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

[Heyward]

Maybe so but Downs is pretty much a loogy these days. That's all he should be used for.

Eh, he's ok righties.

Even still, I'll take my chances with Downs.

Ugh, Terd..

 

[bravesnumberone]

Come on, be smarter than that.

 

[parkvadawg]

Hot mess of a Terd

 

[CyYoung31]

Heyward should be back in the lead-off spot next inning.

 

[atl717]

Terd has some bad plate discipline. His numbers in the minors reflect that as well.

 

[sentenza]

6 Balls but struck out! Horrible!

 

[bravesnumberone]

Fredi should bring Varvaro in here....

 

[Bdawg2309]

Also don't want downs pitching on the road

 

[sentenza]

Papelbon vs. Heyward to start the 9th?

 

[NinersSBChamps]

Downs to Utley I am guessing with Walden coming in after.

 

[stpeteirish]

Heyward should be back in the lead-off spot next inning.

agree, lets put the starters in and try to win this thing!

 

[Heyward]

Why not hit Heyward for Terdo?

Hot mess of a Terd

Every time that Garcia was going to throw his skider , he'd flap his glove when he came set to get a tighter grip...you'd think someone would have caught onto that...

Now I am afraid we will lose on a Chase Utley 331ft HR

 

[NinersSBChamps]

Why is Downs not in right now.

 

[bravesnumberone]

Why not hit Heyward for Terdo?

I was thinking the same. Maybe he didn't want to risk burning another hitter. Having to pinch hit for the pitcher in the 9th if Heyward didn't get on.

 

[TURBO]

Why is Downs not in right now.

Because Walden is better.

 

[sentenza]

Now I am afraid we will lose on a Chase Utley 331ft HR

a 35 feet homer!

 

[NinersSBChamps]

Because Walden is better.

Downs against Utley is a much more favorable match up for the Braves.

 

[TURBO]

Walden bringing the heat today.

 

[Heyward]

Wow thought that was gone...
