2021 Atlanta Braves Season Thread: spring training

[CheesePritchard]

Decline Flowers option, sign Grandal.

Camargo, Duvall optioned. Hechavarria signed, Wilson recalled.

Wow, thought Carmargo would be safe from moves this season.

Duvall has learned not to believe MapQuest; it is a long way from Gwinnett to Atlanta.

[KennyRogersRoast]

The SS defense has been so bad I understand the move. I still like Duvall and would like to see him on the postseason roster, assuming the Braves make it.

[DCDeac]

Nice. Braves aren't fucking around. Camargo earned this one, nice to see them jump on it.

[KennyRogersRoast]

Looks like Duvall will be back tomorrow.

Bullpen a damn joke

[nvadeac]

Can't Newcomb go the way of Minter? The guy sucks there's just no other way to say it. I can't recall a game this season where he came in and was actually decent. His 5 wins are all the result of the Braves scoring more than he gives up. Whatever he had last year it's truly gone now. He can't get through one inning without at least one walk, a hit and most times several of both. Why hasn't Touki come back up? For long relief he was our most effective arm. Newcomb is a total disaster every time he comes in. How long do you suffer with a guy like this?

[Turd Ferguson]

Problem is they are all disasters. Bullpen isn’t a joke. It’s the damn punchline you just wait for every game.

Is this post serious? He’s been one of our better relievers this season. Touki wasn’t good and minter was atrocious. Get a grip.

I guess you missed his 30 appearances in May/June/July where he pitched 35 innings w/ only 6 ER & 9 BB

Granted he has sucked in August

Odd takes to support keeping Camargo around and be done with Newcomb.

Yeah, bad hill to die on. Good win tonight.

Take series against Dodgers and only dropped one game in a week that Washington went 5 in 1

[WilmingtonDeac]

Pretty awesome weekend.

I almost felt sorry for Doolittle Saturday night. That inning looked like BP for the Brewers.

[WilmingtonDeac]

The Marlins can't get enough of beaning Acuna.

[ChrisL68]

Back up to 6 up on the Nats. Their last 25 games or so are really brutal.
