GDT#7, 4/8/'14: Braves (Harang) vs. Mutts (Colon) 7:05 PM EST [HOME OPENER]

[AerchAngel]

Exactly, Laird has no power. His best shot is a walk or bloop hit.

You are kidding, he could've pull a freaking Dorn.

I can't believe you diss Major League like that.

 

[Dalyn]

I can't believe we are stuck with Fredi. It's a plunking nightmare.

 

[thewupk]

Answer the fvcking question, who has the lowest batting average out of the bunch including Heyward and quit deflecting?

But average has nothing to do with who the worst hitter is so that doesn't really matter. But aside from Freeman and Johnson the rest of the team sucks at the moment.

 

[AerchAngel]

I need to make some summer rolls, I am so disgusted dissing Aaron with that display.

 

[3Deans]

My lineup not that it makes 2 sh*ts

1. Pena 2b

2. Johnson 3b

3. Freeman 1b

4. Gattis c

5. J upton lf

6. Shafer cf

7. Simmons ss

8. Heyward rf

9. Pitcher

I know Heyward is a better hitter than those guys, but stop, think about it, three times he has came up with a chance to do something to win the game for us this season and what did he do?

I will be in the kitchen making shrimp Japanese summer rolls and be back with your answer.

My answer, he sucks under pressure. Really. He had no business swinging at a ball four. I do not effing care BJ is on deck, getting shutout on Aaron's day is a punch to the gut and a diss to our organization.

 

[Dalyn]

Let's not forget the awesome job from Harang tonight. Maybe he can manage if Floyd and Minor make it back.

Well he won that one game in Milwaukee but aside from that he's done nothing. Kind of like the rest of the team. Yes swinging at that that one 3-2 offering was pathetic. No real excuse for that. Not much of an excuse for anything the Braves have done offensively though.

Fredi is an idiot yes, but Heyward and Upton are 7-65 on the season and not drawing ANY walks. That's a .109 batting avg. Super stud has had the game in his hands in the 9th in consecutive games and slobbed the knob. They need to be held accountable.

His next start the Braves will score like 6 runs and he'll allow 8. That's how it works, right?

For sure.

Probably. What's sad is how high six runs sound right now.

 

[NinersSBChamps]

At least Harang kept the QS streak going. Heyward was the only starter save for Harang who didn't record a hit. We also failed to get on base from a walk.

Did I miss anything?

Hale/Fredi broke that one already.

 

[The Tariff King]

HALE FREDI!

 

[NinersSBChamps]

Hale/Fredi broke that one already.

Whoops.

 

[Heyward]

Hard to win if you cant score.

Offense is a joke right now.

 

[NinersSBChamps]

Jason Heyward is wearing some new Colon. It's called skunked.

 

[jason27nc]

Answer the fvcking question, who has the lowest batting average out of the bunch including Heyward and quit deflecting?

Heyward is no where near the worst hitter of that bunch. I will bet you $10 he starts hitting before your boy Bj does.

Can't hit offspeed. Can't manufacture runs hardly. And now they can't hit high-school level straight fast balls. Or they just watch them. It has to be depressing that our pitchers basically have to shut the opponent out.

Another interesting note. This team has not scored a run prior to the fourth inning all year. Again, luckily we've gotten strong pitching, but we're not going to win many ball games having to play from behind.
