GDT 4/20 vs. LAD

[msstate7]

Grilli and EOF are the weakest links. EOF is done. Grilli has lost velocity. Neither will have any trade value. I wish we'd just cut em

 

[UNCBlue012]

Sadly, Inciarte probably easily has that. I'm not mad at Mallex, though.

 

[Braves1976]

Inciarte gets that ball

Sure, but he gets it easier because he'd read it better off the bat. Inciarte is great at reading balls off the bat, it isn't just his speed. Mallex broke back and then almost made up for with his great speed, tough break as ball came loose.

Let's not take it easy on Smith here...he misread it and took a sh*tty route. I like him too but hold him accountable.

 

[WaitingFor2017]

Now you take Grilli out? Not after he walks two guys and looks bad doing so?

 

[Braves1976]

He had it actually. The collision with the ground knocked it loose. Just bad luck.

Yea, despite breaking back on the ball he made a great recovery and caught the ball, knocked loose on impact though.

 

[UNCBlue012]

Right as Grilli finds his stride Fredi hates winning and this team!

 

[msstate7]

Well we seem to be back on track... Bullpen faltering again and kershaw tomorrow.

I noted the misread, just giving him credit for his recovery and noting that impact knocked it loose.

 

[The Tariff King]

Poor Ogando. 4th game in 5 days. I would have just let GrillI out there to die.

 

[UNCBlue012]

And now Grandal gets a lucky little dink hit. Holy crap this team is lucky as hell.

I would agree with this. I would cut EOF and try to find a 2nd lefty from somewhere (anywhere). Grilli can still get you a nice spect in July. I just wish they'd use him in more of a 7th inning role instead of 8th or 9th.

 

[The Tariff King]

AJ doesn't make that heads up play.

 

[Braves1976]

Ogando gives up others runs every time but he's been great with clean innings. Good overall, like his velocity is back and looking good overall. The bullpen in general has been great of late minus Grilli and EOF.

 

[msstate7]

For those that keep up with these things, here's the old guys' era's...

EOF -- 13.5

Grilli -- 9

 

[Runnin]

In good news, A.J. finally threw a runner out.

 

[Braves1976]

AJ doesn't make that heads up play.

Didn't he throw a play like that into the outfield last year past third base?

 

[The Tariff King]

I like how pissed Mallex was. Shows true grit. Unlike the other outfielder we had who never cared, we know Mallex does.

 

[jsebe10]

Freddie Ks on 3 pitches or 4?

 

[msstate7]

I like how pissed Mallex was. Shows true grit. Unlike the other outfielder we had who never cared, we know Mallex does.

The other guy wasn't worried about inciarte coming off the dl soon... Mallex doesn't wanna be riding a bus next week
