The Atlanta Braves

That’s the only reason I made a big deal about it. Right now we project to have 2 Enders at the plate....

I’ll take it to get Ozuna off the field and Adams out of the lineup

Markakis being back is a pretty big deal lol

A) Andruw friggin Jones debuted in RF. It’ll be okay

...and played a ton of LF for 2 years while Marquis Grissom and Kenny Lofton played CF.

He’s also 21 who barely has 100 PA above AA.

It’s obvious people see prospect list and just assume “OH HES A TOP 20 PROSPECT HE IS A STAR” when yes he’ll be an extremely valuable player but not because of his bat. He’s ranked so because he’s a high floor defender that is going to win multiple gold gloves and can run like hell. Hell if he puts up a 90 OPS+ this year I’ll be extremely happy.

I just don't believe there is any way he isn't better than Ender. And if he is, and he is our plan for the future, why not play him now?

That’s the only reason I made a big deal about it. Right now we project to have 2 Enders at the plate.... his value is very much tied to CF

Like Brown said, give me great outfield defense than Adams in the lineup. When Markakis comes back, then we got Pache in center.

He is playing tonight and I’m confident will probably be our starting CF when Markakis comes back.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

HE IS PLAYING TONIGHT

My original post meant when Markakis comes back. We should bench Ender and go with Pache. I'm not just talking about tonight. Feel free to cuss me out again tho, mod.

Authority issue...Aisle 6!!

 

[GAVol]

Just... rough.

Worst part of being at the game the other night was having the lineup constantly on the Jumbotron and seeing those names and stats at the end of the order. It’s insane that they score as many runs as they do with the absolute slop they’re running out there from 6-9 every night.

Not trying to be a jackass, my apologies

Brian Jordan said it right last night. You're not going to move the veteran over for a prospect unless he's Mike Trout. As long as Ender is decent out there and makes contact at the plate CF is his

Him making contact us the issue tho. Last night was a rarity

If it is, then you move him but after last night you can't uproot the guy. That causes club house issues

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Also my thrid baseman hit 5th tonight. 2-4 with a double and 3 RBI's tonight

Last night was Enders first 3 hit game since September of 2018

On top of that Andruw was only 19. 2 years is a big diff.

Doesn't matter. Can't pull him after his bat has looked better the last few series. If Pache was going to take his spot shouldve been done earlier.

There is more than enough of a sample size to know Ender isn’t going to contribute with the bat at this point. This issue is Pache likely won’t be any better right now.

If they could just get a couple of guys to start pitching into the 6th inning with an ERA around 5.00.... the bar is so low right now for Braves starters.

 

[Power T-Rev]

Touss 'ain't it bro

 

[zjcvols]

Game probably won’t start on time
