GDT: Braves @ Phillies 4/27 (No Camargo)

Dadgum that was a good bunt, almost perfect but it just went foul.

I missed him stealing home live.

Joe is clueless. Talking about Julio sitting at 91-92 previously. Definitely not sir. If you looked at analytics you might know that.

More like 89-90 with an outlier 91.

Yup. A 2-3 MPH dip in one start is not that concerning as far as injury goes. If anything I have to think Julio might be under the weather or something else where he's not 100%. If that continues over a couple of starts then that's something else.

I’m in Houston tonight watching the Astro’s; maybe I’ll watch a better game.

Nolas change is sexy

 

[Braves1976]

Gohara getting hit hard

How's his velocity? If it's fine, then he may just be rusty. This is like spring training for him. I figured he'd get another start or two anyway.

No idea. Watching a box score

 

[Braves1976]

here we go again

 

[Braves1976]

That was a change-up again on the fly out, glad he swung.

What may be in Julio’s advantage is the “position player pitcher” effect. Hitters get so excited to hit off poor stuff that they get over aggressive and expand their zone. It’s about Julio’s only chance tonight lol

Acuna is ok

 

[thewupk]

plus defense son

Kemp makes that play

 

[GeorgiaGirl]

Great catch Acuna!

Kemp makes that play

after it bounces off the wall

 

[chop2chip]

When is the last time we saw THAT from a left fielder?

That’s a triple with Kemp

 

[Braves1976]

His first K came on a fastball after no fastballs that AB, only 87 mph. Then got that last out on another fastball thanks to Acuna's diving catch.

after it bounces off the wall

*after it stops rolling

Nah son

AJ (Acuna, Jr.) in LF.
