GDT: DBACKS VS BRAVES

[bravesfanforlife88]

As called Fredi not here's enough to get thrown out

 

[nsacpi]

Excellent grit, veteran leadership, maturity and clutchness there.

 

[Braves1976]

Thanks Goldy.

 

[USMA76]

We've gotten two double plays tonight on line drives that were absolutely scorched.

 

[Braves1976]

Nice pitch frame, got a K finally thanks to it too. If Flowers were catching he'd have a few more and less walks I bet.

Our luck is turning. Slowly but surely.

0 k's for Blair... Did he strike guys out in MiLB?

And of course, he k's a guy haha

 

[Julio3000]

Saw that AJ got tossed. Way to take one for the team, buddy. What happened?

 

[Braves1976]

He had a big strikeout game before his call up, but he is a groundball machine and purposely pitches to contact too. He will get more K's in the future, he is a smart kid and good young pitcher.

Nothing to worry about IMO.

 

[Braves1976]

Man, every game pinch hitting for our starters early. Blair could have a quality start with just one more inning and only at 92 pitches. Plus with some defense he could have zero runs across too.

 

[USMA76]

Close play...Aybar was only out by about 10 feet.

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

Well, that was a brilliant idea.

Arguing balls and strikes when he struck out looking

Haha, not being as fast might explain his lack of range at short now too. He use to have plus range at short, won a gold glove due to it. That was then and this is now.

Auditioning for the manager gig. That's veteran leadership right there.

 

[Braves1976]

Good move Fredi, removing Blair early worked out already.

Story of this team--a lot of "used to be" instead of "are now." AJ, Aybar, etc.

Maybe he heard Bowman's speculation about Monday and auditioning for an interview.

 

[Julio3000]

Wait, Brandon Drury has 6 HR?

Yea, JJ stinks again like with the Dodgers too. He lasted just long enough to include as a small piece in the Olivera trade, but man he's awful now. I didn't get re-signing him, but I know he was Hart's favorite closer back when he worked on MLB Network so that probably explains it.
