I actually looked it up. As starters go with at least 3 starts, looks like he's the only one! 0.98 ERA, 1.01 WHIP Edited May 20, 2019 by ATL Fan in the DMV Malachore 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

007dawg Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 I'd love to get the sweep, but will gladly take 3 out of 4. If memory serves, we haven't played them well out there recently. Looks like we were 3-3 head to head against them in 2018 and 4-3 in 2017. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unknøwn Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 Braves are 7-2 since Snitker put Acuna at leadoff. Overall the Braves are 43-31 in games with Acuna at #1. Drew4719, jidady and Falconsfan567 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

E. T. Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 Hostile environment up there in SF. I say we keep our aggressive approach going and we take 3 of 4! Go Bravos! ATL Fan in the DMV and Drew4719 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malachore Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 Braves traded Viz and Biddle to Mariners for Anthony Swarzak and cash. Not sure how this helps the team at all, dude has been bad the past 2 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They get a free look at a guy who's actually able to pitch for the Braves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be, and if he is, you can cut bait with him for what you were paying Biddle and Vizcaino. I do think his numbers are a little inflated, as he had a rough 3 outing stretch against CLE, NYY and BOS (all on the road) where he allowed 5 ER in 2 1/3 IP and gave up 7 hits, 2 HR and 3 walks. For comparison's sake, in all of his other outings, he's given up a total of 3 ER in 11 1/3 IP with 7 hits, 4 HRs, 5BB and struck out 15.

You mean there might be a chance that he might actually be decent for the Braves? You don't say!! We're not allowed to look at things in a positive manner!!

Falconsfan567 Posted May 20, 2019 Author Share Posted May 20, 2019 In his last full, healthy season in 2017, however, Swarzak turned in 77 1/3 innings with a 2.33 ERA, 10.6 K/9, 2.1 BB/9, 0.70 HR/9 and a 43.9 percent grounder rate between the White Sox and Brewers.

Unknøwn Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 If it makes you feel better just look at what Kranitz did with Luke Jackson. His slider became deadly. Swarzak throws a slider as his out pitch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
