GDT 4/9/23: Braves vs Padres - An Easter Treat

[USMA76]

Nothing like getting worked by a team starting Seth Lugo on the mound. It's embarrassing.

Of course, the great thing about a blowout game is we get to know what the opposing third baseman's favorite colors of Skittles are.

 

[Hulavol]

Acuna with the arm!

 

[CyYoung31]

Amazing what can happen when you throw from your feet.

 

[Garmel]

Ozzie used to be good, but he, Rosario, and ozuna are the 3 musketeers of suck now

I think the new baseballs have a huge effect on Ozzie's along with worse plate discipline.

 

[Metaphysicist]

"that's a great play from Manny Machado with 2 outs" to get thrown out for no reason. This announcer has straight milk for brains

 

[UNCBlue012]

Braves have scored 2 runs last 18 innings.

and they’ve allowed plenty. It goes both ways and both facets are awful right now.

 

[Hulavol]

"that's a great play from Manny Machado with 2 outs" to get thrown out for no reason. This announcer has straight milk for brains

Yeah, that was the dumbest thing he’s said so far - and that’s saying something. In my best Yogi voice.

Hadn't thought of new ball. Maybe Ozzie should embrace being a contact hitter rather than being a faux power hitter

My kingdom for Snitker to dick punch this dweeb…

 

[weso1]

Sean Murphy reminds me of Dale Murphy the way he swings the bat. Anyone else see it?

I absolutely detest the Sunday night production. I watch baseball for the game only. I hate when they start interviewing coaches, players, player parents, etc.

 

[msstate7]

Dammit! I wanted ozuna to be rewarded going to rf

 

[USMA76]

Now we get to listen to the intricacies of MLB players wearing cologne during games. Of course, if it were a competitive game perhaps there'd be less vapid dialogue.

 

[msstate7]

That Cardinal series seems like last year. The braves have been spanked in this series

 

[CyYoung31]

Ozuna has breaking ball bat speed. He’s toast.

 

[msstate7]

Ozuna has breaking ball bat speed. He’s toast.

Certainly seems that way. I will say that was probably lugo's best fastball of the game... 94 down on the black

 

[WaitingFor2017]

Just let Dodd eat another inning or two. This offense has been toast since the end of Friday night.

 

[msstate7]

Come on blue

 

[msstate7]

The move will almost certainly be dodd for wright, so I'd let em eat this inning
