GDT : Braves @ Yankees

[Enscheff]

Kazmir still throwing 86, and Judge is about to bat

 

[Enscheff]

and now Stanton fuuuuuck

 

[thethe]

Camargo may end up being the long term option at either third or short.

 

[nsacpi]

Acuna Albies Soroka Gohara...a lot of upside in that quartet

 

[Enscheff]

Stanton pokes a ball to RF...that lines off the wall.

 

[Enscheff]

Kazmir humps up to 89 to K Bird above his hands.

Who else is scheduled to pitch today?

 

[Russ2dollas]

I think the Braves don't need a 5th SP until April 11. They could go with Teheran, McCarthy, Folty and Newk/Kazmir until then. AA did a decent job converting Kemp into rotation depth to delay the need for the young guns.

Hopefully Gohara is ready at that point, but it wouldn't break my heart to see him spend a couple months in AAA.

I'd rather see Wisler, Sims or Fried get knocked around for a couple months than rush Soroka.

I do not want to see Soroka until after the deadline. We have plenty of arms. He's so young.

Acuna is young. Do not rush him. Let him see months of AAA old head sequences.

Use Sims and maybe he is good enough we can get a Chacin or Harrell like return.

Riley with a double to knock in Decker 4-0

 

[Enscheff]

Riley strokes a ball into the LF gap for a double. Tanaka is not locating well at all.

Tanaka just removed from the game.

 

[bravesfanforlife88]

and Tanaka is out of the game

Ronald is ready. It wouldn't be "rushing" him. It would be doing the right thing.

But they are going to manipulate his service time, I'm sure.

Agreed. at earliest for me.

 

[BeanieAntics]

Riley doubles to center. Good to see him have a bit of success vs a very good pitcher

Tanaka did not have it today, we hit him pretty hard.

 

[Enscheff]

Riley with a bonehead base running mistake on a grounder to the pitcher.

 

[bravesfanforlife88]

that was a great at bat for Albies, fought off some tough pitches

 

[Enscheff]

Albies did a good job leveling off a high fastball for a humpback line drive base hit to LF.

Last year when he was called up that would have been a routine fly out.

Agree wholeheartedly.

 

[Enscheff]

That's the 2nd good blocked ball I've seen from AJax this ST. Maybe he can't throw?
