2-2 now. Promote him.

Promote and extent.


I sense he will be included in a thethe future lineup post before the year is up.

 

[50PoundHead]

2-2 now. Promote him.

I hope Freeman doesn't start pressing.

Backstrom is now 3-3 and Freeman is rumored to have come down with a terrible case of diarrhea.

Backstrom taken out of the game after the top of the 6th. Can he get to Milwaukee by game time?

Extent!

 

[GeorgiaGirl]

Wright was announced for Gwinnett and then scratched, so Clouse started tonight.

I think there's a real shot that he's starting tomorrow and is the first pushback for the rotation. He struggled to start, but in the last month or so, his pitches are moving a lot more like they did last year. He might've been a new ball casualty because of him being unorthodox. I don't think it'd make sense to scratch him while he's in a groove and then not use him, so we'll see if this is the case.

 

[Garmel]

Inciarte is 1-2 with two walks so far tonight.

 

[BeanieAntics]

I really do think that Backstrom could end up being the best player from this draft.

 

[CJ9]

Probably worth noting that two of backstrom’s hits were listed as a ground ball to third base and a fly ball to shortstop.

 

[Jaw]

Probably worth noting that two of backstrom’s hits were listed as a ground ball to third base and a fly ball to shortstop.

We should all be happy if he's another Andrelton Simmons.

 

[IslandBrave]

Probably worth noting that two of backstrom’s hits were listed as a ground ball to third base and a fly ball to shortstop.

There’s no room on the scorecard for comments.

That exit-velocity though.
