GDT pt. 2 6-28-14 (Game 2 of DH): Braves (Hale) at Philadelphia (O'Sullivan)

[Heyward]

Sidenote: Bethancourt has a CANNON, if Revere didnt get a perfect jump, woulda been toast at 2nd.

Betchancourt can't hit or get on base. Perfect Braves hitter.

Basing this off 2 AB's in his MLB Debut

Look at his minor league numbers.

And this isn't his debut either.

 

[tvsportscaster]

By the way what does it say about the Braves outlook for Joey T, that they gave Bethancourt his number.

So that's the end-all, be-all then?

That they needed a catcher?

 

[Heyward]

Nice pick by LaSorda.

 

[NinersSBChamps]

Are you dense?

 

[tvsportscaster]

That they needed a catcher?

Well, they didn't give him Cunningham's number 20 which I thought they would or Constanza's 13, so I read into it, that it may say something about Joey T's future with the team.

I was facepalming at myself.

I could Terd packaged with an arm at the deadline for a setup guy, but who really knows though.

I don't think you understand.

Anyway no his minor league numbers aren't set in stone. However he hasn't shown a knack for hitting well and getting on base in the minor leagues. Why all of a sudden would he start to hit at the major league level?

 

[Fredi Gonzalez]

So when can I expect the "fire anyone who suggests taking Hale out of the rotation" thread?

Never said he'd be Babe Ruth but it's a bit early to say he cant hit.

 

[NinersSBChamps]

The new hittin fool!

 

[NinersSBChamps]

Remember all the haters? Where are they now?

 

[Heyward]

BABIP'D!
