8-31-13 GDT: Marlins at Braves(Justin still out)

[Gary82]

Magic Number = 13

[Gary82]

BJ with the game of his life. Six in a row people!

Is this the beginnings of another long winning streak?

[zitothebrave]

13 is the magic number. Who'd think it would be that small with a month of ball to play.

But the Nats will be right in it with us. Lulz. EASY SCHEDULE!!!

[nsacpi]

Why is BJ playing he is horrible. He has been horrible all year. He has had 5 months to figure it out and he hasnt. Time to just cut bait and bench him and let him sit in the corner the rest of the year!

Agreed. Hope Fredi sits him tomorrow.

[Pugfan]

Lets have another 10 plus game winning streak. Not sure if a team has ever had 3 in one year

[Heyward]

Now would be a really good time for BJ to go on one of his hot streaks.

[Heyward]

BJ with the game of his life. Six in a row people!

Not the game of his life.

But best of a Brave for sure.

[Runnin]

BJ was awesome tonight.

Awesome night all around.

1. Chris Johnson has moved back into first place for the batting title.
2. Nats blown out by the Mets. (I may have a look on the Nats board to complete my "feel good" moment.)
3. No hits for Uggla but he looks dangerous again. (I'm projecting here a little.)
4. Cards lose.
5. Dodgers losing.
6. Justin is indeed alright. Yeah!
7. Our bullpen is still holding tough.

[cajunrevenge]

A good time would be a little over a month from now. One hot streak in October and a whole season of suckitude can be washed away.

[parkvadawg]

I'm going to do it. Lololollollollollloololl

How many series have we swept this year? A bunch.

I think I'm gonna take a few minutes and just enjoy this feeling. It's a Brave New World! There, I said it.

Atlanta has swept 12 series this year with a chance for #13 tomorrow and have only been swept twice this year (Detroit and San Diego).

[BlackwaterPark]

Dodgers acquire Michael Young

Thanks. For some reason I was thinking we had just swept the Marlins too.

I really hope this is a sign to come from BJ. Knowing Fredi BJ will be hitting 3rd tomorrow. Isn't that right Fredi:

[Heyward]

Lineup I'd do tommorow provided JUp returns.

Schafer
JUp
FF
CJ
BJ
Laird
Uggla
Simmons
Wood

[The Chosen One]

Hopefully Wood can hold up long enough to where we don't need keep abusing the bullpen

Expanded rosters means we could use a minor league arm or two if it's not high leverage.

[The Chosen One]

Good thing we won tonight, because the Nats would've closed the gap and gained even more ground on us.

if i were in charge, i'd call up 3-4 relievers.
knowing the braves, they'll call 1-2 at best

i wish they'd also call mejia up.
