    Bloop hit and a couple of stolen bases give the Fish an early run. With Fernandez on the mound, we can't afford to give up very many.

    How did Markakis hit that ball as hard as he did?

    Markakis is well over his over/under expectations in the HR department. I was thinking maybe half-a-dozen.

    The Marlins are just bad against us. does the 2017 schedule have us playing the Fish 80 times?

    Ender seemed to forget it was the pitcher (and not him) who was in trouble in that situation.

    There's a good chance Markakis' head will hit the pillow tonight with a 400 slugging percentage. Did not see that coming on opening day, and certainly not even a month ago.

    The Braves may see some teams come nibbling this offseason, after all.

    He's had a strong second half.

    Quite the vindication.

    So much for that three run lead, sigh.

    Boy, our starting pitching has been disappointing this week. Folty, wisler, and Julio lay an egg

    I wouldn't call this start an egg.. he battled with control issues and it finally caught up with him. Happens.

    Lost a 3-run lead and only went 5.1... I wouldn't call it a good start by any stretch

    Certainly not we'd hoped for in a JT start.

    FWIW Muk takes one in the pocket as payback for Prado, I guess.

    Uh-oh, now it's on. Plunk Fernandez, if you must, but you can't throw at his head.

    Fernandez is a really good pitcher. He does seem to have his issues with the Braves. Didn't we take exception to his admiring a home run a few years ago?

    Is Cabrera hurt? His velocity is way down. Maybe we should shut him down for the rest of the year.

    I think Eddie Perez went back to his playing days there. He was ready to take someone out.
