GDT: Cubs @ Braves 5/15

Given Acuna's slump, and the splits for Albies and Inciarte. Albies is crushing lefties but slumping a bit vs righties. Inciarte is doing good vs righties and bad vs lefties. This is why I would start Inciarte leadoff vs most righties and Albies vs all lefties. Albies bats second when Inciarte leads off in that case and Acuna is dropped down the line-up till he gets back on track.
 
Suzuki did a terrible job framing the 1-0 pitch to Rizzo. It was at the bottom of the zone but he stabbed at it line it was a foot inside.

True, but I think part of that was Folty missing where Suzuki was lined up. But looked like a strike at bottom of zone regardless.

If the pitch was right at the glove there would be no need to frame the pitch. The whole point of framing is to not stab at pitches like that and make them look worse than they are.
 
Ozzie needed that, he has been crushing lefties but his OPS vs righties has been dropping. Hopefully he get hot from both sides.
 
Camargo career entering game...
319 PA .280/.331/.440. 1.2 fWAR

Not great by any means, but he has been an asset. Why not find out if he was real? He likely provides the same fWAR or better as Bautista with just his defense at 3b
