GDT 6/4/19: Braves @ Pirates

Johan > JD

 

[Braves1976]

Team would be so much better with Camargo instead of Donaldson.

it is almost like he was listening, lol.

 

[TheBravos]

Timely hitting

 

[CyYoung31]

FWIW, McCann is only 11 doubles from entering that club as well. Of course they weren’t all with the Braves.

 

[salmagundy]

That's a lot of doubles

Corrected the obvious error.

 

[UNCBlue012]

Me:Make the Braves Clutch Again

Riley and JD: hold my beer!

 

[msstate7]

Riley 110.9 on out

I think someone should insult Donaldson every game. Whoever starts tomorrow’s gdt feel free to rip Donaldson.

 

[weso1]

Riley 110.9 on out

I was surprised that ball was caught in the air. Thought for sure it was a groundball.

If he was faster, he would have surpassed the 300 DBLs several years ago.

I think it's fair to be critical of Donaldson's production so far. Before that hit, his OPS was under 800.

That's not to say that I think it's fair to unequivocally prefer Johan.

 

[VirginiaBrave]

Two years in a row ROY? Turning into the Dodgers. Riley is incredible.

 

[weso1]

Donaldson will be fine. He'll go on a tear at some point. Either that or he'll tear something.

 

[Garmel]

If Donadson's BABIP normalizes we could be in trouble if he keeps the current K rate.

 

[Heyward]

Mish- Austin Riley homered AGAIN but Marlins have 15 runs tonight we’ll call it a wash.

 

[VirginiaBrave]

Donaldson will be fine. He'll go on a tear at some point. Either that or he'll tear something.

And then Riley will Pip him.

Thank God every day JT is a Phillie.

I think it's fair to be critical of Donaldson's production so far. Before that hit, his OPS was under 800.

And yet only Freeman, Acuña, and Swanson had better marks in OPS (not counting Riley at this point, obviously); moreover, only Freeman and Acuña have accumulated more WAR as position players.

 

[bravesfanMatt]

Well that escalated quickly. Had to run some errands and a party breaks out. Maybe I shouldn’t be allowed to follow the team for a while.

 

[jpx7]

Swarzak fired up.
