    Can't believe the Braves didn't get Blackmon. They pretty much grab everyone from the Atlanta area. Cargo is good, but his health has always been a big concern.

    They are diving across the plate on stuff away. No presence on the inside half. Was like this yesterday as well.

    Solid? They are going to lose five in a row to teams who will not win 80 games this season. They are a bad team who played over their heads for months. Reality is setting in and that reality is 70 wins.

    I used to agree but am having a hard time believing that now. Even "a competitive team that makes mistakes" doesn't suffer a four game sweep at the hands of team that's 10 games under .500 and appears to have quit in the process. We haven't even held the lead in a game for, what, 30 innings now?

    I'm sticking with "train wreck" until they give me a reason to believe otherwise.

    I wonder what the record is for fewest XBH's by a visiting team in 4 game series here. Because the Braves may very well set that record.

    Said it yesterday, dont root for losses but not the end of the world in this case.

    Some pieces can still get moved, sucks about Grilli going down.

    more like the epitome of the average major league pitcher. which means he'll probably make 50 million dollars before he's done.
