yeah don't really understand what the Braves are trying to do here, I guess I get what the cards are...rather they get rid of Peralta but I doubt he has much value at this point

They're trying to tell their fans not to doubt that they've reached the key inflection point of the rebuild

And I think Adams is a prototypical example of one of the kinda guys their evaluation system massively overrates

And seriously it's like they hate Jace Peterson

I know he's not a first baseman but it's like they've just made an executive decision that he won't develop further so there's no need to get him at bats because his bat will never progress past utilityman level

They'd rather call up Ruiz early than play Jace at 3B. And Adonis can only hit against lefties and he's an old man, but before he got hurt they wouldn't play Jace at 3B against righties

And Jace was surprisingly good defensively at 1B the past couple games despite being so short

tanaka blows

Just add MSG

Read somewhere that maybe the Braves are hoping Adams goes ham on that short porch in right so they can flip him for a better asset than the dude they just gave up

Hart definitely said that to Chip and Joe

Man, Manny Machado is just unfairly good.

Whoa. CMart with 8 innings of shutout baseball. 2 hits, 4 Ks. 73 pitches. It's crazy because he could realistically go 10 or 11 innings at this rate, and the game is still 0-0 cuz Shark has also been pitching a shutout

I doubt Matheny lets him pitch the 10th. would be cool tho, and he did just bat in the 8th

Yeah he threw 20 pitches in the 9th, thats prob it for him if it goes to extras

Anytime you can make the first out at 3rd base in a walk off situation, you have to do it.

And now a new and improved zero game win streak

It's those moral victories that really matter. I mean who wouldn't be excited about putting together a 10 game win streak in May and still be 6.5 games out of 1st in the division.

Dbacks ever lose?

Cubs needed to rest their bullpen after Friday's game. I'm 85% sure that's why the game was so quickly cancelled.

Giants the pimp, Crads the ho

Same as it ever was

Giants just need to win 58-0 tomorrow to get back to neutral run differential.

That's all? I would've guessed 100. In fairness, 7 of 8 wins with a chance to sweep on the road is nice to at least get out of the basement for now.

Can the Birds resign him? I'd hate to see another Mike Mussina Manny Machado MM! defection to the yankees

can they? sure. will they? no

bah

Good day for the White Sox!

Signing 19 year old Cuban Luis Robert, #2 international prospect behind Ohtani. And then brought their raping boots to the ballpark.

He's Cuban, so probably actually 29

His K rate is lower than it's been in several years.

His walk rate is above last years.

It's a 20 inning sample size.
