GDT 8/5/20 Spring Training Lineup

The Braves have scored more runs than any team in baseball.

The 2 missing players, Albies and Freeman, have posted 2020 wRC+ values of 27 (yes, 27) and 97 so far. Albies has been unplayable bad, and Freeman has produced like an average hitter.

I think it's safe to say the offense is still probably going to be pretty potent, even with those 2 out of the lineup.

This guy destroys Ryu.
 
Admittedly, I am old and participated in the game in the wool uniform days, but why would Teoscar Hernandez swing on 3-0 against a guy who has trouble finding the strike zone. Granted, there were two outs and that mitigates things a bit, but if I'm Toronto, I want Newcomb throwing as many pitches as possible.
 
Ender almost had that.

Vlad needs to lose weight or he’s not going to last long. Wow is he big for such a young guy.
 
Newk is a ****ty starter. He may go five more innings and allow no additional runs but he just sucks at starting. I don’t understand how he can be so good in the bullpen but he stops attacking the second he’s named starter
 
I am following on Gameday, so I take it Riley had a brain fa*rt. If the Braves ever decide to junk their current name, maybe Brainf*rts should be the new one.
