GDT 3/28/26: Braves vs Royals - Lopez Officially Back

[bravesnumberone]

Pretty funny that Eugenio Suarez punked CB Bucknor on back to back pitches with successful challenges

 

[striker42]

If we lose it's not on Lopez or eve Weiss. If you said before the game that Lopez was going to give us 6 innings of 1 run ball, you'd think we'd be set up for an easy win.

If we lose it's on our under prepared offense that seems unaware Wacha throws a changeup.

 

[CyYoung31]

Weiss is another snit

Buddy, Snit would’ve left him in there after the solo homerun since he was “only” at 77 pitches.

 

[VirginiaBrave]

No way the pen holds up to extra innings every night

Especially if you refuse to let starters see the 7th inning.

 

[CyYoung31]

I don't know why this board expects managers to pull starters early. The Braves just don't practice it. Accept it and move on.

The funny part is that it was early by Braves manager standards.

 

[bravesnumberone]

I forgot this ugly bastard left the Phillies

 

[msstate7]

Matt Olson continues to make AA look like a fool

 

[CyYoung31]

Olson out for 4-6 weeks with broken foot announcement imminent.

 

[msstate7]

Why are they letting him face a lhp

 

[bravesnumberone]

I guess Farmer is just filling a locker

 

[CyYoung31]

Now Weiss letting Yaz hit here is worthy of criticism, then again, I’m not sure he has a better option on the bench.

 

[chop2chip]

I was fine leaving Lopez in to face Sal

But why let Yaz face the lefty? If you think he’s good enough to face Strahm then why even bother with the platoon in the first place

 

[CyYoung31]

I guess Farmer is just filling a locker

Oh, yeah. I forgot about him. Yeah, that’s indefensible.

 

[msstate7]

This inning showing these 2 teams have horrible managers

 

[bravesnumberone]

Why does Ozzie stand 10 miles behind home plate?

 

[msstate7]

They got Ozzie, but that was dumb as hell. He's an auto out vs a rhp

 

[Enscheff]

Braves with another typical offensive let down after winning a big game.

 

[Super]

Why does Ozzie stand 10 miles behind home plate?

He’s really tall with really long arms

 

[msstate7]

Braves with another typical offensive let down after winning a big game.

It's who they are now. They suck offensively

 

[Enscheff]

Now Weiss letting Yaz hit here is worthy of criticism, then again, I’m not sure he has a better option on the bench.

Probably not something to get all worked up over. You just always have to find something to be negative about.
