GDT #12, 4/13/'14: Braves (Harang) vs Nats (Gio); No Gattis, CJ, or Uggla

FP is saying BJ's stance/swing makes it hard for him to hit.

While JUp/Werth have a more simple approach at the plate, where they can just put the barrel on the ball.

So FP actually said something that made sense?

Dammit, I knew I shouldn't have benched Simmons on my fantasy team today.

 

[Heyward]

This is awesome.

Why was carpenter warming up when we were up 5 and it would have been his 3rd day in a row?

 

[yeezus]

Why is Simmons even batting right now? Why not just surrender the out? We don't need any more runs, why try?

 

[AUTiger7222]

HOLY SMOKES SIMBA SMOKED THAT!! BOOM! 10-1 BRAVES!

 

[Krovahn]

 

[yeezus]

Why is Simmons trying to hit homers? Ugh. We don't need any runs! Going to make them Gnats mighty angry.

 

[buck7580]

Think the Braves need to not let up. Until Simmons homers...

 

[Dalyn]

Why did Simmons hit a HR in a 7-1 game?

Cause its Fredi. Was that 3 in a row for Walden?

Simmons has a 800 OPS. If he does that he is a MVP type player.

 

[Julio3000]

That's just showing up the opposition. Don't want anyone headhunting.

LULZ!

 

[sturg33]

I wonder if Simmons is going to turn in a really positive offensive player. Would be amazing if he did.

 

[Hawk]

Why is Matt Williams even managing a major league team?

The Nationals are cellar bound hahaha.

 

[sturg33]

LOL...bringing in Blevens to get Laird out

I dont think he's that bad, Carpenter OTOH...

Team could have 4 MVP type players in the everday lineup then. Its amazing how young this team is. If we can figure out a way to continue to get average performances out of CF/2B (LaStella) we are going to win 96 games again at least.

Thats a Freddi type move there.
