Chipper has always been a klutz at third. about as much range as McFatty would have over thar

After avoiding most teams’ best starting pitchers recently (Dodgers and Dbacks series), it’s only fitting that we get to face Samardzija and Dempster back-to-back. Baseball has a way of balancing itself out.
Good poke, Bourn.

nolie, I’ll pat my shoulder and say that’s exactly what I’ve been saying about Medlen in the pen since they said he’d be in there. Like you, my shoulder often hurts from all the patting.

Hit it to CJ and most times he’ll get you. Very good, accurate arm and makes that play on the bunt as good as anybody, even now.

Still remember Kerry Wood sticking it to the Braves in the playoffs.
Would be nice to see the Braves set him with the L in this one. Small redemption.

Dan Uggla carries his juicer with him wherever he goes. OJ in the morning gives you a little pep in your step. On the road, prune juice helps keep the line moving.
