Just get out of the inning with the lead. Captain K will take care of the rest.

Going to the 9th with the lead…that’s a good thing!

We might be getting a top RP somewhere before all is said and done. Everybody as been average or below other than Kimbrel.

Losing Furcal is still hurting the Braves.

Nice job, EOF?

@cabravesfan…How you doing tonight? Tough one fro Huddy, but Braves win will be soothing.

I was screaming for Durbin’s head after the first couple of weeks of the season. He was pathetic! He was a rally for the opposition when he entered the game!
Hate to say it but I agree with Jason. Durbin is pitching pretty well of late while Venters is pathetic and EOF is up one day and down the next.

Where is Cory Gearin? I liked that dude, he was pretty good most times. Nothing all that special, but had a lot of Moylan in him and thre harder. Oh and he’s from my parts

The last time EOF gave up a run was on May 7th.

Our pitching really has gone to hell this season.
Just not used to seeing this yet.
Hope Kimbrel is Durbinesque tonight….lol

How is winning tedious?
CaptMudd

@cabravesfan…yea, tired due to overwork at the new house and, of course, the southern heat/humidity.
ohhhhYEAH

bunting Bourn here is huge. Pastornicky is fast but with Bourn running to first the fielder has really no time to try and decide to throw to first or make an attempt at second

CaptMudd – the only thing between me and a knee replacement is 25 miles a day on my bicycle. I can feel the stiffness and range of motion reducing after about 2 days of not riding.
I went for a month last year to New Smyrna Beach. I bought a month pass to Cape Canaveral National Seashore and rode that entire park area every day. That is one of the most undiscovered parts of Florida I can think of. All of that land around Cape Canaveral is obviously undeveloped but then you have Mosquito Lagoon and Merritt Island to name a couple.
I’ll go back there again late this fall to enjoy some temperature changes.

Gearrin has struggled int he majors at times, but I’m thinking he will be called up after the Nats series when the team sends Boscan back down…

that will do just fine!!!
way to go Uggla

Why do you bunt the first pitch after 8 straight balls?
At least take a strike.

Freeman went for HR number 2 there. Felt the breeze in NC with that swing

opposite field fly ball by Uggly to foil their dastardly plan

Good job.

I think any questions about why Freddie was struggling after the Colorado series have been answered.

Chip couldn’t even tell it was a hit til it bounced….

I hate it when folks pile on, but even I gotta admit that Jason looks really lost in a lot of his at bats

Well done, FF.
We sure need him and Mac to help fill in the cavern in the lineup that is Jason…

someone had to make an out there so kimbrel gets the save

Would Jason benefit from a AAA stint? He looks lost.

CaptMudd-
Just an upset stomach – VJ, God bless him, took her out twice at 4:00 & 5:00 this morning…I was up from around 2:00 until about 6:00 and had to be up at 7:15 to go to the gym…long night

Kimmie knew that was a strike

Hey-Bust has to have to the biggest hole in his swing I’ve ever seen…then top it off he might have the slowest bat in the bigs…I just dont see him being anymore than a bench player…hopefully I’m wrong and he figures it out

9:51 pm
OYEAH
I agree with the bunt but lets make the pitcher finally throw a strike – he might have walked Prado which would have also moved the runners into scoring position without giving up an out.
Prado could have bunted after the pitcher threw him a strike.

If this is not the worst defensive infield that I have ever seen, it sure does a great impression…

that;s OK Kimbrel – I know you wanted to strike out the side!!!
phil

Send Kimbrel to AAA….
Stretch him out.
Start him every game. Complete games. He can do it. No one else seems to be able other than Durbin.
