    How is that a strike to Acuna when that one on Cargo was a ball?

    MLB needs close races. Better for ratings

    Braves never seem to play the Rockies well.

    Braves actually won a series against Colorado in Denver this year, but that feels like ages ago and honestly was before Colorado got it going, but this is about BABIP tonight. You can make a good argument that the last 6 runs were caused by the defense.

    ETA: And I guess you can argue that that Newk was "due" to have BABIP continue to go against him, but when Markakis is lazily playing what should've been a pop up...nah. It's about BABIP.
    Aggression with prospects is fine, but being stupid is not. There should be a way to find a happy medium between a Pirates like idea of being overly cautious with prospects and going stupidly fast with prospects.

    What's up with our defense? Lots of less than best effort plays recently.

    Two things I’m pondering right now:

    1. Watching Charlie Blackman this year really makes me want to think twice about signing Neck back.

    2. Newk needs to pitch in like Seattle. He is sweating and huffing like Gohora out there...but it’s not really even that hot tonight.
