I haven't done a game day thread in a while, so hopefully this format is good enough for everyone involved here! haha We need to start a winning streak and it would be perfect to start with Teheran against the Diamondbacks. Let's hope Justin's bat can wake up on the road, Heyward can stay hot and Freeman regain his stroke. Let's hope T-Ran can keep his good work up and that the offense can do work against a pitcher that's 1-7 with an ERA over 5.

As always...

GO BRAVOS!

Expecting a vesuvian explosion from Chris Johnson against his old team.

I am 800 miles from Arizona, and don't get their local cable channel, but I am considered part of their marketing territory, so the game is blacked out for me.

I guess its radio only tonight :-(

Late lineup change, BJ went back to Tampa for the birth of his child, and his flight will arrive later than expected, so Schafer starts in CF and bats 8th with Simmons moving up to the 2nd slot.

Yes, for real, you think I'm making that up.

[cajunrevenge]

Better win today, I have a feeling the nats are about to go on a roll.

[Lville21]

McCarthy is extremely slow.

[thethe]

TLS hits the ball hard. Might be time to think about moving him up to the top of the lineup.

[bravesnumberone]

Simmons really accomplished a lot there swinging and running/falling off balance.

[jsebe10]

Shut up.

[thethe]

Shut up.

This is unnecessary.

[cajunrevenge]

No wonder the dbacks suck this year they are running out players names Ender Inciarte and gosewisch. Those are just not big league caliher names. Inciarte could atleast change his name to Infante.

No it's not. He was being a smart A. He's always being a smart A.

[jsebe10]

JT has looked real good since that back scratch HR.
