Two Folty Starts=Two Braves Wins



DBALB

It’s not. But he could have tried it with any number of other options (pitchers) without burning your limited legit PH options.

I’ve already said I wouldn’t have done it. I just think ripping him for it after the fact is mostly fan BS.

 

[TBrown]

I get it. Just saying it's not a crazy thing to try in that spot.

But it is. If the decision is to bunt then as soon as Flowers reaches pull Duvall back and use Teheran/Folty/Max/Soroka/Keuchel to bunt.

What is crazy, is wasting (an out by bunting and) one of only two PH options for the entire game by asking him to do something he has never done. Bunting isn’t that easy.

I also object to after the fact

Nice bounce back win, Folty being allowed to stay in the game and get out of the jam in the bottom of the 6th could end up being a defining moment of the season so way to DBALB to him also!

Agreed, Julio has been the best at sacrifice bunting on the team for years. Chip or Frenchy made it sound like Duvall volunteered to bunt which if true shows you where his confidence at the plate is right now.

Now I get to watch SummerSlam in a good mood!

Recovery not going as planned
August 11, 2019
Swanson's recovery from a foot contusion "hasn't really taken the turn for the better like we wanted," said manager Brian Snitker, David O'Brien of The Athletic reports.

ANALYSIS
His return is clearly not imminent, and it's possible he is dealing with something slightly worse than a contusion. Swanson should be considered out indefinitely, and in shallower leagues without IL spots it might be time to pivot to a different option. Charlie Culberson and Johan Camargo will continue to share time at shortstop.

Didn't Drew Waters play Shortstop in High School?

 

[The Sheriff]

We could be calling Ryan LaMarre up soon. We need the extra RH bat off of the bench.

 

[The Sheriff]

Blevins shouldn’t be ok the roster. Don’t care if he is LH

He isn’t on the team for his W.O.A.T. film critiquing for sure.

 

[AV_12]

Sounds like we have some Freshman dudes?

 

[The Sheriff]

Dansbae better not miss the playoffs again.

Tennessee +16.5 at Florida TO THE BANK

 

[The Sheriff]

I wonder if AA would take a chance on Josh Harrison once he clears waivers? He is a versatile IF and is only owed $2M through the rest of this season.

Don’t do this to yourself lol

Yep. Florida should cover easily

Not a lot of games, but .176 is Duvall territory
