JOHAN!!! No way Bautista makes that play.

 

[Mistaken4193]

Should have stuck with Carle.

 

[Mistaken4193]

COME ON MINTER!!

 

[Mistaken4193]

BRAVES WIN!!! And I almost had a heart attack.

 

[Mondo Jay]

I would try and trade him. He is only 27 and has already lost 5 mph on his FB. He use to throw 94, now he is 89-90. I would also try and trade Camargo, especially with Riley looking like he is soon to be ready.

I love Camargo as a the super utility dude (if not at 3b every day).

 

[Mistaken4193]

Despite giving up 4 runs Teheran didnt pitch that bad. That Almora HR was all wind...thats a routine fly ball anywhere else.

I'm a fan as well. I doubt this Bautista experiment lasts much farther than when Dansby gets back.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Listened to the entire game on the radio.

I'll take the win, but I'm getting to the point where I want to try Winkler as the closer. I'd say Carles, but has been far too valuable cleaning up jams creating by other pitchers.

Winkler and Carle have been money. The rest, shaky at best.

But again, a road win against the Cubs is always a good win, and I think today technically counts as another series win.

And Teheran pitched good despite the two homers and the constantly shifting strikezone.

Guarantee you that Folty wouldn't have gone 6 today.

 

[Chewbaccer]

And best of all, we pick up a half game on everyone in the division today.

1.5 up on the Phillies. 2 up on the Nats. 4.5 up on the Mets.

 

[Mistaken4193]

I really hope Snit gives Acuna a day off soon and moves him down....He is swinging at some BAD pitches and is watching Strike 3 go down the middle too much.

 

[Mistaken4193]

Hopefully we can get 2 of 3 from the Cubs at home. I like our chances against Darvish tommorow.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Don't get me wrong, I'm glad he did it, but that wind aided 3 run homer is gonna buy Bautista some extra playing time, which sucks. Guess we'd better hope his bat starts to make up for the bad defense.

He got severely under it. Its a routine fly anywhere else. Severely Wind aided.

I just watched the replay. Good thing the wind is always blowing in Chicago, and it was blowing out today.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Only Freddie remains.

Yeah it was really blowing out the first 5 innings, Bryants HR was probably the only legit one hit today

 

[Chewbaccer]

I'm sure the rest aren't walking near as many, and going deeper, but not bad.

 

[Mistaken4193]

Please God , Let us have composed Folty tonight.

 

[Mistaken4193]

What a throw by Zuk!!!

 

[Chewbaccer]

First time I can remember our catcher catching a runner stealing this season.

STrike em out, throw em out to end the inning.

Hopefully that will give Folty some confidence tonight.
