GDT Sun, 7/22 vs Nats, weather permittiing

[Heyward]

Braves are getting top 5 production from the catcher position this year. But, we do need to start looking at more long term options.

Lightning in a bottle can only last for so long.

Don't think this one is finishing, gentlemen (and maybe another lady or two). That inning with the leadoff hit by Markakis was the time it needed to get tied.

If this does end like this, crap for 3 reasons:
1. FF couldn't make throw to cut down 3rd run
2. Acuna just missed a hr
3. Acuna watched his missed HR so long he got threw out at 2b for 1st out

It is inexcusable to let Folty face the top of this lineup again at 100+ pitches

Sam freeman must not feel well

 

[WaitingFor2017]

Eaton now has an OBP of .403. I wonder if Joe still questions why he is in the leadoff spot.

 

[GeorgiaGirl]

Yeah, even if it works out, it should've been 5.2 IP and fly for him, even with no one on.

Just because he gets on base 40% of the time doesn't make up for the fact that he doesn't run well. Ender would clearly be a better option because he can run.

 

[Heyward]

Crap ball on ball 2 lead to extended inning and likely game once rain comes down. CB is the worst.

 

[UNCBlue012]

Unfortunate back-to-back singles with two-out, but Folty has done a good job battling back. Don't screw this up, Freeman.

He had Turner struck out on "ball 2"

It’s been going on for two years. Flowers and Suzuki are both good players. I don’t think you know what the phrase “lightning in a bottle” means.

 

[msstate7]

Circle this AB... this 3-run hr or 2-run double will be the jump start to Harper and the nats' season

And 1 and 2 get on. Imagine that.

 

[UNCBlue012]

The only thing that scares me with Folty is that he struggles to put guys away. He's TRULY dominant pitch away from being a top pitcher.

 

[GeorgiaGirl]

Sam has a lefty reverse split problem too. Just don't get why even small moves haven't been done yet. Bryce probably about to make Folty's line worse than deserved.

Maybe i dont but the Braves could be better served to find an upgrade.

 

[Heyward]

Figures, Sam Freeman is so bad.

 

[GeorgiaGirl]

Wouldn't you know it. A lefty reverse splits pitcher gave up a hit to Harper.

 

[msstate7]

Just a single, but it was obvious they'd score. Snit is awful

 

[UNCBlue012]

Screw you, Freeman. And Snit. Freaking ****ty manager. I don't understand.

That run is charged to Folty, too.
