GDT: 5/01/2018 Braves @ Mets (Rise of Soroka)

Safe

I’d love to have neck back if he wants to be a bench bat at a million bucks.

Otherwise no thank you.

The only way that happens is if he comes crashing back to Earth. If he continues on his current pace, his price will be too high and the Braves need that money elsewhere. I find it interesting that Dustin Peterson has moved from LF in 2017 to RF in 2018 in Gwinnett. I don't think Peterson is necessarily a ready-made replacement for Markakis, but if has a good year in AAA, I can see a situation where he's part of either a LF or RF platoon.

It should not take this long to review a play

 

[Coredor]

What a joke. He was safe.

 

[GeorgiaGirl]

Lol in the case of replay the tie goes against the Braves.

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

Stupid replays.

 

[UNCBlue012]

Classic umps.

 

[Heyward]

Replay stands ****ing us over, what's new.

 

[msstate7]

If that play were any team running vs us there, safe

 

[Ozzie Swanson]

109 exit velocity on Acuña's double in the first.

 

[msstate7]

Acuna and FF up... ender is an idiot

 

[UNCBlue012]

WTF, Ender.

 

[Hawk]

NOW DON'T GO GETTING ALL COCKY

Agree 100. Tucker and Peterson could be a decent platoon or just two good bench bats for cheap.

If someone wants to give neck 5 plus million then he should take and best of luck.

It sounds like we have less cash than I thought. I’d rather get a couple premium guys and use the Peterson’s of the world to give us a decent bench

 

[Enscheff]

Ender, you were already in scoring position with Acuna and Freeman coming to bat.

 

[Heyward]

Too aggressive by Acuna, would have walked

 

[kurganbravo]

I'm still pissed about that damn replay. Beginning to think that is part of our punishment from the scandal thingy.

 

[sturg33]

That inning spiraled quickly.

Went from nearly having 2 on 0 out... To having a hitter account with man on 2ns... To having a 3-0 count... To having a 7 pitch inning 3 up 3 down

 

[Carp]

So at what point do we consider going year by year with Markakis?

We never consider it. Like ever. Even if Nick has a career year.

 

[Ozzie Swanson]

Good lord, Soroka's change up sitting in the low 80s.
