GDT: Braves @ Arizona: Inciarte and Swanson return to the desert!

[jsebe10]

haha...

Joe thinks that Kemp is lagging the bases because of the foul balls....what about the fact that he's gain 50 pounds since the trade

Grant McCaughley:

Matt Kemp's walk-rate with the #Braves (10 BB in 83 PA) is markedly higher than it was with the #Padres (16 BB in 431 PA) this year.

 

[Garmel]

Does anybody else get nervous when a ball is hit to Kemp?

 

[jsebe10]

About as nervous as the team when they get his room service bill?

 

[jpx7]

Yea, you know, Joe's right: Kemp did Harambe.

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

He was safe, but what a play by Swanson

Reminded me of the Simmons / D'aurnaud play from a few years back. Swanson is very twitchy in the field.

 

[Hudson2]

They aren't going to go out and spend $20m for a TOR pitcher...The last big splash they did like that was Ervin Santana for a one year $14m...then before that was who? Derrick Lowe maybe

There is no really good starters available. They'll have to trade for one.

Quietly a very good night for Folty.

 

[Runnin]

Wonder what FF could do with healthy hands and wrists.

No walks. That's always good, but particularly for a guy with a bit of the gopher-itis pitching in a hitter's park.

This year? Probably just

 

[Garmel]

Thanks, Viz.

 

[Ozzie Swanson]

So Viz has completely lost it.

and eyes

 

[chop2chip]

We really need to lose this series against Arizona, so this doesn't upset me that much.

 

[Garmel]

I hate to say it but McDowell has to go. Too much young talent is failing at this level. It's ridiculous.

 

[bravesfanMatt]

So Viz has completely lost it.

lets give him a few games to get back into the swing of things.. horrible call on his 2nd pitch... really put him in a throw a fastball and just hope being down 2-0.. that curve was right down the middle.

 

[chop2chip]

Matt Williams is bad at this coaching thing

 

[Ozzie Swanson]

I hate trying to bunt Dansby in this situation. Let the kid swing the bat.
