Well Soto makes Kemp look good on defense. They won't be playing the same position for long.

also accurate

 

[Enscheff]

Eduardo Perez

LOL you got it before I did!

Eduardo Perez.

Looks about the same age too.

Lol. Check a few posts above you.

Double Header lineup... Don't necessarily like it, but I am sure Snit set this up with the second game lineup in mind.

 

[Orphan Black]

Soto continues to be the much better rookie than Acuna. He walks at almost the same rate as he Ks

He's actually not much better mainly because his d is so awful. He is substantially better offensively though.

R we frnds agin?

I said EP because I used to see hear and see his monotone voice on Baseball Tonight during the era of BT's decline.

I really don't get it with Fried. Was Pitch/FX broken, as when I looked, the gun was not hot when he started against the Dodgers. In fact, I'm pretty sure it backed up what Newcomb was doing the next day and he can touch 95 but he hasn't normally stayed there.

 

[Enscheff]

When is striker going to start crying about this rookie SP owning the Braves trash offense for 2 innings?

They aren't even trying!! Snit needs to get them focused!! Waaaaahhhh!!

 

[Southcack77]

We will win because our LF defense is the superior.

Why would you even post his, Ensheff? It’s just a troll job.

 

[Enscheff]

OK Camargo, I'm sorry for calling you a utility player and major regression candidate.

Please stop sucking. The Braves need you to help make a playoff run.

Acuna = 1.2 fWAR in 57 games (.021 fWAR per game)

Soto = 2.4 fWAR in 66 games (.036 fWAR per game)

I'd say that's considerably better

UZR rates Acuna poorly. Check baseball-ref.

are you going to bring this up every time we play the nats?
i mean we all get soto is having a crazy offensive season for a teenager.

 

[Enscheff]

Good news is if Fried falters they have Allard in the BP to pick up the slack!

 

[thewupk]

Soto 2.0
Acuna 1.5

like i was saying. soto will be at 1B within a couple of years

 

[USMA76]

Can't help but wonder if that's the end of the day for Fried.
