Fredi going with four straight lefties.

That's a bold strategy

Who else should hit in the top 4?

Beckham






I guess

Maybe I've just never paid attention, but that hair on Folty. . . .

Nowhere near as dreamy as Dansbae's hair.

Good thing Mallex is blessed with great speed...

That's 2 balls that weren't quite as difficult as he made them look. He's a lot of fun to watch, but there are times when you just wonder what he's doing in the field and running bases.

 

[AV_12]

@KevinMcAlpin: Mallex Smith leads off the 6th w/a double. 8 of his first 19 career hits have now gone for extra bases.
Now hitting .351 over last 13 games

Hah yup. He's a fun player to see develop though. Really like him

Smh

 

[AV_12]

Love Mallex's simple swing and approach.

 

[GAVol]

Typical game for Mallex... 3 for 3 with a double and triple... get picked off... take a bad route but still make a diving catch... drop a fly ball after crashing into the fence.

Never boring.

 

[CagleMtnVol]

Anyone on here still down on Folty??

Final line tonight!

M. Fotlynewicz: 8 IP, 7H, 0R, 0BB, 4K 103 pitches/74 strikes Longest career outing. ERA down to 2.89 on the year

 

[GAVol]

Lol.... and Mallex catches one right at his shoestrings for the win. Never boring.

That was easily the most complete game they've played all year. They're still bad, but at least there are signs of life.

 

[Vercingetorix]

Back out on the deck tonight. Probably a really, really dumb idea. BUT IT'S SO NICE

This is the last thing between me and that diploma. What a long 11 months it's been...

He is throwing strikes. That needs to continue to happen along with secondary pitch development.

Good luck and congratulations brother

 

[GreatWhiteNorth]

Good luck and congratulations brother

Thanks brother. I am ready to go home, for sure.

 

[Notorious B.E.N]

Lol the Braves have 9 wins from 9 different pitchers.

 

[GAVol]

Typical Fredi... Umpire calls a third strike way off the plate. Player visibly reacts and argues. Camera pans to Fredi and he's staring off into space.

Probably my least favorite thing about him. Never stands up for his players.

One of your hottest hitters is up with zero outs and a runner on second and you try to bunt what a moron

Thought the same. I'll say it again , this season will be a success if Fredi is fired and replaced by someone that is currently not employed by the Braves organization

 

[GAVol]

Eh... With no outs, the play is always to get the runner over to third somehow. Mailed just gagged on another fundamental play which he's prone to doing.
