THANK YOU JESUS. He is so terrible.

BUT these guys are just as terrible. I don't get calling up these bad bats.

I was hoping to see Ruiz soon.

Well that's disappointing. Saw callups, got excited for all y'all, saw names, puked.

No one to get excited about in Gwinnett except that left side of the infield.

I think Ruiz could be a couple months away if he continues raking. I really hope we don't rush Albies.

He's been a singles machine for sure. Not sure if raking is the term I'd use though.

Ender + Brignac + Freeman + Garcia = much runs

Now, if we can just get Daniel Castro and his .228/.267/.246 out of the 2 hole.

I swear this is not meant to be a shot at you.
You guys shouldn't want to have anything to do with Ruiz coming up. for that matter, leave all of your good talent down there. let them mature and take advantage of another year of control beginning next season. The Braves are on track for a beautiful rebuild. just be patient.

I'm well aware of how a rebuild works. Thanks

I'm patient enough that I am fine with not rushing our elite talent. However, I don't think he is one of our elite guys on the farm. He is hitting the ball well at AAA right now. I'd let him come up as soon as he gains the extra year of service to see what he can do. We have a huge hole at 3B right now.

Not just cheapies either, every home run off Folty was an absolute bomb. Even Colon's foul ball was crushed.

The little bit of hope we had... is no longer hope.
