Cheap seats for this game, Mets are having 1950's pricing, so got seats for $3.50 lol. I usually try and sit behind the Braves dugout near the end of the year when all season ticket holders are dumping off their tickets and the Mets are long out of it.

Oh. My. God. Doumit in RF? Hackity hack and whifity whiff are the first 2 hitters?

[NinersSBChamps]

Simmons is our best option right now to hit lead off. So glad that other guy is sitting on the bench tonight. He needed a day off. Doumit hasn't had enough at bats and he should start at least once a week. Hopefully tonight he can get loose.

Don't agree with sitting Heyward. With a fly ball pitcher in a big ball park, give me my best OF defense (which happens to coincide with our biggest offensive potential). But Fredi's gonna Fredi

Still no Mutts lineup.

Brain trust meeting to counter the Doughnut-Harangutan lineup ending.

Harang is gonna be huge tonight.

[stpeteirish]

Not starting Heyward vs the guy who beaned him. Not sure if I like that or not, but I know I don't like Doumit in RF.Wonder how many runs that will cost us.

[stpeteirish]

Harang is gonna be huge tonight.

Yeah, like 6-6. Have you seen Wright and Murphy's lifetime #'s vs him? Scary.

I was afraid to look them up.

Heyward has looked like crap lately, he can come in as a defensive replacement if needed.

Heyward is still, unequivocally better than Doumit at the plate. And a fly ball pitcher in one of the biggest parks in MLB screams for our best defensive outfielder.

Oh Fredi...

Heyward needed a day off when Lee was pitching. I hate waiting until today to do it. He's got to face Niese sooner rather than later to put it behind them.

This is my first post, so I guess I'll introduce myself! My name is Dallas, I'm 21 a Senior at UNC-Charlotte and I heard about this forum from a random retweet on twitter. I've been a Braves fan for over 15 years now and I'm excited to be a part of this forum. I been a part of Huzzah forums for about three years; and even though I love it over there, I get a little tired of all of the childish bickering so I'll be going back and forth. So, I'm hoping I'll get a good bit out of this place as well. Either way, nice to meet you all and... GO BRAVOS!

[CJC]

Any news on why the Mets haven't released a lineup?

Is there a health concern with one of their starters?
