You know…Nate does lead our team in homers now…BUT since he can steal he SHOULD hit lead off.

With Escobar hitting 2nd, and prone to hitting DP’s it’s a win win situation.

Twenty one straight innings. I’ve had enough. I know it’s still early but this team is going nowhere but down. It’s time to start trading a bunch of players. Trade Vasquez and Francouer to Brewers for Gamel & Parra. Don’t stop there. Let Soriano & Gonzales go. Also, Escobar and more. These pitchers think they have to pitch a shut out to win. They are under alot of pressure. Why not bring Freeman up for a little spring training.

RHR, Cabravesfan – there is more anonymity in the midst of a disastrous game, because no on is paying attention to anything other than the pain and misery we are suffering. (Apparently, Mike Cameron is also suffering pain and misery).

got to give to the brewers players, at least they have passion. if that was a braves player striking out, they would have walked back to the dugout with their tail between their legs.

If the Braves’ recent history is any indicator, we’ll score 15 tomorrow, 23 on Monday…then go back to 1’s and 0’s for about a week.

Until the Braves score a run, I think EVERY Braves hitter should step up to the plate with circus music as their entrance music.

Mike Cameron is always sufering pain and misery…and according to my well placed source at the game, his kid is in the dugout tonight- way to make a lasting impression Dad!

I agree 2249, I’d like to see Bobby try a lineup with him at leadoff at least once. Kelly is HORRIBLE there. Why does every Braves fan in the world see that but Bobby doesnt? Even Prado would be a better choice, or Yunel.

Want to know something sad, Bill Hall is batting .211 for Milwaukee, with 4 homeruns, which would make him a batting leader on the Braves.

Kelly Johnson, .244

four players hitting .251 or under. That’s too bad, because our pitchers have been keeping us in games…

Needless to say, I’ll be watching the debut of Hanson tomorrow. Right now though, I have to hope that he allows no runs at all so that when he leaves, he won’t get his first major league loss.
