GDT 5/23 STRIDER: I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger

Acuna: Blistering ball right at someone
Olson: late because of his long ass swing for an easy pop out.
Murphy: Popout

The Braves 3rd.
 
This is 2nd time through lineup. Braves, you are too dang good to keep being trash 2nd and 3rd time against starter. Break that trend right here
 
I am about to lose it if he doesn’t take his ****ing pitching coaches advice and throw 99. Strider has no business playing around at 95. He causes himself to throw so many more balls because no one swings at this ****

Between this and Ozzie’s insistence on switch hitting, I’m about over these guys doing whatever the **** they want
 
My biggest concern (frustration?) with Strider is he’s not taking his pitching coach’s vocal, on-the-record advice and throwing the 98-100 he’s elite at. He has no reason to hit 95 unless he’s injured, and he’s not or Atlanta wouldn’t run him out there. He’s not conserving anything, he’s just running his pitches up and not fooling anyone.
 
Olson has cost the braves 3 runs so far...

2 with his error
1 that inning by not moving up Acuna

Dodgers 4-1 when it should be 2-2
 
Oly was the key guy. This kid has velo and nothing else… you’ve got to at least make contact. Murphy and Riley hit it hard, dodgers just made good plays
