    GDT: #76 8:10 EST (Wood) Braves @ (McHugh) Stros'.

    Braves Lineup:
    1. BJ Upton CF
    2. La Stella 2B
    3. Freeman 1B
    4. Gattis C
    5. Heyward RF
    6. Justin Upton LF
    7. Chris Johnson 3B
    8. Doumit DH
    9. Simmons
    Wood (3.43) LHP

    Astros Lineup:
    1. Fowler CF
    2. Altuve 2B
    3. Springer RF
    4. Singleton 1B
    5. Dominguez 3B
    6. Castro C
    7. Carter DH
    8. Hoes LF
    9. Villar SS
    McHugh (2.76) RHP

    Yesterday's win wasn't beautiful, but it's a win! We need to keep it going and I think Wood is the perfect guy to rise to the occasion. Surprisingly enough, BJ actually looked decent yesterday. He had the homer, but he didn't strike out and made solid contact. Let's hope it continues today! I'm happy to see Gattis continue to play, as he catches today and is behind the plate tonight. Doumit will take over the DH role and bat 8th. I like this lineup a lot more than yesterday.

    This McHugh guy has actually been pretty solid this year, so we will need to jump on him early and often. Hopefully the offense gets going tonight!

    Oh, and the Nats are getting pounded 9-2 in the top of the 7th, so I hope we can pick up a game there! The proclaimed Ace of their staff gave up 7 runs in 4.2 innings, raising his ERA to 3.70. Yes, he's an Ace. lol

    As always, GO BRAVOS!

    Wood is good, but we're going to miss the massive presence of Harang and Laird.

    Hopefully BJ can lead off with a bang to help ease the pressure on Wood.

    I love Alex Wood. The man can just pitch. Let's hope he continues to do well.

    Dude, I knew B-Mac wasn't doing well, but I didn't realize he was hitting around .220. Holy Crap. While Gattis is hitting a cool .292 with an OBP around .345. Wow.

    It was a blessing in disguise. Well, not very disguised .
