    And I'm sure I was pissed about it. I'm pissed about this one too. Since the braves don't rest starters, I expect to beat trash teams

    They lost a 4-game series to the Padres in early April, and got swept by the Astros in late April.

    not that he is any better, but why does TDA have today off? They just had a rain out and if Twit is going to run all the other regulars out there, then why not TDA as well. strange.

    I am pretty sure he wrote the card out yesterday and didn't realize he could re-write a new one for this game.

    It is extremely rare now, but I can remember guys like Winans who had success in an earlier era because they were in a rotation with guys with big-time fastballs. Sometimes a soft-tosser can be effective when the previous game the opponents saw a steady diet of heat.

    Should’ve traded Albies for Quintana when they had the chance.

    I am over to the Masters now... watching Lee knock that weak grounder over towards 3rd instead of letting Arcia field it for 2 was enough.

    It's quite alarming our pitching staff has given up an average of 7 runs a game this home stand.

    Matzek will never be matzek again. We need Giles to figure it out again

    Nothing like getting raw dogged by the Mets to end a series.

    Not even remotely. It's an extremely SSS. If it happens for about 15 more games, then sure. lol
