David Ross Delivers Walkoff Hit, Braves Beat Pirates 2-1
by TonyAlmeyda on Jul 27, 2011 11:18 PM EDT
in Braves Game Recaps
Email
PrintThe Braves are without their All-Star catcher, but that just gives David Ross more chances to be the hero.
Ross drove in both runs, including the walk-off hit in the 10th, and the Braves win in extra innings for the second straight night, beating the Pirates 2-1.
Jair Jurrjens was again denied his 13th win of the season and his offense didn't help him much. In three of the first five innings, the Braves put the leadoff hitter on base against Paul Maholm, but not once could they deliver a hit to score them. Maholm lasted seven innings, allowing nine hits and striking out eight; he did not walk a batter.
Jurrjens allowed a solo home run to Garrett Jones in the sixth, but his offense was finally able to string some hits together in the bottom of the inning. Singles from Martin Prado and Dan Uggla brought Ross to the plate and he delivered a game-tying single. Jurrjens also pitched seven innings, striking out four and allowing six hits; he walked three hitters.
The two teams traded outs for the next three innings and in the 10th, the Braves went to work against Chris Leroux. Nate McLouth and Freddie Freeman singled and Leroux intentionally walked Uggla to pitch to Ross. That turned out to be a bad idea when Ross hit the first pitch he saw to left field to score the game-winning run.
Scott Linebrink allowed a hit, but nothing else in the 10th for the win.

14 hits and only 2 runs
At least we got one when it counted

1-5 hitters went 12-23 While everyone else got 2 hits. Those two hits came from Alex Gonzalez, Replace the god awfulness of Lugo and Wilkin with Conrad and Heyward this game isnt even close

I just don't get how we aren't in for Bourn
the astros have Bourgouis and are actively trying to get rid of him. He is everything we need except being LH
enough rosterbation, this game was hard to watch, but good to see JJ stick it out and battle, and Ross is proving that the braves shouldn’t panic bc of the injury to Mac
Chopmaster: my link is my dad who has watched the braves since I don’t know. he’s 56.
The price on Pence is two of a team’s top 4 prospects plus a second-level prospect. Bourn probably as expensive or more.
Bourn is said to be almost half the price
Minor+Schafer could probably get it done (if he wasnt on the dl)
Chopmaster: my link is my dad who has watched the braves since I don’t know. he’s 56.
lol imo
get Bourn, and Burrel to be a rh bench bat
Chopmaster: my link is my dad who has watched the braves since I don’t know. he’s 56.
pat the bat might be getting waived here shortly
unless the giants plan on using 4 outfielders and only 3 on the infield
thats what i was thinking
Chopmaster: my link is my dad who has watched the braves since I don’t know. he’s 56.
I wasn't thinking platoon, i was thinking
sometimes vs LHP on days chip gets the day off
Chopmaster: my link is my dad who has watched the braves since I don’t know. he’s 56.
which i guess
is kinda the definition of platoon rofl
Chopmaster: my link is my dad who has watched the braves since I don’t know. he’s 56.
They’d probably do a Obey deal for Bourn..

I figured they were all nuts looking at a decently framed, 6’5 kid who slugged well in AAA at 20. He was showing power at that age, with that size, at that level? Yeah, he won’t ever show much power (makes crazy circles with finger by ear).

