That’s 2 games called early this year. I can’t remember the last time we had one before this year

Did we win the other one?

 

[Mistaken4193]

Did we win the other one?

Yeah, against the Pirates

 

[Chewbaccer]

Kinda cool. Fried gets credit for a complete game.

 

[Mistaken4193]

7 game lead with 52 games left.


If we play .500 (26-26)the rest of the way that would put us at 91-71. Meaning gNats and Phil’s would have to go 35-19 to pass us.

If we went 30-22 that would put us at 95-67.... meaning gNats and Phil’s would have to go 39-15 to pass us.

Tonight will be one of the few games where I hope Tyler Flowers is in the lineup. We're facing Alex Wood. Flowers is hitting over .600 with 8 RBIs against Wood.

Hey. Lane Adams is back in the organization on a minor league deal.

My all time favorite scrub player. I look forward to seeing him in September.

But how many passed balls does he allow that lead to runs being scored?

True

Tyler Flowers indeed is in the line up. As is Austin Riley and Johan Camargo. Flowers batting 6th. Yikes.

Riley is an important future piece, so he needs to play. Whether it's here or in AAA.

Camargo has been horrible all year. No reason he should play when we have Charlie

 

[Chewbaccer]

I'm assuming Flowers batting 6th is Snitker being aware of his history against Alex Wood. I'm giving Snit the benefit of the doubt here.

Gausman ain't ready. 2 batters ... a hard hit ball through the shift for a single and a tater. 2-0, no outs.

 

[Rod Freakin' Dangerfield]

Yep. Gausman is definitely on the mound.

Put his ass in Gwinnett & bring up Foltynewicz.

 

[Rod Freakin' Dangerfield]

Or.....swap Gausman & Pussy in the pen.

 

[bamafan4evr12]

Gausman will now be known as Garbageman in my mind. Alex Wood is dominating us too

 

[Mistaken4193]

Damn Acuna killed that one

 

[Mistaken4193]

That #5 spot in the rotation looks back up for grabs. I say let’s give Folty a chance.

Yep, cause Gausman isn't the answer. I'd be game to let Newk have another shot at it too.

I like Newk in the pen, I'm worried if we throw him in the rotation again he'll cave under pressure.

I think give Folty one more shot then you probably have no choice but to go with Newk in the rotation
