GDT 4/11/25: Braves @ Rays - Elder and Baldwin Back On A MiLB Field

[msstate7]

I'm really trying to figure out what the braves are doing with de la Cruz. He starts regardless of pitcher hand, and his numbers are horrible vs rhp and below avg vs lhp for his career

There are no other left-handed options until Verdugo is ready.

 

[msstate7]

Braves just treating games like they aren't 3-9

 

[CyYoung31]

Absolutely nothing wrong with that pitch.

there's white and Fairchild. There's no reason to play de la Cruz exclusively

 

[UNCBlue012]

It's always good to waste games when we are 3-9!

 

[Deester11]

I'm ready to see nacho

Let's not be stupid. That's absurd

Are their numbers any better? White's our speed guy and backup CF.

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

Look at it this way Bryce. You’re already familiar with Gwinnett

Ozzie has been one of my favorites, but something is going on. I don't think he can see well.

 

[WaitingFor2017]

...Just now starting to warm up the pen?

 

[UNCBlue012]

Lmao Elder has zero pride in his craft. Just complete ass every time

 

[msstate7]

Let's not be stupid. That's absurd

Ozzie 2024-5:
.245/.297/.392
91 wrc+
1.3 fWAR

Dude, he's not good, at all

 

[seanyates]

Ozzie doesn't do anything well anymore. Unfortunately, I don't think Nacho has played at all this season. Didn't he injure his wrist in ST?

 

[bravesnumberone]

Yeah that's why Fairchild isn't playing over De La Cruz.

 

[Mad Dog Murph]

He's washed. He was washed last season.

Good thing we locked him up for cheap before he turned to shit

 

[msstate7]

Fairchild and de la Cruz are both in the 70s wrc+ vs rhp for their careers

Nacho is hurt, and I'm mostly talking crap, but I would welcome anyone with a pulse to play 2b vs rhp

 

[bravesnumberone]

Way to have some pride, Harris.

 

[CyYoung31]

This team is so fucking bad, man.