this scenario below is why most managers don't use their closer in a non-save situation on the road
Their team then gets a 1 run lead, only to turn around and have the next guy you bring in blow the game and give up 2. The manager would get crucified by traditionalists and the mainstream media. Even though mathematically, and according to the saber stats, you made the right move, according to the traditionalists, which still have a majority influence in the game, it was dumb and wrong. Most managers don’t answer to ultra-forward thinking guys, so they play it safe and do as others have before
Wait…in extra innings on the road if you give up anything the game is over.
by TBuzz on Jul 28, 2011 12:46 AM EDT via mobile up reply actions
I'm well aware
I’m not trying to argue this point, I’m saying that’s just what a lot of managers do. Clint Hurdle has done it the past 2 nights, Fredi has done it some as well. I remember Bobby running Jesse Chavez out against the Dodgers last year when he still had Wagner. Not saying it’s right, saying that’s the way its been done, and there are more traditionalists that the managers have to answer to, so that is why it continues to happen
OK I agree...
It’s pointless to judge a manager on his willingness to employ James-ian philosophies wholeheartedly when they’ve been conditioned otherwise…
by TBuzz on Jul 28, 2011 12:59 AM EDT via mobile up reply actions
There is a point to it if there are other managers in the league making the correct calls and using their assets in the best possible way. Teams that don’t adjust are losing an edge. What’s more important? Improving the chances of winning the game or avoid criticism for bucking the traditional wisdom?
I submit my earlier dilemma on the CarGo walkoff. Statistically made more sense to pitch to him, but we rip Fredi for the “don’t let their superstar” beat you BS.
It’s a result-oriented case. If Wigginton beats us he gets ripped for not doing the more probable play.

As a practical matter, every $300,000 does matter to a team with no payroll flexibility. For example, David Ross is signed for about $1.5m this year. Lugo and Nieves are going to make about 40% of Ross’ salary. The money is not fungible.
It’s not really an option though. The next best guy to bring up is most likely Matt Kennelly…who’s nowhere close to ready. Nieves is expendable at the end of the season, one of our prospects are not.
by TBuzz on Jul 28, 2011 12:56 AM EDT via mobile up reply actions
Yeah, how stupid does that bunt by Ross look now?
I mean, he drove in our first run in the exact same situation, when he wasn’t asked to bunt, and then of course drove in the winning run. Might be the best hitter in the line-up, and he’s asked to lay down a sacrifice.
Stupid.
My buddy and I just decided that the braves would be set if we could get Matt Kemp, Jose Reyes, and Albert Pujols.

In that situation, you feel that you want to get down a good sacrifice in order to move the runners. It worked out just like I and the coaches drew it up. You also really feel that Wilkin will come through there. He’s hit big time for us in big spots all season long. You really feel that the offense revolves around him.
I was a bit hand-cuffed tonight without our normal leadoff man. Even though he only has a .307 OBP it really feels like he is the catalyst to drive this offense. Not having him really hurt us tonight.
In that bunting situation though, you have two options – Option 1 – you can let your backup catcher try to hit, but let’s be honest here. He’s a backup catcher for a reason. If he were any good at hitting, he would be a starting catcher.
Your second option is to move BOTH runners into scoring position and play for one run. The way that JJ was just mowing through their line-up tonight, you really feel like one run would be enough. Ross did a great job of bunting there, especially considering that he probably isn’t very comfortable with the bat in his hands anyway, as he is a backup catcher. Wilkin just didn’t drive them in tonight – but he will tomorrow night when I have him leadoff and Alex Gonzalez hit 2nd. That man just knows how to hit!

BB: Why did I listen to that guy… They don’t call him Frediot for nothing
Disagree
Didn’t work, but it wasn’t a terrible time to send the runner there. A high-leverage situation, the Padres probably figured the pitcher would throw one in the dirt on the 0-2 count. If he does, they have a runner at 2B with one out with a chance of two batters driving him in instead of holding off on the steal until there were 2 outs.
Actually, having typed that I’m not even sure that makes sense….

The correct answer is Michael Ray Bourn, and he leads by quite a bit.
Since 2009, the fWAR leaders among center fielders:

and considering McCutcheon is shorted half of 2009 which would add some to his total, and we’re talking about his first 2 1/2 years while those guys were in their prime, I think that speaks pretty highly of him. Jurrjens, Kimbrel, Delgado, Oberholtzer. He’d be worth it.

Since 2009?
Bourn may be up there.
Kemp and Ellsbury have had down years. Granderson is overrated to me. Josh Hamilton hasn’t really been a CF for a while.
Andrew McCutcheon came up in 2009, I might go with him. There really has been a lot of lackluster stars at that position with no sustained success story. Rasmus, Rios, Adam Jones, BJ Upton, Chris Young, Grady Sizemore, all have their pluses, but all have had some severe down spells and showed significant flaws too.
Yeah, give me McCutcheon for best/most valuable CF since 09
