Just checking in as I run around this beautiful Sunday afternoon to see how the guys are doing…and not so good. Guess it was a good choice for me to skip watching this game to get errands done. As always I hope I’m wrong and I’ll be missing a great comeback vs. a loss.
Frank Wren in the Box saying to hmself, “we don’t need another hitter, let’s just count on Brian McCann hitting three run homers against pitchers like Lincecum and Halladay…EVERY GAME.
Thank Schafer for some of this. I really like the kid even though, like a lot say, he’s nothing special. But to me he’s good enough and we’ve been winning a lot with him on the team.
Don’t think my last one went through, but just saying Schafer is a decent little spark plug. He helped this inning along. Swiping bases and legging out IF stuff. I’d almost hate to see him dealt because we’ve been winning a lot since he’s been with the team.
McLost is back to pulling ANY and EVERYTHING again. And he K’s . Mercy
LAG…yeah, seems obvious that the major “Dip” in his swing causes him spring out of his swing causing him to swing over the top. I can only assume he has been told but refuses to make an adjustment.
Steve from OH, I’d like to get him locked up. Mac that is. Some sort of deal that removes the club option. Him and Prado. I’d bet they could get Prado to sign for a reasonable deal that would benefit the Braves too.

My opinions on Heyward based on his play to date are accurate.
Sort of like saying after Fredericksburg that your opinions on the Civil War to date are accurate?
True, but not yet the whole story.

That’s the one guy on this team that actually performs up to expectation offensively on a consistent basis and at times even goes beyond that.
He’s the reason we are where we are.
If we had a few more like Brian McCann we might be in first place.
