It was awesome. Think I liked the touki performance even better. We really need touki, newcomb, and Wright.

Hey MState. Bumped this for ya, but here is my question. If this were a reg season, how long do you let Austin stay in Atlanta hitting .175?
Yankees are exposing our pitching big time
Pache up
Well now most of the pitching that AA has continued to hold on to has shown that they cant throw strikes and their trade stock is dying. Better hit the free agent market hard this offseason. Obviously no re-signing of Hamels or Ozuna, so its back to finding another corner outfielder and couple of starting pitchers and most likely a 3rd sacker
We could see Ian Anderson soon
Ian Anderson debuts tonight vs cole and the Yankees. Good luck kid
Acuna back up
Ian Anderson was outstanding. I know he won't be that great every start, but he looks promising. If he can lock down that #3 starter, this rotation all-the-sudden looks entirely different next season with soroka, fried, and Anderson... sign a veteran inning eater, and hopefully one of the up-down crew (folty, newcomb, Wright, touki, and Wilson) takes that 5th starter.
Half way home, and the braves are in 1st place with only 1 team left on the schedule with a winning record, marlins. Braves finish 6-5 vs Yankees, rays, and jays, impressive.
Agreed. Anderson has command and that's a big difference in the other young arms we've run out there. That change up of his is devastating and a great pitch to get lefties out and he used effectively against righties too. This team is scrappy and fights and they're never out of any game. Great bullpen, score a lot of late inning runs and can rip fastballs. To bad soroka went down. Soroka Fried and Anderson would be tough in a playoff format but the future looks bright.
