GDT 6/23: THE WRIGHT STUFF

[CyYoung31]

Snit says he's an opener.

Watch Snit try to squeeze 5 innings out of him.

Chavez hasn’t been starting, so while I expect him to try and push Chavez beyond what he should, I seriously doubt he lets him throw that many pitches.

Rafael Soriano accepted the qualifying offer unexpectedly.

pulled a Maddux

 

[50PoundHead]

Should've just paid Soriano his money.

Funny thing was the Braves got bit twice by the surprise acceptance of an arbitration offer twice in the decade; once with Maddux and once with Soriano. Different GMs making the same bad decision.

I wish this were enough to give me confidence.

Helluva career and to think we got him for Horacio Ramirez.

Horrible Ratios. Now there's a name I've not heard in a long, long time.

 

[msstate7]

No Acuna or heredia. Please tell me we have another bat for tonight?

Turned out to be “the wrong stuff”?

Can we start a countdown until Kyle Wright is DFA'd? From what I see he has an option left after this year so hopefully by the start of the 2023 season this nightmare will be over.

 

[TheBravos]

He will be traded to the Giants at the deadline, where he will become an all star.

I honestly wouldn't be surprised if he goes to another team and becomes a good pitcher. He fits the mold imo of a pitcher who gets fixed with a small tweak but it's never going to happen with us. I am a big believer that the organization a player is developed by has a bigger effect on their outcome than we recognize. Some players are just going to be second team bloomers.
