Simmons Stays Hot And La Stella Returns in
Monday's Atlanta Braves Minor League Action

post from Talking Chop on 24 April 2012 04:02:14 AM. © Talking Chop

Tommy La Stella had a two hit day in his return from a minor back injury.

Andrelton Simmons stayed hot, Tommy La Stella had a nice return from a minor back injury, and David Hale and Cody Martin had forgettable starts in a light day of Braves action.

Gwinnett Braves - Off

Tim Hudson is scheduled to make his 4th rehab start Tuesday against the Charlotte Knights.

Mississippi Braves 2, Birmingham Barons 7

Andrelton Simmons SS 2-4, 2B, RBI, BB, .268 AVG
Phil Gosselin 2B 1-3, RBI, 2 BB, .279 AVG
Barrett Kleinknecht 3B 1-2, 2B, 2 BB, .159 AVG
David Hale 5.2 IP, 7 ER, 9 H, 2 BB, 4 K, 5.75 ERA
Richard Sullivan 2.1 IP, 0 R, 1 H, 0 BB, 3 K, 7.00 ERA

In his last 2 starts, David Hale struck out 11 over 13 innings, allowing just 1 unearned run, but tonight he allowed 7 earned runs in 5.2 innings, picking up his second loss of the year. Hale's entire career has been marked by inconsistencies, by wild hot and cold streaks, and if he's ever to harness his immense potential he's going to have to find a way to be more consistent with his results. Richard Sullivan had his first scoreless appearance this season, striking out 3 over 2.1 innings after allowing 7 earned runs in his first 7 innings. Andrelton Simmons had his second straight 2 hit day, and after suffering through a 1-21 stretch, he's gone 5-13 with 2 doubles, 5 RBI and a walk in his last 3 games.

Chris Master will take on the Barons tomorrow.

Lynchburg Hillcats 4, Carolina Mudcats 5

Tommy La Stella 2-4, 2B, BB, SB (3), .359 AVG
Edward Salcedo 3B 2-5, RBI, .322 AVG
Chris Garcia 1B 1-3, RBI, 2 BB, .300 AVG
Ryan Query DH 2-4, 2B, HR (1), 2 RBI, BB, .400 AVG
Cody Martin 4.1 IP, 5 ER, 7 H, 6 BB, 6 K, 4.11 ERA
Andrew Wilson 2.2 IP, 0 R, 1 H, 0 BB, 3 K, 3.72 ERA
Ryan Weber 1 IP, 0 R, 0 H, 0 BB, 1 K, 2.25 ERA

Tommy La Stella had a nice return after missing a few days with a minor back twinge, and a few days of rainouts, with a 2 hit day that included a double and his 3rd stolen base of the season. Edward Salcedo drove in a run as part of a 2 hit day, and in his last 7 games he's gone 11-31 with 4 doubles, 2 homers, and 6 RBI. Ryan Query had just 1 at bat coming into today, but made the most of his start, with a double, a homer, and a walk. The 24 year old catcher, who left a job as a college coach to sign with the Braves as a Minor League free agent, has a .250 average and a .773 OPS in only 218 plate appearances is just over 2 years as a pro. Cody Martin only allowed 3 walks in 10 innings in his first 2 starts, but today he allowed 6 in 4.1 innings, giving up 5 earned runs in the process. He also managed to strike out 6, giving him 20 whiffs in 15.1 innings this season.

Gus Schlosser is scheduled to start against the Mudcats on Tuesday.

Rome Braves - Off

AJ Holland is scheduled to start on Tuesday as the R-Braves begin a series against the Hagerstown Suns.

Jair Jurrjens optioned to Gwinnett

I'm sure we'll hear plenty more about this move on Tuesday -- the players had already left the clubhouse by the time the news became public -- but this is certainly a bold statement from the Braves.

Best of luck getting things figured out, JJ.

Dodgers Remain Undeafeated At Home, Braves Fall
7-2

post from Talking Chop on 24 April 2012 03:01:33 AM. © Talking Chop

The struggles for Jair Jurrjens continued and the Dodgers set a season high in hits, improving their home record to 7-0 with a 7-2 win over the Braves.

Jurrjens's troubles were twofold: his pitches had very little movement and he got singled to death, starting in the first inning when a looping single by Andre Ethier gave the Dodgers an early 1-0 lead.

David Ross hit a second inning home run to tie the game, but the Dodgers went right back to work in the bottom of the inning, plating two more runs with hits from Juan Uribe and A.J. Ellis.

The Braves blew a golden scoring opportunity in the first, loading the bases against Chris Capuano with two outs. Their next chance came in the fourth with two on and one out and Jurrjens, despite struggling through three innings, was kept in the game to hit. In hindsight, this may not have been the best idea as Dodgers hitters continued to peck away at Jurrjens with ease, hitting three straight singles to open the bottom of the fourth inning, increasing their lead to 4-1. That meant the end of the day for Jurrjens: he allowed five runs on nine hits in three innings without a strikeout.

Livan Hernandez entered at that point and held the Dodgers scoreless for four innings, limiting them to two hits; both hits came in the fifth inning and resulted in one of the more unconventional double plays. Matt Kemp led off with a single and then tried to score from first on a hit-and-run single by Andre Ethier. Kemp was thrown out at the plate and then David Ross picks off Ethier at first base.

The David Ross home run was the only run the Braves could muster against Capuano in seven innings despite his four walks and six hits allowed. Of L.A.'s 15 hits, 14 were singles.

Dan Uggla smacked his third home run of the season in the eighth, but the Dodgers tacked on two more runs in their half off Livan Hernandez, courtesy of Juan Uribe's fourth hit of the game to seal the win. Uribe had three RBI in the game.

LOS ANGELES (AP) In a season full of disappointments, Juan Uribe was undoubtedly the biggest for the Los Angeles Dodgers last year – at least on the field. And no one in their clubhouse has more incentive this time around than he does.
