Would much rather see Pena in between B. J. and Simba for better balance. Don't care for the fooling around with hitting the Pitcher 8th - personally think it's rather stupid, but oh well.

[nsacpi]

Pena/Pastornicky will be batted 9th because it makes Uggla feel better.

Jeez, if that star studded Cubs lineup beats us...

[nsacpi]

Pena is going to have a huge game.

[NinersSBChamps]

How is Olt doing this season? He was supposed to be pretty good if I remember?

[rico43]

Holding down third until Bryant is ready. Based on what I saw last week, and what he's done since, that might be June.

Never fails, every game, there's always a complaint about the lineup regardless of who's in there.

[NinersSBChamps]

At least if we get rained out we can't lose tonight.

[bravesnumberone]

Good God, ump.

[mossy]

Squeezing.

[Five]

Umps zone tighter than a frogs ass....jeezus

[bravesnumberone]

Need to score early and often. 17 runs in the last 10 games.

[bravesnumberone]

Umpire is putrid.

[mossy]

this k-zone is a joke.

[Five]

BJ Rules.

[bravesnumberone]

More of the freaking same.

[jsebe10]

Lol fcker sucks.

[jsebe10]

Just cracks me up that Uggla is on the pine and everyone knows, from Liberty all the way to the toothless fan in Buford, GA, that BJ needs to be right there next to him.
