With his tough workout program he prevented any of them from breaking down. After he left Smoltz and Glavine developed arm problems because they stopped using his workout programs…cow

facts matter for so little here. …

Welcome to .500 after tonight, folks!

It totally speaks to the negative vibe on the blog that when I first read this I got all angry and wanted to yell at Jason for saying we were going to lose before the game has even started. Then I realized we are currently 3-4 and it was actually an encouraging and positive post… :D

Well, I can’t really reveal my list without risking hurting people’s feelings (because I know everyone wants me to love them! ;) ) but I think it’s safe to say that if I am friends with you in real life, I probably <3 you on the blog…

This Dish info channel says that they reached an agreement but because Peachtree is demanding that the fees be paid even if sports programming is dropped. They say, “such as Atlanta Braves”. Like Peachtree is not going to carry those when the agreement lasts a quarter century. SMH.

JUST GET THE DEAL DONE ALREADY FOR CRYING OUTLOUD.

We got there early enough to sense an electricity in the air…with abundant tomahawks {sponge-type} adorning the landscape…it really was ‘Braves country,’ and, hopefully this enthusiasm will follow our team tonight. Go Braves!

According to DOB, the Red jerseys will now be worn on Fridays (or some Fridays. Don’t know exactly which, but they will be used…)

hey O’brien, give Pastornicky a freakin Break! He has Not Only Handled Shorstop quite Admirably, his Offense has been a Plus as Well. YOU Must’ve been the one Holding up all the Concession Lines, because it looks like you weren’t Watching the GAME. Give Francisco more than one game.. he can only improve with more playing time.

Hey good folks. I was out of pocket yesterday. Got home around midnight and checked the score.
Good win.

I thought they were going to wear the throw-backs on Sunday?

Don’t matter. Atleast it isn’t those red tops.

Where’s my buddy Murph?

Ward – I know he’s out there, but the Braves don’t need to mess with Roy O.

@bravesgrl4life….It seemed similar to an SEC football game in terms of crowd noise and fans reacting immediately and in almost 100% unison when the Bravos produced–also, a certain player for Milwaukee received more than a few ‘boos’ when he stood at the plate…..great crowd overall !

Seeing Juan Francisco in the starting line up at 3rd base is a discouraging sign. The infield defense goes from horrendous to ghastly with him at the hot corner.

I got nervous when I saw that groundball heading toward Francisco at third base, but he made a nice play. Minor did a nice job ensuring that no trouble came from the leadoff walk and base hit.

I don’t know if this was posted, but D. Lowe is 2-0 and has gone at least 6 innings in both of his wins. He gave up no earned runs in his first start of 7 innings and gave up three runs last night in 6+ innings.
Braves starters need to step it up. A few early runs and some breaks would really help out.
Need decent D from 3rd tonight. Can not live with the 3 errors.

When the Braves hire him he had a loosing record. His tru form came threw last year when he let the team choke at the end of the season. He was riding the coat tales of Bobby Cox and it is aparent his luck has runned out.

Freeman takes half swings sometimes. its ok to be critical. I dont drink kool aid like you. I let my eyes tell me the story.
