GDT 8/8/23: Braves @ Pirates

[Mrs. Meta]

I'm not sure why Pillar is getting a lot of flack. He didn't get ant ABs for a while because we didn't face any lefties. But Snit should have been defensive subbing him over Rosario anyways and giving him ABs and at least one start a week.

I can't continue to watch Rosario's lack of defense out there.

Dude has less range for what feels like anyone I've ever seen for us out there. Darnaud and Murphy could probably be better out there in LF.

I don't know, Garrett Anderson was pretty bad lol.

Watch some nut say they’re betting on baseball.

Thankfully Roger Goodell isn't commissioner of this league.

The Phillies are not overtaking us in the division.

Not sure why people are still scoreboard watching the division race.

Well, 8.5 with 2 months left isnt that impossible but probably true. Should be scoreboard watching the Orioles and Dodgers for best record in the league/NL.

It's 10.5. With the Phillies losing game 2 and us winning our game there was a nice little swing.

Looks like there's a good chance the Braves keep Cheerios. Bowman has a TBA spot for Saturday (probably Soroka) and Cheerios pitching again on Sunday.

I really don't understand AA's fascination with Cheerios. There are multiple better options on the 40 man. His Baseball Savant page is about as ugly as you will ever see. There are 352 pitchers in baseball that have faced at least 150 batters. Cheerios is 335th in xwOBA.

No lineup yet for the Braves. I take that as them waiting till the late minute to decide on Acuna.
