GDT: 8-3-13 Braves at Phillies (BJ Activated, Jason Sits)

[CrimsonCowboy]

Great play CJ

 

[TURBO]

That was impressive.

 

[The Tariff King]

Excellent Work BABIP

 

[NinersSBChamps]

If Beach can get through this inning unscathed I thnik it has been a successful outing. ONly 2 earned runs allowed. Basically made one big mistake.

Yeah absolutely. It would be huge for him going forward if he could end up making this a good start. He could have easily folded and had a similar start today as his first one.

 

[Heyward]

Johnson is a terrible defensive player.

Get out of here.

 

[CyYoung31]

Horrible Horrible Horrible Horrible Defensive Player.

Yeah right.

Range.

 

[Russ2dollas]

worst defender ever........klaw, uzr, baseball reference, gilesfan....

 

[thethe]

Defensive stats my left testicle. They are not to a level of precision where anything of great value can be ascertained.

 

[Heyward]

If you needed a win late in a playoff/WS game and had nobody else. It's baseball. He could get hurt any other way too.

If we run out of players, sure.

But unlikely.

 

[stpeteirish]

I can't wait for Fox Sports 1....................................................Then these promos will end

nope, they'll intersify

 

[CyYoung31]

I don't understand the issue people are taking with saying Johnson is not a very good defensive 3rd baseman. I don't really see how it's up for debate. Oh, he made a good reactionary play, big whoop.

 

[bravesnumberone]

Again, it's going to his left that's the problem. Big problem for most third basemen.

 

[JohnAdcox]

I will be at The Bank for today's game courtesy of my lovely girlfriend (finally cashing in my valentines day gift). Pretty pissed Heywood is sitting, as I'll be wearing his shirt.

That's why he's not playing. Because you have his shirt.

 

[TURBO]

Can Beachy go 7?

 

[thethe]

Beachy change up looks amazing. Once he gets command of his fastball back he is going to be a good pitcher like he was prior to getting hurt.

 

[NinersSBChamps]

Defensive stats my left testicle. They are not to a level of precision where anything of great value can be ascertained.

Zito must be working or something. Because that couldn't be further from the truth. lol

 

[Dalyn]

Very nice six innings from Beachy. Nice to see.

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

Very encouraging outing today for Brandon Beachy

 

[Heyward]

I'd probably call it a day for Beachy.

But I can understand having him go 1 more.

 

[bravesnumberone]

Would really like to add on some runs here, so Beachy can have some wiggle room in the 7th.
