Lets give Stults some breathing room so he can get 7 in the books.

Not to be cynical but, win or lose, when does this team ever make anything easy?

[Garmel]

Looks like KJ might be seriously hurt. That totally blows.

[Orphan Black]

What happened to KJ?

[Garmel]

What happened to KJ?

Oblique strain.

[USMA76]

Like I said, when is any game an easy one for us?

[Braves1976]

Magic Wandy come back to us! Stults go byebye or to bullpen! :)

[Julio3000]

Oblique strain.

****.

[USMA76]

...and in other news, we're being no-hit through three innings and have given up a 347 foot home run.

[Braves1976]

The way Stults gives up homers if he pitched here all year he'd be released.

If he pitched anywhere he should be released. The guy is hot garbage.

[Braves1976]

He may end up released by us if he keeps this up. I sure don't see him ever having any trade value, so that is another reason I'd kept Wandy over Stults. Oh well.

[USMA76]

The only reason I'm watching this game right now is basically the same as "rubbernecking" through an accident zone. That and to see if we can be no-hit by some guy I've never heard of.

[Julio3000]

Thomas David Cunningham III, please pick up the white courtesy phone.

I'm paying more attention to the Gwinnett game via MILB.tv, Man-Ban pitched well again giving up one run in 5 innings. Perez has his 18th steal, most in the league and all of pro ball I think (one more than Hamilton in Majors). Game is tied 1-1 in 6th.

Mehhhh. Just not time bring him up right yet. I still like Callaspo.

I prefer Jedi logic. :)

How many near hits will be stolen from Peterson? Damn.

I'm not as surprised when his soft liners are taken away. He tends to hit a lot of those.

[USMA76]

Batting practice at the Great American Smallpark tonight by the Reds. If the Braves don't at least score a run in the bottom of this inning (unlikely given who's coming up) I can't see much point in watching any more of this game.

Todd gets the nod?

@KevinMcAlpin
Not sure if one thing has to do with the other but after KJ left w/an oblique strain, Gwinnett took Todd Cunningham out after 4.
