🇵🇷Subriel Matias/John Gil truther

@gvedak The Braves pitching development personnel is so disrespected. I couldn't believe that front office poll that came out during spring training where they were ranked very poorly at developing pitching. I don't know who they polled.

Make that four strikeouts in 2 innings for Didier Fuentes. Paints 99 again

@snboxing Southpaw that fought with his hands down, I can see it. Slow as molasses, poor feet, not wearing a knee brace, WTF was he thinking?!

A broadcaster whom we won’t name compared Proksa to Sergio Martinez early in the fight. I literally laughed out loud.

@gvedak Great perspective! I've done it in the past. "Imagine if we had given Derían Cruz's bonus to Juan Soto." There's a lot more that goes into a J2 signing than just $, like team/scouts relationships with the baseball academies & agents. He's still young and hopefully can recover

Save your theatrics and words for yourself (I’ve seen multiple people call him overrated, a bust, waste of money). He’s 19 years old. He’s worked very hard and will have another setback. There’s nobody more devastated than him

Perdomo fell coming out of the box and tweaked his knee. Will now miss the season. Truly devastating injury

@CrosbyBaseball Jeremy Reyes, probably our most underrated pitching prospect IMO. Augusta and Rome lineups are so much fun to watch, I find myself going back and forth between both games.

Atlanta's organizational starters for Wednesday, April 8th: MLB: Grant Holmes (4:07 PM ET) AAA: Didier Fuentes (6:35 PM ET) AA: Herick Hernandez (12:00 PM ET) A+: Jeremy Reyes (7:35 PM ET) A: Derek Vartanian *PROFESSIONAL DEBUT* (7:05 PM ET)

@gvedak I've liked what I've seen as well. IMO once the Braves can get him to spread out his stance a bit more to reduce a bit of the movement in his load, some of those foul balls will be going for XBH.

Conor Essenburg saw a team high 32 pitches Went 3-for-6 with 2 walks Had exit velocities of 106, and 110 MPH. He's my early star for the season. Well ahead of where I expected him to be at this point of his career. Recognizes breaking pitches and doesn't expand. Great power.

@gvedak Exactly. Also, Riley missed tackling Soler. He can't even do that right.

What the hell is Reynaldo supposed to do????? Get punched???

@LethalPlatypus1 Everyone in the system is stealing bases tonight. Gil has three and Guanipa has three or four. Might see Olson swipe one tonight.

Rowdy Tellez - Known base swiper

@gvedak Any word on the severity of Perdomo's injury?

Luis Guanipa goes the other way for an RBI single. Now hitting .500 with a 1.200 OPS

@MattPowers31 Yeah I've read your writings on the TCU OFer. Seems like a great pick too. Has Lombard ease some of the hit tool concerns he had or you're not concerned about it?

@eramospr I like him a lot, but at same time don’t think I’d be too disappointed if he was gone because I’m expecting us to be able to get a similar tier of player at 9. To me after Roch and Emerson, a lot of the next 7 are pretty interchangeable(LeBron, Stro, Vahn, Gracia, Flora, Lombard)

A new MLB Draft mock draft simulator is out. I gave it a first run for the Braves picks, and this is how it went overslotbaseball.com/my-mock-draft/ I’d be pretty happy with this draft if the Braves did this. Going slot on Flora and $1.3M over on Gridlinger limited $, but 11 solid picks

@n_adcock_howeth Any word on Perdomo's injury?

Casually 431 ft and over 108 mph off the bat…

@gvedak Two straight days without John Gil or Isiah Drake AB's, saaaaad!

Seeing all these new Braves milb accounts :'). Welcome!

@weaver_cards But AA needed to get fired for not giving an over the hill SP like Giolito $20M, according to many in this app😂

Since 2010 only 3 teams have started the first 8 games of the season giving up 14 or fewer runs: 2019 Tampa Bay Rays 2025 San Diego Padres 2026 Atlanta Braves The pitching staff is holding it down🔥

@weaver_cards He sure let it rip on that 2-1 pitch I believe was the count. He showed good patience on that last AB too, didn't chase.

Connor Essenburg does NOT get cheated when he swings the bat. My goodness that’s some bat speed

@CrosbyBaseball Looks like the 2027 J2 class will be Alfredo Sena and a bunch of 10K signees.

Former top ten-ish prospect of the Angels who was a 6th-rounder in 2022 out of Oklahoma State. Mid-90s fastball with a slider, sweeper, changeup, and a splitter. Extremely East-and-West attack profile on a pitch plot. Has 25.1 career MLB innings with 22 Ks

@gvedak @JATmallet Looked like Carey and Hartman also hit the ball really hard but right at the RF during their 1st ABs.

@JATmallet If I had to guess I'd put it 105. Can't wait to find out tomorrow

John. Gil. 3 run homer Rome Emperors take the lead

@MattPowers31 @gvedak Great work as usual!!!

@gvedak The first high school prospect update is going to be dropping next week as well

ICYMI @MattPowers31 gave us an update on how some of the premier college players are performing so far this season as we hit the midpoint in the college season batterypower.com/mlb-draft/1281…

@moreno_javierm @CLE_RichSports @podoffame @baseball_ref Again, wins haven't been a measuring factor in wether a SP is good or not for 10-15years. Is it Sales's fault if he doesn't get run support?

@eramospr @CLE_RichSports @podoffame @baseball_ref I really haven't seen MLB pitchers getting into the HOF with 150 wins. Have you? If so, Guidry would be in there.

Yesterday was a big day. Chris Sale made his 314th career start, matching Sandy Koufax’s career total. Now I would personally never pick Sale over Koufax, but if I was going to make a case for Sale to end up in Cooperstown, I would start here.

@moreno_javierm @CLE_RichSports @podoffame @baseball_ref Lol W's are a team stat. Sale played on some bad White Sox teams

@CLE_RichSports @podoffame @baseball_ref Sale has 100 less wins and he doesn't have 3000 SO.

Looks like one of the Braves' top prospects, John Gil will start the season at High-A Rome #Baseball #Braves #Prospecr
