even his Monday start

everything middle of the plate with 2 strikes

He's not used to people hitting 99 MPH, even right down the middle.
I like Folty, his stuff is wicked.. just needs to hit corners and he's set.

Atl bullpen is a joke. Really disappointing to see games that should have been won fall to the lack of reliable bullpen pitchers. Smh

/e I'm loving the starting rotation, loving the lineup, but this bullpen can't stand up to anything.

It's crazy how this years lineup is doing better than last year.. just look at the difference..
On paper, our team last year was stacked, but didn't produce.

This Year - Last Year
C: Christian Bethancourt - Evan Gattis
1B: Freddie Freeman - Freddie Freeman
2B: Jace Peterson - Tommy La Stella
SS: Andrelton Simmons - Andrelton Simmons
3B: Chris Johnson - Chris Johnson
LF: Kelly Johnson - Justin Upton
CF: Cameron Maybin - BJ Upton
RF: Nick Markakis - Jason Heyward

But yeah, our Rotation isn't awful, but they are demanded to pitch 8+ innings in order for us to have a chance.
This bullpen is the worst I've ever seen in my life.. for a team that sets standards at pitching, it's quite an embarrassment.

Which SS should I pick up in ATL?

Jace or Simba?

I have Desmond and I just can't keep rolling him out there, both of these guys avg at least 1 point per game more.

Jace is listed as SS?
He hits much better than Andrelton, Simmons just seems to have more opportunities.

Yeah he is 2B and SS

Jace is the #5 overall SS this season, and hes been a top 3 option at SS over the last 30 days.
damn he's been flying under the radar.

He had a bases clearing triple and a grandslam, so his numbers might be skewed a bit.
He hit a hard HR yesterday, which shows he has the power, but I think that's only like his 2nd of the season.
(personally, I don't want him to get power happy. He's a good contact hitter.)

Yeah looking at his logs he is 2+ points per game with a 15 point game yesterday.
Jace is at 3.5 per game
Gonna have to drop Desmond for him, Desmond has -3.5 points the last 7 days and 6 points over the last 15 days

LOL

Jace currently has bases loaded..
RBI Single because we held Gomes at 3rd because he's slow and fat.
6-9 on the year with bases loaded.
Now Maybin is up, currently #1 in the league with runners in scoring position.
