“That’s the difference between the Yankees and the Braves. Their manager will do something to put pressure on the opposing team like double steal in that situation.”
Damn Right!

That’s why ARod is gonna be a HOF’er, steroids or not…when good hitters struggle, they get back to basics. Hasn’t been trying to do too much, and he’s absolutely sticking it to us….damn it all.

LAst night some people were talking about some yankee players that were smooth like Jeter, Rivera, and posada. I like some of there players, but is it me or the home grown players seem like good guys. It’s the FA signees that jump out as the biggest pricks. Namely Swisher. I wouldn’t have that ARSE ina Braves jersey.

See i told you Escobrat was just padding his stats in a losing cause. That’s what all the experts on this board claimed every time Tex drove in runs in a losing game no matter what the situation was. What was good for the ram should be good for the wool-gatherer. Trade him for a prospect with a decent attitude. Hurt, ny butt. He’s a certified flake.

The Braves are going to have to start giving away tickets if they want anyone to show up for what they call a game.. It’s amazing that other teams steal bases all the time yet we hardly ever see a Braves player attempting a steal.. I like Bobby Cox and what he has done for the Braves over the years, but he has wore out his welcome IMO.. He needs to realize that he is handicapping this team and step down..
He is getting out coached again, and it is hurting our team badly.. Its getting to the point that I don’t even want to watch their games anymore, and that is bad considering I have been a Braves fan for over 20 years..

Well, definately need a good start by JJ tomorrow. Lowe really didn’t give us anything tonight after KK had to leave early for injury. 6 runs so far. Usually good enough for a win for us.

We’ll need a good 9 innings from JJ if we expect him to win. And maybe an RBI or 2 also.

Tomahawkin, Chipper is old. He swung and missed a high fastball that couldn’t have been more 85 mph. He is fighting it.

I want to see one of those Home Depot questions be, “Why is Chip Carey a douche, and why is Bobby still a MLB manager when he should be in a nursing home? THANKS GUYS!” Now that would be a real Home Depot question of the game!

The lack of HR power is really starting to show. That big inning ATL had should have tied the score at least. The bottom of the line up got everything started, and then Chip and BMac did absolutely nothing to get runners home.

This inning was brought to by the aggressiveness of the Yankees on the base paths. Every move made by Bobby was in response to the first move that Joe made in sending both runners. He acted. We had to react which seemingly is the way it is all the time especially the way it used to be in the postseason

“At least the Phils/Mets are losing…”
Does it really even matter if we’re always losing?
Hello,by the looks of it our Braves won’t see .500 for the rest of the season…and our incompetent GM will probably give yet another year to our incompetent manager…

I kind of think that Chipper may have given up on the nonperformers.

After The Phillies series we will find out if this team is done…It’s Look like we are about to sink heading into the weekend
D.O.B. Says they are still in it and can make a run…But face it This Isn’t the 93 Braves…This team has Piss Poor defense (Mentally and Physically) An Inconsistant offense for 3 years running, No Speed Game at all over the last three years…And Furthermore No heart!
