    Minor has allowed at least 10 hits in 4 of his past 8 starts. He'd surrendered a double-digit hit total in just 3 of his previous 92 starts

    Two holes? I count 3 in the rotation, one is pitching WAY over his head right now. I'd trade Minor, Sims, Bethancourt and Simmons to the Rays for Price

    Someone mentioned Tommy Hanson, that seems like a pretty good comparison and the Braves eventually got rid of him. Wren has shown in the last few days he's not playing around, maybe they will do something with Minor, because he's a walking disaster right now.

    I hope you're not talking about Andrelton. Choose your next words wisely.

    Considering, not a bad job of damage control by Hale

    I just checked the score and before I looked at the box score. I knew who started for the Braves.

    The longer he continues to pitch like he did two-three years ago makes it more clear how much of a fluke he was last season.

    Ah, yes, here it is, the return of the sucky offense against sucky pitchers. This freakin team is absolutely maddening to watch. This team ain't contending for anything.

    Yeah, the offense is a bigger problem. Minor can be replaced. But most nights we can't hit. All of them.

    Making Turner look like Kershaw.....how embarassing. This team is so bipolar it can make it difficult to watch at times. Here's to hoping we make a move for a pitcher for the rotation.

    That's the thing we need Minor to be good if he's not going to be then we are not going anywhere and it's senseless to give up prospects

    Thing with the offense is I'm not sure the Braves can do very much to improve it.

    It's what happens when your team is built around all or nothing players.

    Nope. Heyward has got to start hitting for power and Gattis has to stay healthy. Those are really the keys. Freddie and Justin will be Freddie and Justin, and anything we get from CF, 3B, and SS should be considered a blessing.
