Should’ve slid head first so he could’ve touched the plate with his hand

Tucker wouldn't have made that catch. At least Bourjos is good for something.

Probably, but I bet Tucker know knows how to slide into home. But, he probably wouldn’t have been anywhere close to the plate because he’s so slow lol

Snit still dumb. He double switched in the 8th after Swanson double. He could have just ph Culberson for viz in 9th, and Swanson would still be in game

That was his one job- slide in correctly. He failed, and serves no purpose to this team if he can’t do any better than that.

He was trying to score from first, he wasn’t tagging up. He got unlucky on the slide but where he messed up was the sliding straight at the plate instead of going to the back of the plate.

Going feet first too. I know it is safer, but legs bounce and crap like that happens

Yea you right. I was confused. I don’t know why I thought he tagged up.

I think the Braves can be a .500 team this year, but this is danger zone right now. Most likely Suzuki will go on dL tomorrow. We really need 1 of Suzuki and flowers back soon. Need gohara and camargo too. Cannot go on extended losing streak waiting on acuna and guys to get healthy

I see around .500 also. I think it’ll be a fun team to watch this year, just need to find a way to make it until Suzuki or Flowers get back.

If Scruffy keeps on doing what he did tonite I give them above 500.

We are about to be miss state bad at catcher though. Flowers heard a pop, so no telling how long he is out. No idea on Suzuki

Maybe we sign Cameron rupp. He is not that good, but a heck of a lot better than kade Scivicque

Sounds like bad options either way, but I admit I know nothing about either of them

Scivicque was a good player at LSU. Unfortunately mlb is not sec ball. Brantly has actually played mlb before with Miami

I posted this on brave board...

Looking over a FA list, here are the catchers available and their ops and fWAR last season.

Carlos Ruiz - .665 0.5 (54 games)
Geovany Soto - .676 0.0 (48 games)
Ryan hanigan - .671 -0.1 (33 games)
Hank conger - Arizona AAA
Chris herrman - .618 -0.6 (106 games)
Cameron Rupp - .716 0.8 (88 games)
Michael ohlman - .462 0.0 (7 games)
Tony Sanchez - AAA and 1 game for braves
Taylor Davis - .539 -0.1 (8 games)
Michael mchenry - rays AAA
Josh thole - .474 -0.5 (50 games)
Derek Norris - .638 0.1 (53 games)

Without looking at framing stats, I would call Ruiz, rupp, or Norris

Of that list, I think Ruiz would be my first call.
