[The Chosen One]

Expecting a huge "I have arrived" game from BJ if he starts.

[bravesnumberone]

Braves getting this one out of the way early so they can enjoy their off day. Not that there have been many "on" days lately.

[Runnin]

I'm purposely avoiding the "H" word, but this game is big, really big.

Enormous really.

[NinersSBChamps]

Gigantic game today.

[Dalyn]

A lot Harangs on this game. It's a big one.

[bravesnumberone]

I guess if we don't give our usual colossal beatdown of Strasturd, we'll know the season's over.

[nsacpi]

Expecting a massive effort from all of our guys.

[bravesnumberone]

With the Great Harangbino on the bump, anything is possible. Our biggest dreams could come true.

[Hulavol]

We need to pound Strasburg. Hoping Gattis is in there today...

[bravesnumberone]

I'm purposely avoiding the "H" word, but this game is big, really big.

The Braves will have a hefty load on them for sure.

[AerchAngel]

I'll give it a shot. Lineups to come.

Strasturd ears are funny looking!!!

[Dalyn]

BJ playing. I don't even know why I care.

[NinersSBChamps]

BJ playing. I don't even know why I care.

It's pretty clear the organization doesn't care.

[Dalyn]

It's pretty clear the organization doesn't care.

Though logically I reject this, it DOES seem that way on the surface.

[cajunrevenge]

Braves still just 1.5 back of second wild card. It's like no one wants it. Pirates at 5-5 picked up 2 games in the last 10. Still very winnable race for the braves.

[JohnAdcox]

BJ playing. I don't even know why I care.

This.

[cajunrevenge]

I figured out why they call him BJ. It's not the Bossman junior **** we heard. They call him BJ because he sucks and blows.

[Hulavol]

Come on Harang!
