GDT #71. 6/18 12:10 PM EST Phillies (Hernandez) @ Braves (Harang)

Harang staying in? Even at 100 pitches? Oh, Fredi

Crazy. At most we are getting one more inning out of him. And chances are it won't be a good one.

 

[tomahawkchop10]

Truly shocked he got that down with 2 strikes. Still would have pinch hit. But let's go tommy!!

 

[Braves1976]

No worries, we got this game. Braves walk off 18-17 on a Gattis 9th inning slam. Mark it down.

 

[jason27nc]

Oh, so now we bunt the runner over.

 

[sturg33]

Opportunity to score severely damaged due to Fredi not PH Harang

 

[tomahawkchop10]

That was NOT strike two!!

 

[tomahawkchop10]

Ump screwed tommy there.

 

[sturg33]

Fredi loves to put garbage in the 2-spot of the order. Glad to see that hasn't changed with BJ on the bench

 

[Tapate50]

Low and away ball called a strike changed the look of the whole inning.

 

[tomahawkchop10]

That was pathetic.

 

[Braves1976]

If La Stella is going to leadoff you need someone second that will get him pitches to hit. Pena scares no one, though he is probably better than BJ right now sorry to say. That said, I still say La Stella fits the mold of what you want in a two hole hitter.

Heyward should be either leadoff or 2nd and La Stella should be the other spot. How long will it take Fredi to figure this one out?

 

[Braves1976]

Harang cannot get out their rather bad hitting leadoff man, lol.

 

[Braves1976]

Heyward should be either leadoff or 2nd and La Stella should be the other spot. How long will it take Fredi to figure this one out?

He is scared of batting two lefties back-to-back but for some reason a bunch of righties is fine. Crazy logic IMO. Besides, La Stella can hit lefties well so who cares anyway.

 

[stpeteirish]

Alex Wood needs to be put in the rotation ASAP. This is outrageous we are still putting Harang out there.

trying to decide who to replace in this rotation is like a race to the bottom. Have you seen Minor and Santana's #'s lately? But Harang is pulling ahead with today's incredible effort

Remember when we had too many starters?

 

[jason27nc]

I guess Fredi is trying to get him past the 5th so he will qualify for the win. Oh wait.

 

[jason27nc]

Just like that we are back down 4.

 

[stpeteirish]

god, get him the hell out

 

[tomahawkchop10]

Good thing we left harang in.

 

[The Tariff King]

I guess Fredi is trying to get him past the 5th so he will qualify for the win. Oh wait.

Our bullpen has been shot the last week.

Do you really want to try to have our bullpen go 4 innings this game? Assume we tie it, that's MORE work. Fred's just asked Harang to take one for the team.
