would love to see the Braves take this one tonight and then take the series tomorrow. Finishing this road trip at .500 would be huge playing at Nats, at Giants, and at red hot Padres

Stupid mistake by Johnson and another strike out by Uggla leaves the pitcher to lead off the third inning. Bad baseball.

It’s entirely possible that by this time next week, uggla will be hitting under .200. $13mil a year to the man with the worst batting average in baseball. Don’t get no better than that. Great job signing him up Wren.

Guess I don’t understand the match-ups. To me they throw lefties, we box righties. C ROSS, LF JOHNSON, SS JANISH, 2B PRADO, 3B JONES.
Dang, cut McCANN some slack and get him out of there to rest that shoulder a bit. They do it for CHIPPER.
Then mix in HEYWARD, FREEMAN, and BOURN.

Uggla just flies his hips open so much. How can he be any good doing that? He still walks a lot which shows he’s seeing the ball. Just weird.
