The braves reporter said Tommy was a lot better after the game than before. Did he pitch another hissy fit.

What’s up?
DOB has a nice article on WREN’s rebuild this season. How are the guys we gave up doing?
REDS
JUAN FRANCISCO – JJ HOOVER
HOOVER is thriving in the REDS org. His 33 innings have netted JJ a 4-0 record; 1.36 ERA; 0.690 WHIP. These are AAA stats only of course.
PAUL JANISH – TODD REDMOND
REDMOND 2-2 record; 23 innings; 2.35 ERA; 1.130 WHIP substantial improvement over GWINNETT’s numbers.
CUBS
PAUL MAHOLM/REED JOHNSON – ARODYS VIZCAINO/JAYE CHAPMAN
VIZCAINO is of course recovering from TOMMY JOHN
CHAPMAN is in IOWA [AAA] where his 5.1 innings of work have netted an 0-2 record; 6.75 ERA; 2.062 WHIP, a much worse record than in GWINNETT.
BEN SHEETS – free agent

Grew up a Reds fan because I caught and my favorite player was Bench. Awesome team!!!
Liked Morgan alot asa player. He was the elbow flappping, smooth fielding, base stealing MVP.
Then I saw him and heard him calling games and he turned into the irritating, no it all, argumentative baseball commentator

Joe Morgan as an announcer = turn on the radio or find the mute button.
“Now look at youkilis, he uses his hands, see hands, hands hands hands. Let’s look at the replay. Let’s take another look. How about one more look.” Youkilis comes to bat and he strikes out. Morgan, “Well, he didn’t use his hands right there, but normally he uses his hands to hit the ball very far.” The inning ends and they come back on the air, and Morgan says, “Let’s go back to youkilis and talk about how he hits with his hands. Now Big papi, he uses his legs to get power, see right there, legs. “

If this was a football game, the opposing coach would refuse to shake Rory McIlroy’s hand after he ran up the score.

Rory is also the ONLY player in golf history to win his 1st 2 major titles by 8+ shots.

D-Backs beat the Nationals 7-4. #Braves have a chance, with a win, to move within 3.5 games of first place Washington!
Finally we get a chance to make up some ground.
