GDT: 7-29-13 Rockies at Braves, Feeling a little Beachy.

[Dalyn]

Avilan actually had better splits vs righties in minors. So treating him like a pure lefty specialist doesn't make sense.

More on Cuddyer than Avilan.

 

[thethe]

Just don't try to shoehorn him into the leadoff role and he can relax and do good things with the bat.

Yeah, he is doing well at the bottom of the lineup. He is going to develop into more of a run producer anyway. Kid has pop in his swing.

 

[jpx7]

If you recall, I've been on the Heyward for lead-off bandwagon for a while.

I do, and likewise.

 

[TDlxANDER]

Hey, I'm back. Did anything happen?

The Owl patted Beachy's buttocks

 

[yeezus]

Good job on the GD thread today, 27 pages and counting

 

[Dalyn]

Avilan looks pretty bad. Please bring someone in other than Varvaro.

 

[Braves1976]

Avilan doesn't look his best tonight. He tends to fade after two straight. I'd took him out after that last hit.

 

[thethe]

I got that feeling again!

The Owl patted Beachy's buttocks

And Hudson immediately sent a text to Beachy.

NICE PLAY!

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

Simmons........What else needs to be said

 

[ChadWC]

God our SS is good.

 

[Braves1976]

YES! Simmons is amazing!

 

[AUTiger7222]

Yes! Thank you Simba!

 

[jpx7]

I bet thethe got that tingle.

 

[weso1]

Just a great play by Simmons.

 

[Frek21]

I'm getting thethe's warm feeling from that play.

The Owl patted Beachy's buttocks

To be fair, he was hungry and mistook it for a couple beach mice.

 

[Julio3000]

The Owl patted Beachy's buttocks

Why yes, Dan, I HAVE been working out.

 

[jpack1]

Watching Simmons play is just a treat. That guy is just do damn good.

 

[Braves1976]

I tell ya, that Simmons is special. That's two amazing plays tonight so far.
