And of course the butt fckn Nationals are taking care of business...Tied it right back up vs the Chokies
LaRoche just gave the Nats the lead. 7-4 now after they were trailing 4-2 one inning ago.
Freddie should be benched for the rest of the marlins series.
Bench is trash.
Listening to Fredi's postgame comments, it might be a small step before Hale takes Minor's place in the rotation. Praised bullpen to the heavens, said he was a little concerned about Minor's lack of command of all of his pitches.
Only about 30 percentage points separates Freddie and Heyward's batting averages.
At this rate with one trending up and one going down I wouldn't be surprised if they're tied by Aug 1st.
Also crazy to think about that possibility 2 months ago when Freddie was around .320 and Heyward under .200
Forever Fredi

so, the dickhole surgery took Mike Minors ability to pitch well away this year obviously
I was thinking that it was only a matter of time before people started accusing Freddie of counting his money, but then he took on the tarp and the front row in the ninth inning last night and reminded me again that he is a true gamer who's just slumping right now. Sucks for us, but his defense remains top shelf.

Freddie is having some horrible at bats. I forget which one it was, but he was 3-1, and then hit a ground ball off a pitch a couple of inches above the ground. Now, if I'm a serious hitter, than pitch doesn't even warrant a look at 3-1. I feel like, either, they are not listening at all to the hitching coaches, or the players run the show when it comes to a hitting plan. Braves can't bunt, they can't hit and run, they can't sacrifice on a consistent basis, and they can't even touch the ball when they just need to put it in play. They have a team wide horrible approach at the plate...except for LaStella.
Heyward is the key.
Freddie is the key.
Justin is the key.
2 of 3 these guys are showing up. Can't say so for the one getting paid millions more than the other two combined.
Forever Fredi
