I was really hoping we could score some runs in this game because with Josh Johnson’s shutout tomorrow we could be right back to square one with the delicate psychies.

Hope I”m wrong but I see us playing like this in the wildcard game and it will be one and out. Dont see Bourn getting the money they say he will get. He”s a 300 hitter for the first four months.Great coming in for the ball but he misplayed a few this year going back.

Maholm: 4 hits, 1 walk with 5 K’s. Leaves trailing 1-0 with a runner at 2nd, 103 pitches/68 strikes

BILL SHANKS has enhanced his baseball acumen in my eyes.
No mention of SHEETS, MAHOLM, JURRJENS or HANSON.
And there is no mention of BEACHY for obvious reasons.
But he lists TEHERAN. I would plug in DELGADO at this point. I’m not sure T-REX can develop enough with the off-speed stuff to be effective right out of the box next spring, but DELGADO might.
Getting a top of the rotation guy may be a fix we need. Not sure GREINKE would be the one, but haven’t thought that far ahead yet. Still focused on tonight……sort of, right phil? heh!

That is a shame. Braves still have a shot, but with they way they have swung the bats tonight, one run was likely insurmountable.

Good work by Malholm tonight but Moylan is back to being the disgraceful BUMB he always has been.
He deserves to be Booed.
Never was a big Moylan fan — never forgave him for being a part of a game vs the Phillies early in the 08 season when the Braves blew an 11-3 lead. He and Boyer were a big part of that game.
That might have been the game that Kelly Johnson cost em with a dropped pop up late.
Release Moylan — he is a BUMB with a Capital B. Worst P in the history of MLB. He proved it tonight.

Are we capable of losing games without being shut-out? I can handle a loss, I mean it IS baseball, teams tend to lose games. I would die for a high scoring loss at this point. This all or nothing is frustrating.

Like I said we call up Moylan,Constanza, Overbay and Boscan they should never be allowed in the Majors. Chip and Joe were always showing Moylans tweets and I was hoping he never makes it back as he will find something else to have surgery on. Maybe his face he has to be the ugliest player in MLB.

I’m baffled at why the Braves hitters refused to disrupt Evaldi’s rhythm by stepping out, taking extra time, etc. They just let him pitch at his pace, and he took full advantage. We got what we deserved.

“PHILADELPHIA — Nathan Eovaldi and the Miami Marlins continued their struggles.
Eovaldi lasted just four innings while losing his fourth straight game and the Marlins lost for the ninth time in 13 games, 9-7 to the streaking Philadelphia Phillies on (last)Tuesday night.”
Yep same guy who shut downt he Braves offense tonight.
