I missed much of the game tonight. But I saw in the boxscore Avilan's name without getting any outs. He wasn't hurt was he?
OK, I just read on twitter that Avilan was removed for Ayala after he hit a batter. I'd never bring in Ayala with the bases loaded in a 4-3 game, but I am glad it worked this time. I just hope it's not a playoff preview...

I've reviewed the Schafer vs BJ argument and decided the answer is "other".
Seriously, the "better" of the two has a .609 OPS? Good God y'all.
You're right BJ is probably the league's MVP this year:) I know Schafer's career numbers are not great, but for the 2013 season he has done a better job than BJ. I throw out BJ's career numbers as part of the question why did the Braves pay him such a huge contract. Honestly can anyone defend BJ's play this season? One of the worst seasons by any major leaguer this season if not the worst. He is in a hole not me.

always the same dumb arguments in every GDT
Another win closer, but my God, FOR ONCE can we just win a couple games comfortably?
And I also prefer "other" on BJ-Schafer. Sorry, it's not going to happen for BJ. Time and time and time again, he's failed.
Gattis/Heyward/Justin is the way to go in October. Hopefully anyway.
