GDT 4/2/26: Braves @ Diamondbacks - Ramping Up in the Desert

[Hulavol]

The fact that they are even discussing the possibility of Jose possibly starting is disgusting and nauseating.

If Yamamoto can throw 90 pitches in Game 6 then 30+ in Game 7, I think Bido will be fine.

Suarez won’t be though.

SOLID!!

 

[Slippyjms]

3-1

 

[Enscheff]

? This is literally what he is for.

I know right. Why use a position player? Might as well use a real pitcher up by 16 in the middle of 13 straight games. No matter what, don’t save any pitches for any pitchers.

Are you arguing with no one again?

Using Bido for three innings as your long man out of the pen seems like an odd thing to be stressing about… of course, you have to complain, and there’s not much else to complain about tonight.

Have to protect the run differential.

Gotta protect the arm of the guy who probably won’t be on the team next month

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

Thinking to myself that there shouldn't be anything to really gripe about tonight. I keep underestimating this site sometimes

Seriously. He’s already in the game. Two easy innings versus three easy innings is nothing. Dude just invents grievances.

 

[jpx7]

Btw, a phenomenal game to watch in person. Exciting early; blowout late. Chef’s kiss (even if not Enscheff’s kiss).

 

[Nerfherders]

I couldnt help but think while watching that 5th inning, that a year ago that same sequence would have resulted in 0 runs. We probably still win the game but wow. Might be the biggest run differential on ABS this season.

Trying a little too hard.

ABS is great. Just need it all the time now.

I'll take 5-2 over the 0-7 from last year.

LOL I was just coming to post this. We just picked him up off the scrap heap. But somehow we're supposed to be concerned the last pitcher on the roster might not be available the rest of the series....

 

[Carp]

140 wRC+ since the break last year.... Just saying.

After yesterdays game he is officially at 136 wRC+ since the 2025 ASB. Granted, it's almost entirely against RHP and he is unplayable vs LHP. But he could make a pretty mean DH platoon with Murphy.
