    Two consecutive losses? Time for panic, generalization, and HYPERBOLE!

    Not worried about the losses.

    Worried about the offense. It's pretty pathetic. I don't think we will be able to count on Harang and Hale to give us quality starts like this. We need to win em when they give them

    I love loss GDTs. I'm so glad we get at least 60 of them a year. Cause no matter how good the team is, when they throw a clunker game everyone comes out of the woodwork.

    Our offense will be fine. Everyone but Freeman and Johnson is in a slump it sucks but it's not going to stay that way all season. Jason will hit, Justin will hit, Uggla and Bossman will hit a little more, Gattis will hit to some point. Braves offense will be fine as long as it's healthy.

    I'd love TLS up but Uggla needs to prove he doesn't have anything in the tank, we're spending way too much money on him to be a bench player.

    Despite my expected over exaggeration I think Uggla has proven that for quite some time.

    fNot really only really sucking for 1 year. Even his 2012 he was good. If he does that we'll be fine.

    Why would you think he can get back to what he did in 2012? What have you seen to indicate otherwise?

    I don't mind losing...

    but I do mind losing to a pitcher that was throwing straight as an arrow fastballs down the freaking middle and we still swing and miss, right Mr. Uggla, Mr. Heyward and Mr. Johnson. We know BJ will miss them more frequent than others so I can't get on someone who makes this an art, but the other guys, he was throwing 87 to 89 most the night and you missed them.

    Putrid.

    I was against the move to put Gattis behind the plate every day. I just hope it somehow works out.

    The Mets I believe were rated the #1 base running team last year. They did that to a lot of teams last year.

    They've played seven games. Literally.

    We were spoiled by the solid D of McCann. He was not the best behind the plate, but he was rock solid most of the time. He had some hicups when he wouldn't block trusting his glove and that would lead to some passed balls and he would sometimes have throwing hiccups where he would misstime his throw.
