GDT 5/10 Braves @ Marlins

[AerchAngel]

Usually his balls are close to strikes in pitches, not this game.

 

[thethe]

Oh snit

 

[thewupk]

Why must one of our supposedly better relievers have to pitch in this game?

I wasn't paying attention but I assume he was already warm and ready before Ozzie hit the bomb since there was 2 outs at that point. So at that point it doesn't really matter.

 

[wowbobwow]

no. he was in there giving ozzie fist bumps and ****.

I'm talking about the seconds immediately following the HR. I took a screenshot, but I'm not sure how to post that w/out uploading it somewhere... even still, the shot where he was giving congrats, it seemed pretty 1/2 hearted to me

 

[thewupk]

Mous.

That is looking like the ideal situation

Cool. Doesn't matter as long as he pitches well like he has this year.

moments after Folty removed for PH Tucker: Folty pouting

moments after Albies hits a 4R dinger to take the lead 5-1: Folty still pouting

anyone else notice that?

I don't think Folty looks much different even after a complete game. That's kinda his personality.

I swear people actively look for ways to rip him.

Just like when Andruw smiled when he struck out. That pissed so many people off.

People look for things they can shake their fist at and rip them.

I think he pitched a great game and he should be happy. The strike to ball ratio was outstanding for him and that is a positive sign.

Yeah no freaking kidding.

One could just as easily credit Folty for being a gamer that doesn’t want to leave the game. It’s all so very silly trying to dissect these guys every moment.

What we should be saying about Folty is complementing him for improving his body and refining his technique so he can throw these effortless 100 mph fastballs in the sixth inning.

RF keeps hitting

 

[UNCBlue012]

So glad RF isn’t starting

Fair enough... definitely not my favorite pitcher on the team, as I do tend to prefer guys that pitch instead of throw the baseball

 

[Braves1976]

RF goes two weeks sitting and outhits Joey this game too, lol.

 

[Carp]

I didn't see any signs he couldn't command his pitches tonight. Maybe his slider a bit, but he worked the zone well tonight, I thought. If the offensive onslaught had occurred earlier in the game, he'd still be pitching.

 

[thewupk]

runner on first cost acuna a hit

 

[Enscheff]

I want to see the exit velocity on that Acuna grounder.

 

[Braves1976]

If not for RF being forced at second, Acuna gets a hit there with no one on base or a faster runner. No way they get him at first.

Out of all the main 4 SPs, Folty throws the 2nd most strikes. This notion that he’s excessively wild is pure ignorance.

yea he beats that out easy unless he falls down
