GDT 8/15/22: Braves vs Mutts - Ready for Revenge

[Slippyjms]

I can’t imagine he fetches even that. If he were a free agent I don’t think he gets 2/10m.

Best case scenario is Ozuna is moved in a bad contract swap.

If Ozuna was a FA he likely wouldn’t get anything other than a minor league deal

As long as Acuna is feeling good going into October I like our chances to repeat.

I mean he's a top 5 player in baseball when 100%. He's a game changer.

 

[Hulavol]

Good inning fellas ….

I think Joely Rodriguez is the Mets only LHP. I think I prefer Rosario’s defense for 6 innings and 2 at bats versus a RH.

Ozuna is such a waste of a roster spot.

You may be right, especially up by 3.

However, why is Heredia on the roster if not to allow liberal switching in the OF?

 

[CJC]

Moving Ozuna is dumb unless you get someone to take his contract. His high .600 low .700 OPS is a good bench bat. If his salary isn't going anywhere, there's no sense in not keeping him as a pinch hitter.

Not sure how I feel about strider throwing this inning.

Dammit, Ronald.

Shouldn't be out there after the rain delay

Dammit, Ronald.

wet baseball

 

[Enscheff]

It’s starting to rain again.

In case anyone is wondering, this is a good time to get Acuna out of the game.

 

[thethe]

Shouldn't be out there after the rain delay

Eh. You have him throw two simulated innings with 30 minute rest intervals during rain delay.

He should have been out after two more innings but he’s been efficient these last two.

 

[msstate7]

Great job tonight, strider

 

[Enscheff]

Well…that strider change could prove important for the franchise.

That’s what I said.

But I’ve been told that it’s the trainer’s job to let the manager know when to be proactive with his player’s health.

Awesome job on a tough day Strider

 

[thewupk]

Well…that strider change could prove important for the franchise.

Ride him as long as his fastball allows it

It would be a good bench bat if he could play the field. Also who is he gonna pinch hit for?
