@BeaneaterB @ZacharyFast2 Whatever. Good day.

@Ahi_smith10 @ZacharyFast2 Good. I am. Which is why I said this was a waste of time man.

Striders fastball isnt on today and he’s still getting lots of whiffs and Ks on secondarys. THIS IS A DIFFERENT PITCHER

@BeaneaterB @ZacharyFast2 Whatever. I’m not optimistic about him. So far.

@Ahi_smith10 @ZacharyFast2 None of us have yet seen what he’s going to be this year. Judging his stuff on a Coors start is just dumb.

@BeaneaterB @ZacharyFast2 Certainly not this year. Lol it just started

@BeaneaterB @ZacharyFast2 Like when he has been on the field lately he hasn’t been ace level strider and you know it.

@BeaneaterB @ZacharyFast2 I’m going off what I’ve seen lately. Not just today’s start.

@BeaneaterB @ZacharyFast2 Whatever. I don’t expect him to be an elite pitcher again and I’m not going to apologize for that.

How could anyone love what they’re seeing today? Lmfao. I’m sorry your understanding is surface level man. But some of us having a deeper understanding of what he is struggling with today and why. And we have plenty of recent data to compare it to and see what the difference is. Sorry, I wanted to avoid telling you that you just don’t understand the situation. But you like to talk shit for whatever reason.

@BeaneaterB @ZacharyFast2 You’re loving what you are seeing from strider. I absolutely am not. Leave it at that

@Ahi_smith10 @ZacharyFast2 “No, you’re not firing me. I quit.” Okay man.

@BeaneaterB @ZacharyFast2 Idk why I even commented here. You’re never not a waste of time.

@Ahi_smith10 @ZacharyFast2 You’re not hearing anything from me now man. I just told you you’re not worth my time.

@BeaneaterB @ZacharyFast2 If he pitches like this the next month or two and isn’t still right. I don’t wanna hear shit from you.

@Ahi_smith10 @ZacharyFast2 I’m not wasting my time with this conversation man.

@BeaneaterB @ZacharyFast2 Idc. He’s hasn’t been the same pitcher in long while now. If he can’t get his fastball back to where it needs to be than he’s just average pitcher like Lopez and Holmes.

@Ahi_smith10 @ZacharyFast2 It’s Coors.

@BeaneaterB @ZacharyFast2 He’s at 55 pitches through 2 innings and 4 walks. Yeah that’s ace stuff.

@ZacharyFast2 Wait til his next start.

@AngelicNghtmare Alrighty then

@BeaneaterB @_CokeHeads If you say so

I disagree. And I’m not going to criticize him for being asked to be a starter and giving it everything he’s got. But he’s still an above average pitcher. He just should be in the pen. You don’t need to try to make him into some unplayable player just because you’re unhappy with the way he’s being used. And fwiw, Alex had said that Holmes would eventually be pushed out of the rotation. But then 4 of our SP got hurt during ST.

No he's just a dogshit pitcher

@BeaneaterB @_CokeHeads lol you refuse to to criticize a player which is fine but no player is above criticism. And no one is shitting on him. Hes just average pitcher whose replaceable

@Ahi_smith10 @_CokeHeads I don’t “refuse to see” anything. I just don’t overreact and make ridiculous statements. I agree that he should be moved to the pen. But I can say that without shitting on the dude.

@BeaneaterB @_CokeHeads Yes it is but you refuse to see it. Dude hasn’t been that good since coming back. Hes better off in the bullpen or in someone else’s rotation. Lol

@_CokeHeads Well, that just isn’t true.

@ChippersDipCan @BeaneaterB Yelp.

@BeaneaterB Or maybe he’s just not that good? God you’re inability to criticize is nauseating

Man, Grant has nothing right now. I’m assuming that the altitude is fucking with him.

@grantmcauley Looks like braves need another starter or two. Wow. Who saw that coming. lol

This ain't the 2025 Rockies.

@reigns_era Heel Roman vs face Seth. I’m in

This is a MANIA LEVEL MATCH.

@BeaneaterB I get because of contact bummer is probably staying but that dude sucks. As long as you keep him out of high leverage situations fine. But I’d rather he’s be cut. He’s not worth it

IMO, the Braves will be fine bullpen wise. But here’s what I would do. Get Iggy back. Move Perez to the pen. Keep Didier down there for a while. DFA Payamps DFA Suarez Make a decision when Dodd is ready to return. This would be your pen. Iggy Suarez Lee Kinley Reynaldo Fuentes Bummer Perez

@grantmcauley @DuckzSzn I wouldn’t go that far either but clearly he’s not good right now. Drop him to the 9 spot or just bench him a few days. Clearly he’s needs. Break.

@DuckzSzn Long time between now and then, but I wouldn't hold your breath for a trade regardless.

Thought about this all week.
