expecting a yuge game from Inciarte

 

[Garmel]

Folty had one of his easiest innings ever.

making Cole work

its a miracle

 

[Ozzie Swanson]

Two fantastic at bats in a row. Phillips has been a very pleasant surprise so far.

I'd say he's been about as expected. He will end the year with around 1 WAR

 

[msstate7]

Then an awful AB

 

[thewupk]

and then a poor ab by mr professional hitter

 

[Garmel]

I've never cared about the "moving the runner over" stuff, especially with a good hitter up there.

 

[msstate7]

Sucks, but 30 pitches

 

[thewupk]

At least we made Cole throw to 30 pitches

 

[Enscheff]

Did Simpson really just say, "Freese is shifted way away from 3B with Markakis up", and then in the next breath say, "Ender would steal home if there was a RHed hitter up"?

What a ****ing moron.

 

[jsebe10]

Please get that slap hitting clown out of the 3 hole please.

Markakis has the 3rd highest OPS of all qualified Braves hitters, behind a guy on the DL, and the guy hitting 4th. Who exactly would you prefer to hit 3rd?

 

[UNCBlue012]

Holy crap. This is random, but I didn't even realize how bad the Phillies are

Rio! Rio! Rio!

I'm fine with markakis

 

[Enscheff]

Freese sure would look good at 3B and in the middle of the Braves lineup. Too bad The Genius had to "see what he had" with Adonis for so long.

If someone wants to complain about the lineup, they should start with Inciarte leading off.

He just K'd... don't want

 

[Garmel]

Folty got a little lucky there.
