GDT #14, 4/15/'14: Braves (Hale) vs Philthies (Lee); (GAME POSTPONED)

[sturg33]

Might be good if a mod edited the subject line by adding "postponed."

How come it's impossible for us peasants to edit post titles?

Wonder if we'll skip Hale. I would and use him as an extra bullpen arm.

 

[sturg33]

Hope we skip Hale... He's not very good and don't like him pitching in CBP

We give you an inch and you'll take a mile.

#Braves will skip Hale's rotation turn; he'll be available out of bullpen next 2 days. Teheran vs. Cliff Lee Wed., Wood vs. Burnett Thur.

Damn, seems like something like this always happens (games postponed) right when we get our bats going and start going on a run where we steamroll opponents, only to cool off afterward.

good move. I guess we know who's leaving the rotation when Minor's back.

Game will be made up during June 27-29 series. Good call on skipping Hale.

Like there was much of a choice.

Hale is a borderline #5/bullpen pitcher.

Did you notice that BJ is still hitting second?

If BJ doesn't walk last night, Freeman taps to Utley and there isn't a forced force play at second.

Oh, well never mind then. Keep him second all year!

No, but at least let him build up confidence first before moving him.

This is random but I see we play Boston for a 2 and 2 series during rivalry week (usually the interleague series in late May).

It's strange because for over a decade since interleague was introduced, we were Boston's "Natural" designated rival by Major League Baseball. Then when we sucked for a few years the schedule makers gave us Toronto. Now that Philly have sucked recently and we've been a 90+ win team, we get Boston again.
