GDT: 7-30-13 Rockies at Braves, Wood pitching, JHey lead-off

[bravesnumberone]

I have no idea how you calculate it, but Simmons' defensive WAR better be through the roof.

Wood gave us just what we needed tonight....

 

[Heyward]

It took a fantastic play to get an out there. He has nothing left right now.

Just struck out Helton.

 

[The Tariff King]

Seriously though, Simmons is playing like a man possessed right now.

Offensively AND defensively (as always).

 

[thethe]

Okay.

Regardless, great start from Wood. Getting a big lead is evidently what he needed. Hope we can continue to score 8+ when he is out there.

I wouldn't mind that!

I mean we have had some good SS, but this guy is just all by himself. He's Yadi Molina at SS.

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

All in all, good job by Wood

 

[Gary82]

Wood's line:

7.0 IP 6 H 3 R 1 BB 7 K

 

[Heyward]

Okay.

Regardless, great start from Wood. Getting a big lead is evidently what he needed. Hope we can continue to score 8+ when he is out there.

He only gave up 3 through 7 against one of the best lineups in baseball. Not much after the first few innings.

Team MVP

I've seen them all for the last 35 years, including Ozzie and Omar, and Andrelton is the best I've ever seen.

 

[ChadWC]

Wood has a place on this roster if its only back in the pen for the rest of the year.

 

[Heyward]

Hopefully we can let Varvaro go 2 and save the pen.

CUNNINGHAM!!

 

[mossy]

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

Awesome! Save that baseball

 

[The Tariff King]

The reason Murph can remember his first his because he's never drunken alcohol to erase it out of his memory.

AND GO CUNNINGHAM!

 

[Tapate50]

Cunny!

 

[bravesnumberone]

True story. Wish I had cable when Andruw was in his prime.

Watching Andruw in his prime was a thing of beauty. You often took it for granted because he very rarely made it look like a great play. He was so graceful gliding to it. But his web gems stand right at the top.

 

[BremanFan88]

Cunningham is the future. Trade Heyward.
