    Not even close to as Jekly and Hyde. Also, I'm not trying to say this team is great but all we heard is how the team was going to be the worst in baseball. Thats just not the case and I think we can all see that now.

    No reason to give up on a young pitcher who at one point was extremely successful. Glad te Braves aren't as foolish as some fans on this board.

    Will Smith was remarkably stupid to wear whatever he wore on his arm like that. And maybe Braves pitchers are better cheaters than most.

    It's been nice that the Braves have been able to get on this hot streak with Simmons and Freddie slumping.

    There has been a lot of whining on Twitter about Fredi calling Will Smith out for the foreign substance, but you HAVE to say something if you see him use it while pitching.

    @mlbbowman
    Fredi said he saw the substance immediately but didn't alert the umpires until Smith touched it during Peterson's at-bat

    40 games in and the Braves are scoring over 1 more run per game than last year. The only question now is which was the best trade. I;m going to go with the Maybin for BJ trade. Maybin hitting .311/.408/.475 in the last 30 days.

    That's "proof or GTFO" territory, IMO.

    To say #Brewers are upset at Atlanta manager Fredi Gonzalez is putting it mildly.


    Hey Brewers, quit your whining. Your guy got caught cheating. The Braves didn't force him to put the substance on his arm.

    As Chernoff said... "Braves have scored 174 runs this season thru 40 gms. They scored 128 runs thru 40 gms last year. Low HR total, low K total, scoring way up."

    Man this offense is so much more terrible than last years....

    Of course. But he can't hit Homers for Markakis.

    Braves had to hit on 2 of their big trades to ensure that they could be reasonably competitive moving into their new ballpark. They literally hit on EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEIR TRADES.

    There is not one Brave fan that should ever have anything negative to say about this front office. They absolutely NAILED this offseason. A+++++++

    Yes it is. Just an idiotic tweet by Jeff Passan.

    Watching Craig Counsell's presser and I'm losing a ton of respect for the guy. Gems like 'that goes on with all pitchers including those in the Braves bullpen."

    Put up or shut up, asshat.

    Fredi sticks up for his team by calling out cheating, nobody here defends him. He doesn't get ejected and he doesn't care about his players lol.
    Forever Fredi

    Jerry Blevins? Really?

    If I were Craig Counsell I would have the umpires check every Atlanta pitcher for the rest of the year. #Truth

    Not surprising from a fan base that defends Ryan Braun. Screw 'em.
