GDT 5/10 Braves @ Marlins

Great at bat from Acuña.

that's not an AB you see from most 20 year olds

 

[Ozzie Swanson]

Like I said before Albies faced a LHP in Cincy, there's issues if he doesn't hit him.

I think it's time to get a teeny bit concerned.

No there isn't. He was red hot for awhile. Now he's going through a cold streak. He's going to be fine.

 

[UNCBlue012]

Come on, Nick!

 

[GeorgiaGirl]

I expect Inciarte to end up with similar overall numbers that he had last year by season's end. I'll take that in a leadoff man, esp. with him stealing more bases this year. But I would still have Albies leadoff vs lefties.

Given that he's BABIP driven, sorry but it shouldn't surprise if he doesn't. He's going to have years of tough luck BABIP wise that have him at .280/.330/.380 or so...and that is not leadoff worthy...or top 4 hitter on the team worthy.

 

[UNCBlue012]

We can’t do any sort of hitting with RISP lately.

 

[Braves1976]

Folty had to run bases whole inning. How often does a pitcher give up runs after that? It seems they do a lot.

When Ender gets hot he can stay hot for a while. I am not betting against him like you.

There is plenty of evidence Babip is skill related, not simply random.

 

[USMA76]

Come on, Camargo.

 

[Ozzie Swanson]

Come on, Camargo.

Faux Dansbae makes that play.

 

[USMA76]

Faux Dansbae makes that play.

Let's see if that error gets into Folty's head.

 

[USMA76]

Folty throwing some good pitches that aren't being called and it costs us a run and, perhaps, the lead.

 

[Hawk]

boohiss

 

[Braves1976]

As usual, pitcher runs the bases and gives up runs very next inning.

 

[UNCBlue012]

Dang it. Tie game. I figured our awful RISP-hitting would hurt us

 

[msstate7]

Can folty hold them to 1?

shouldn't have though

 

[AerchAngel]

Suzuki sucks a calling pitches

He cost us that run. Folty can't control a low slider, he has been money on high ones. The Marlins know it is a slider when it is low coming at them and lay off.

 

[EstebanBugatti]

Come on, Camargo.

No clue why so many people on here love him so much. He isn't that good at all.

 

[nsacpi]

if Folty's spot comes up in the top of the 6th we should pinch hit for him...then try to get 2 innings from Biddle or Gohara
