Like I've been saying. I wish and pray for some of the optimism that some of you have, but I strongly believe that we do not have an arm on our staff that can slow this Dodger offense down. Kershaw will be lights out off the intimidation factor alone.
$220 mil trumps $90 mil anyday of the week. Sorry, just no winning tonight for the Braves. The Dodgers are locked in right now b
1) We have the heart of a Lion. We simply will NOT lose tonight.Originally Posted by jsebe10
2) Kershaw wasn't all that in the first game. And now he is on three days rest after a very long (123 pitch) outing.
3) Our junk baller will get a lot of weakly hit balls in play. I have a strong hunch he will baffle the Dodgers. Just need to get him through four.
4) Our offense is way over due to put more than a few in the seats. Says here Kershaw gives us every opportunity.
5) See point # 1
Braves 8
Dodgers 1
Book it.
Man, I'm as pessimistic as most, but at this point the whole $220 million vs. $90 million thing only drives the point further home....
All we've got left is to hope and believe.
Greg Colbrunn is Boston's hitting coach.
Further proof we need to bring Keith Lockhart back.

I think this is a stupid move by Mattingly that will prob work out for him. I do think it increases the Braves odds of winning the series.
OT: Evan Longoria is so good
Man, all this Elliot Johnson talk, it would be ok if Mark DeRosa was traded to us after we claimed him in August.

I could have gotten behind DeRosa. I know some said his defense had tailed off, but it couldn't be worse than what we've had.
Really wish Heyward hadn't taken his hate for baseball out on Pastornicky on that pop up.
I wouldn't lack so much confidence if it wasn't Freddy Garcia pitching.
I'd feel a million times better about it if we were up 2-1.

And, more sacrificial ants have gone to the great anthill in the sky.
We should win a blowout.
collectively, this braves roster has gotten on base 21 times in 100 PA vs kershaw (including game 1), with 1 homer and 5 RBI. but kershaw has never pitched on such short rest. and our offense is due. anything can happen
I'm feeling an El Oso Blanco homer!

Got myself some terrapin to drink, and if **** gets bad early, some Punkin to get wrecked on.
