley, thats worse than keeping in Tuck.

Unless I'm missing something, it appears that way to me.

 

[UNCBlue012]

Nice, Travis!

 

[thewupk]

I'm guessing Glavine is in attendance somewhere? Would put the 5 best from the streak at the game.

 

[chop2chip]

Thought Dansby hit that much better. Ughh

 

[Garmel]

****ing stupid.

 

[UNCBlue012]

Dansby barely missed.

 

[KOdawg1]

Maybe Soler jacks one here and it doesn't matter

 

[zitothebrave]

Would be nice to get a run from a non-homer.

 

[USMA76]

Thought Dansby hit that much better. Ughh

I thought so until I heard the muted crowd reaction.

 

[bravesfanMatt]

So in a bullpen game our pitcher has hit twice.

 

[jsebe10]

I love Joc but Duvall has a grand slam and a 12 pitch at bat. Joc has been pretty bad since his homer against LA.

Duvall is still absolute ass vs RH…

 

[UNCBlue012]

Awful luck. Ugh

 

[MadduxFanII]

Man, do we have anyone who hits the ball harder than Soler?

 

[Freshmaker]

Think I just saw Meta on TV. There’s a guy in a Brian Hunter jersey they just showed
