GDT 4/8 - Double Dansby Addition...Bourjos the Gorgeous in LF

[Enscheff]

Newk took advantage of an extremely aggressive Colorado lineup.

I had to laugh at how you left out....THE BEST PLAYER IN BASEBALL.

Yeah, can’t believe he left out Maitan.

Uh, Bryce Harper plays for the Nats.

It'll test an interesting development so far this season, which is the very low strikeout rate (second lowest in the NL) our lineup has exhibited. Could be a very positive thing about this year's team. If you look at our lineup, it should be a low strikeout lineup. Which can partially make up for things like not having much power.

I only did this because I thought the Braves weren't striking out as much as I expected:

2018 2017
Inciarte CF 18.2 13.1
Albies 2B 14.0 14.8%
Freeman 1B 9.3 18.5
Markakis RF 14.0 16.4
Tucker LF 20.0 27.8 (2016)
Suzuki C 0 12.5
Flaherty 3B 17.1 23.3
Swanson SS 17.1 21.8

Somehow, Freeman may have gotten even better again this year.

We will probably be humbled this next week but I still feel like this team can fight for a wild card if our starters pitch like they can to their potential.

No hope for Iran's capital city, he is going to give up 30 homers, but I hope they are the Han Solo variety.
