Seems strange to swap Gattis and J Up when he won't do the obvious swap of BJ and TLS.

The first thing I thought.

Expect a huge game from Melvin.

I know someone wants to do it, insert Fredi shrugging gif. It is most appropriate here.

Its Rico's thread to make. I'll leave this open for now but if Rico makes his thread I will be closing it down.

Considering the balls he crushed yesterday, maybe he is due.

 

[thethe]

I don't understand dropping J-Upt in the order. I love Gattis but that doesn't seem right. Put J-Upt in the two hole.

Whoops, my bad. What are the GDT rules?

Well the records are not being kept at this point so its more of tradition. To summarize:

If the team wins the GDT for the following game is made by the same person. If the team loses the GDT is up for grabs.

No harm no foul.

I'm glad to see Justin in the lineup today.

 

[stpeteirish]

so refresh my memory; why did Julio have trouble pitching in LA and SF?

I don't get it either.

I'm more surprised Gattis is starting. Fredi usually sits him after he records a multi hit game it seems.

He's as good as benched tomorrow.

La Stella won't go to the #2 hole until he plays in a decent amount of games.

 

[mossy]

La Stella is quickly becoming a favorite. Kid just knows how to hit.

 

[NinersSBChamps]

Tarp isn't coming off the field anytime soon. Hope we get this one in.

 

[NinersSBChamps]

Look for me behind home plate tonight. Row 9. I will have a Braves shirt with the lower case "a" and the hat to match.
