Outside of a pitcher and Ross, there was no one else available to hit who is supposedly available tonight except for Norton, folks. Or would you rather have Ross or a pitcher PH so you can nail Cox for that?

Braves lose again in the bottom of the ninth. Go figure! See you guys next year.

I hope this doesn’t come down to needing a call on check swing third strike by a lefthanded batter. We won’t get any favors from Mr. (adult film) Stache.

I hate Kelly Johnson’s guts.

I hate him. I don’t care about his hitting, he’s an error waiting to happen.

His defense is the problem. I could care less about whether or not he strikes out ten times in two days.

Blame it all on Kelly for all I care.

unbelievable!

Huh? diory and norton strike out in the ninth of a tie game while brooks and hayward are in the minors… Time to sell!! and kj makes an error… this is why the Braves suck!

For the record, (you know… since I’m clueless?), if the Braves lose tonight (and they will because of KJ’s and Diory’s defense), they will be 6-6 in Javier’s starts following a loss.

What a “stopper”. Where can we find another. I’m sure Ozzie Guillen would LOVE to have him back (eyes rolling).

Marc from FL

And later Paul will reflect on this and blame it on Moylan. Well I don’t know, he hates KJ enough to maybe keep this one on his shoulders.

we bench prado for that garbage….. bobby cox needs to go as well does frank wren.. im sick of watching kelly johnson just screw up every routine play . that should of been an inning ending double play. they get NO ONE…

Paul Lentz

Now, that is why I am SO DOWN on Kelly Johnson. Talk about “streaky”……….dude goes from starting his return to the Majors with a 5 for 6 streak………to 0 for 4 tonight with a potentially costly error. From an inning ending double play to perhaps a loss?

njbraves……..I dont see you. What do you have to say about Kelly now?

The good news is that Number 2 will be gone soon its funny that his number is 2 because he plays like someone just went number 2.

we are done. moylan has met his quota on ground balls per inning. all thats left are walks and deep shots to the gap.

Kelly Johnson

July 30th, 2009
10:01 pm

OK, Peter, we liked that ground ball. Now do it again. We promise we won’t screw up this time.

people please…. This is the reason that the ATL is known as one of the worst sports towns in the country… No need to bash.. FW has done well so far. I mean in May, did any of you actually look at this roster and say, we got a damn good team. Probably not. We are where we should be in the standings with this roster. Just look what KJ just did as I type this.. This is not a contending roster. Simple as that. With all that said, this is my team and I’ll continue to root for them no matter how atrocious they play.

Kelly Johnson is a good guy and is talented, but I still think he’s pressing and needs a fresh start just as Francoeur apparently needed.

My bad, guys!!!! They got help from our stellar 2nd baseman. Thanks Kelly! 0′fer at the plate and an 0′fer in the field

I’m not going to say that I would have made that play.

I’ll say that I would have done the exact same thing, because I would have been scared and I would have rushed it and probably screwed it up too. Only I don’t make a million dollars a year and go to Italy with my wife… in October.

If we can’t win when we give them thirteen outs in an inning, well I don’t know what.
