capologist 13,660 Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 I think this series was a real confidence booster and it was a blast to watch it... Falconsfan567 and jidady 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Falconsfan567 35,212 Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 As DOB pointed out, first Braves 3-0 start since.... 2007. They swept the Phillies to start the year. Phillies went on to win their first NL East title.Then the Braves went home and got blasted by the Mets 11-1. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Unknøwn 13,294 Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 Not too bad of a lineup. Very interested to see how Folty does. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Falconsfan567 35,212 Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 I like it. Braves all through the minors should post good seasons as teams. Might even slip up and win a championship or two. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ransack 3,292 Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 Here's the line-up for tonight's AAA Gwinnett opener.1. Cunningham CF2. Peraza 2B3. E. Perez RF4. Ciriaco 3B5. Hunter DH6. Benson LF7. Reyes SS8. Kazmar 1B9. Schlehuber CFoltynewicz SPA much more intriguing lineup than in past years. Interesting that Cunningham is leading off rather than Peraza.

Guest Homer the Brave Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 The only stat more useless is pitcher wins.It is not more useless, but it is not a true indicator of a pitchers worth. Shouldn't it just be ERA?Taking it further, with apologies to Don Sutton, I think Quality Starts is a better measure of a starting pitcher. It shows no favor to a pitcher who is backed by good hitting. The run support a pitcher gets should never figure in to a pitcher's value. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
