    Good moves by Los Bravos to pick up ground on the Reds this series.

    Looking at that list again, minus the braves it's like it's late 90's early 2000s all over again. Just need Pitt in there.

    Know a guy who thinks this is the Hunter Greene sweepstakes.

    He's a RHP/SS from a high school in Southern California.

    We got this....we got Jim Johnson.....they don't. Pitch him everyday, you know, power sinkerballers get finer with more work.

    Since when is a high school right handed pitcher a sure thing to go first overall?

    He sure does seem impressive. There's a lot of baseball to be played between now and the draft, but he definitely has a shot at being a true 1-1.

    Because he may well be a better hitter than pitcher.

    I agree that I think he will end up being the clear #1 by draft day next year.

    Dividing by shortstop greatly increases his value

    Last night was especially big to lose while Cincy, Tampa Bay, Minnesota and the Angels all won. Let's hope for the same tonight!

    I guess we overcame that little bout of competence, or, as some would have it, Kempmentum.

    Very key series soon with Arizona. If Atlanta wants that #1 pick, they need to come out of that series no better than 2-2. 1-3 or 0-4 would be gravy.
