Braves: The Tyler Flowers Problem - SportsTalkATL.com

Pretty good read to put it in perspective just how bad Tyler Flowers is.

He's been basically splitting time at catcher the entire season, and has more passed balls than any other TEAM has, and that's not counting the balls in the dirt that most catchers easily block.

It highlights just how bad he is offensively too.

He might be the least valuable player on any team in playoff contention.

Once McCann gets back we need to move forward with him and Cervelli.

Tyler needs to learn that going to one knee on every pitch limits your range.....but hell he is dropping pitches down the middle sometimes

Wait a minute, we've got a guy named Matt Carpenter who can't hit his weight my friend.

If he can catch a ball, he's better than Flowers.

Ryu got shelled again last night.

His ERA is up to 2.35.

Mike Soroka is a full win better according to WAR. 4.2 for Ryu, 5.2 for Soroka.

Soroka could be Cy Young, but not win ROTY(the tards in charge will give it to Alonso because he's a Met, but Soroka is younger and has been better)

They are already building a deGrom bandwagon for Cy Young too

Looking at his numbers, he probably deserves it.

Mike Minor has the highest WAR for a pitcher in the Majors.

We might actually see O’Day

Fuck him at this point.

I think fans of all teams have a player or two on their team they wish would just ride off into the sunset.

MARKAKIS is back throwing. Hopefully we can get him back in that stretch where we play the gNats and the Phillies 4 straight series


This could end up being a blessing in disguise, he got tired and worn down last year going into playoffs.....he should be well rested this year

Stuff looks sharp in the first for fried. Lets see if he can good the big inning this game. Seems to be plaguing him at times

[RubinRock]

Damn. That was a drive

 

[RubinRock]

I told you guys he was the best catcher in the league

 

[bamafan4evr12]

Nice Flowers, just don't drop any balls tonight

 

[RubinRock]
