Two walks, no K's, no easy first pitch outs, and smart baserunning put them in a position to benefit from BABIP luck in the first place. Taking advantage of the opportunities presented to you is good strategy. 

"Luck" is preparation meeting opportunity.

Was hoping maybe Stassi could be flipped but f*** it, whatever.

Most of the time guys I talked about being flipped among the position players was Moncada and Eloy. Usually it was the pitchers I thought could be flipped if any of them can stand out.

Stassi was a decent starting catcher before he had his personal absence and injury issues. Figured maybe he'd have put them behind him but from what has been described here he looks rusty, at best. Atlanta has some of the best scouts in baseball, they probably knew he was toast.

Atlanta had him for less than 24 hours. Did they scout him taking his kid to the hospital? 

I'm guessing he's in great shape, and there were fist fights in the Braves front office once the trade was announced.

Was just watching Freeman hit against Touki and thinking Touki is just the kind of guy Freeman should crush but he swung through 2 pitches. Starting thinking maybe he'll make one of those 7 out of 10 outs .300 hitters make. Count went to 3-2 then he hit a granny ?

I think I had the same thought process!
