If pitcher goes to the plate, Heyward is standing on second before the pitch gets to the catcher. Pitcher throws over and it’s a caught stealing.
Bad luck … not bad base running.

Gonna be a sunny day in Miami tomorrow. I wonder if they’re gonna have the roof open? I’d say the Braves are vampires, as they hate day games, but even their bats have no bite at night.

Anybody remember who the guy was years ago, I think it was an American League player that wasn’t real well known, but got hit right in the jaw and he hardly budged. Just stood there and spit a mouth ful of blood and jogged to first.
Next night they had abig sign out there that _______________ was the toughest man alive.

Tonight is an example of why Hudson is a top of the line pitcher. He dosent have his best stuff, but battles and k nows how to get guys out. He is not fragile like all of the other starters and he is a true pro.

Hudson at 80 pitches – 16 straight retired – no need for the bullpen yet, but he bats second here. Hope he stays in. Rest that bullpen!

“3.1 IP, 8 hits, 6 ER, 1 BB, 1 K for Teheran. Would love to know what his velocity was.”
Im sure someone will say he’s just working on certain pitches down there and that’s why he’s about this bad every start at Gwinnett….

Hudson has retired 16 consecutive Marlins since Reyes’ 2-run homer in 2nd inning. Tough little … Looks so bad early sometimes, then settles in and goes to work.
MiaBchBravesFan

Unless The Janish gets on base. Then again, with our sad-sack bench, I’d rather let Hudson hit/bunt.
Really, Greg Norton would be an upgrade!

Uggla will overovercome his slump. He will light it up from here on out. Have faith in the man, he is a professional hitter that has to get his feel back. I believe he will be back.

Now they are getting stupid. Getting nice little upgrades for nothing – which is probably what they gave up for Wandy – is cool, but mortgaging their future in any way is ridiculous.

MiaBchBravesFan – they are closing the roof for the most dumbass reason I ever heard.

Kelevra- The Great Urban Legend regarding the Braves is that they know how to draft, develop, and then have their pitchers go on to have above average careers. Since 1990 only two starting pitchers the Braves have drafted and developed have actually won 100 or more career games.

Well, old man, Fredi is going to prove to everyone again how to poorly manage a bullpen this year. Hudson is cruising, so Fredi spazzes out and brings in a reliever. When late August and September rolls around, the bullpen will be in tatters.
