GDT: Cards Vs Braves 4/9

[The Tariff King]

Looks like Simmons cannon nailed Andrus at home after a double vs Texas for the Angels.

Will end up being the greatest defensive shortstop ever.

Yep, Simmons makes plays and has instincts that you cannot teach. He is unbelievable when you consider all the little things he does well on defense. How he positions himself to take throws, blocking the base, catches balls various ways to make plays no one else even considers. He's just special and that I mentioned doesn't even consider his great arm and accuracy with it which is very key too obviously.

 

[NinersSBChamps]

He could pitch for this team if he's interested.

Why stop there? Give him a bat.

 

[NinersSBChamps]

Will end up being the greatest defensive shortstop ever.

Just think of the awesome prospects they in return though.

Am I doing it right?

 

[WaitingFor2017]

Ump just wants to get to the hotel.

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

Come on Matheny, I know he's safe, but it's 10-2 for crying out loud.

 

[NinersSBChamps]

Normally I would be mad at Matheny for challenging that play, but I am not.

 

[WaitingFor2017]

Fire Fredi?

 

[NinersSBChamps]

More errors than runs.

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

Good Heavens

 

[Klesko]

I must admit, not the worse beating I saw today. My 8 year olds team went 0-2 today in their softball tournament and lost 21-0 in each game.

 

[Braves1976]

Having bad defense is going to hurt selling off these players we hope to trade at deadline. It will hurt our pitchers in general too, my main concern is short and catcher.

 

[Dalyn]

Fire Fredi?

 

[NinersSBChamps]

I want Fredi gone as much as the next guy, but who do we replace him with?

Furthermore who is the manager we want to have here?

 

[Braves1976]

Maybe we all should add money to put a lot of money on the Braves losing, at least then we can cash in on watching this nightmare.

JK btw, I am not even a betting man anymore. But if I were...

 

[bravesfanMatt]

we are in 2nd place for the 1st overall pick.. Twins out to a nice 0-5 record has a slight edge on us.. but we should be first based on style points.. we have to had looked like the worse team in baseball..

anyone who says defense is over rated needs to watch this season we are about to embark on.

3B horrible... SS horrible.. LF pretty bad... RF can't run or throw.. C can't catch/throw/call a game

that is 5 positions that are weak defensively. is there any chance for this team?!?

Not really gonna make a lot of money though. I mean you would have to bet a large amount to see a defent return. Think the Cardinals were -180 tonight. I mean it's a virtual lock though.

Exactly, it wont be 6 weeks into a new manager before everyone wants him fired too.

That is why I said if we all went in together, but again I was kidding and main point is we couldn't lose lol.

Braves are now 0-4. They have not gone 0-5 since 1988, when they dropped their first ten that season. They won like 54 or 55 games that season.
