Good at bats by the Brewers today against a future HOF pitcher

[HarryDoyle]

That was a tip your cap moment for Acuna.

That was just a perfect throw.

To clarify, I didn't mean it was a bad decision by Lara, but I don't think it ever crossed his mind that he might get thrown out there. 

Ended up costing us a run which is a bummer. 

[dlk9s]

Depending on how the rest of the game goes, that throw could be a game saver for the Braves.

Have I missed major news? Please offer context or details? Is there an issue with the Dodgers finances I’m not aware of?

[owbc]

Well there's the answer to Acuña's play. Jesus.

Interesting … explain different launch angles … I agree on the other things you listed 

Sure, different launch angles is probably the wrong way for me to describe it because there’s not an enormous difference between launch angle from AAA to MLB. It’s more that an AAA hitter and MLB hitter can hit a ball with the same launch angle and the ball will get to the outfield much quicker with the same launch angle off the MLB bat, so that’s an adjustment for the outfielder. If that makes sense, 

[HarryDoyle]

Lara givith and Lara taketh away.

There’s a big thread about it on the main forum here describing it.

Saved a run the other way after the next batter’s double.

Not that Mitchell is bad or anything, but Lara really has to be in CF when he plays. Mitchell in right, start getting the reps in

[TURBO]

C'mon...  That was a nice catch, but he didn't have to leave his feet, and I'd bet that 99% of MLB center fielders make that catch.

Good job Luis, but it just wasn't as spectacular as BA and Rock think it is...

[edfunderburk]

Lara is not going back to Nashville to make room for Frelick. 

BTW … Is Ornelas still on the roster? I thought he would be DFA’d when Lockridge was sent out to AAA. 

[adambr2]

You’d really like to get Miz through the 6th. May and Gasser have really put a beating on the pen the last two games,

It's a scandal that the major news stations are as of now, ignoring.

It should be mainstream within a few days I'd hope...

Yeah he financing everything through a web of self-owned insurance companies. It's going to take a while to unwind it all.

99%???

 

I think you’ve officially entered “hater” territory. 

I am not sure Chourio makes that play, to be honest.

I totally forgot he is still around, and I’m not sure why he is.

.770 xBA

Mis wasn’t his sharpest but still 6 IP, 0 R against a good offensive team will work

I’d love to see a link to any news on this topic 

[wiguy94]

Misiorowski going 6 shutout on a day his command looked like this is pretty incredible

He will be sent down once Frelick comes back. They probably wanted to make sure Turang was healthy before they got rid of him

Ok, 95%?

Far from a hater, I love the kid!

That was a good catch, but not nearly as difficult as it's being portrayed.

Mitchell makes that catch too, and though you disagree, so does Chourio.
