    I'm afraid this won't be fixed until they reverse this senseless "We are competing now...wink,wink" nonsense. Most of the real help is in AA and lower. We are going to suck this year AND most likely next year at the minimum.

    Again, if we were watching young guys develop...this might be "ok" to watch. It's absolute torture watching vets that we know won't be here long loose like this.

    Swanson can't hit a slider and he can't hit a fastball away. Yeah, I'm worried

    There's nothing wrong with Swandin's swing. It's compact and quick. Between the ears is another story.

    He needs to burn that number 7. That thing is cursed.

    Gotta send Dansby to Gwinnett before Tuesday night. At this point, he's not improving, and it's further hurting his game. Bring up Camargo in the meanwhile.

    As much as I dreaded hearing Chip and Joe do the old soggy biscuit routine over it, that bunt by Adonis was really smart with Gyorko back and Fred on deck.

    Can't believe that ball almost went out, though. My brain is still calibrated to TF power alleys.

    Too bad Washington stopped Freddie there. The Cardinals CF ended up bobbling the ball.

    Can actually pitch a 1-2-3 inning. Other Braves' pitchers have never heard of concept.
