    Don't think anyone is arguing that Folty and Newk are top of the line starters.

    And couple guys yea...Dansby and maybe Markakis...but Freddie is slumping big time and Acuna has left a lot to be desired.

    They're our top of the line though. They've been pretty dang solid too though, so hopefully it continues.

    More fun to annoy you guys with the pretender contender deal haha

    I do think we will stick around a while; but without a couple pitchers really stepping it up, I think we fade in the end. I'm fine with fading too... I don't want to sell out this season.

    I get that he's a pitcher and maybe they shouldn't have to try to hit but Folty sucks horribly at the plate.

    I think Freddie’s elbow is more sore than he wants to admit.

    Acuna...that’s what happens to most 20 year olds in the first year. He’ll be fine.

    Dansby is surely better than this.

    I as much as I’d hate it, we need to just retire the road greys.

    It was just a bad game for Folty to show the old Folty. The Brewers are good but we’re not this bad either. It’s a mix.

    433 feet is incredibly conservative for Aguilar's homerun. That was going 500.

    Nice to see folty bounce back. Younger folty would've definitely not righted the ship

    agreed. No way that was only 430

    Acuna’s defense is truly woeful.

    The first night I saw Acuna at Mississippi he destroyed the ball hitting, but I could tell then he failed geometry. Angles still give him problems

    Don't think Freddie is the MVP anymore.

    Sometimes players should take themselves out of the fckn lineup...say, when your average drops over 40 points in a month.

    It'll be interesting how the braves respond after getting caught. Earlier when the nats caught them, the braves responded big time to take back the division. I really don't see it this time looking at opponents... I expect the Phillies to have a 2-3 game lead at the break
