7th inning behind, bats taking the rest of the day off, ready to catch the Charter to Denver. 4.5 back and only 4 up in the W/C

If it’s still a one run game in the top of the 9th, I hope Fredi uses Kimbrel instead of Linebrink, Gearrin or Proctor.

The Braves starters are showing signs of decline and the offense isn’t getting any better. Expect to be out of WC contention in 2 weeks.

back from the airshow and typical horrible use of the Pen again is gonna cost them. the same thing happened against the orioles. baltimore had a 3 run lead we take the lead and the next inning mr manager puts in proctor and walaa the orioles take the lead. and today. he leaves in sherrill to pitch to the bottom and espinosa comes up and one pitch gives them the lead back. sometimes u need to bring in your best pitchers earlier.. but no freddie cant do that.. once burnett had the lead back i said they arent scoring again. and here we are 5 outs away from yet another series loss to the average nationals. . Uggla swings at 2 balls not even close to being strikes . way to go Dan..

BJ Upton is beyond terrible. He’s no better than Jordan Schafer. Justin Upton, on the other hand, would be nice. Not gonna happen though.
Bravos just need to send D-Lowe somewhere and get some payroll flexibility. Get Bourn, Pence, Cuddyer, or whoever… J-Hey, McLouth, and Jordan aren’t cutting it in the outfield. If we do make the playoffs, can you imagine how terrible these guys are gonna look against the Giants or Phillies pitching staff?

Upton avg 245 15hrs and 45+rbi’s…yea a low average but very productive. Yes he is like Jordan, good speed good defense and young. BTW Jordan may not be the best but he is giving a 100%. He hustle and plays excellent D. I am not saying Jordan is the answer he isn’t but maybe he isn’t the problem because since Mclouth went out and Jordan started the team playing way over 500

Hinske Da Man

Sherrill pitched with a 1 run lead over O’ Flaherty, and Venters for what reason? This loss is squarely on the fat broad shoulders of Sherrill for being the useless pitcher that he is, and also Fredi Gonzalez for putting in a weak pitcher with such a small lead instead of the guys that have shut down hitters all year long.

How did Nate hit a home run? I didn’t think they allowed batting tees in regulation play.
