That Mets lineup should not be doing any damage outside of Daniel Murphy. Maholm is pitching at home, so Braves win 4-1 today.
Braves own the best home record in the majors at 49-19 yet they were only 5-4 at home against 50-win Miami.
Time to start another streak!
Ready to see BJ keep heating up!
If there's a remedy for our tepid offense of late it has to be Dice-k, HE'S DREADFUL.
Mets played a night game in Wash yesterday, nice scheduling there.
According to reports, the Mets got to the hotel in Atlanta around 4 am this morning lol.Originally Posted by stpeteirish
Feel sorry for the sleepless Mets. They get to play behind the slowest working pitcher in the majors and he is paired up with the umpire who takes the longest to call balls and strikes.
No more Buck and Byrd for the Mets -- they were Braves crushers this year. Also having no Wright today helps.
Except for Dice-K and came in earlier and got plenty of sleep.
David O'Brien @ajcbraves 1m
McCann walks, still none out. Good thing is, between hits and walks issued by Dice-K, I will be able to pay bills and balance checkbook.
Chopping With The Braves And Rolling With The Tide
Nice slide by JUp to beat a strong relay.
I'm already more than sick of hearing about how long Matsuzaka takes between pitches.
Chip, meanwhile, will never not find it hilarious.

"For all his tattooings he was on the whole a clean, comely looking cannibal."
Maholm not understanding that laboring against the bottom of the Mets' injury- and trade-ravaged lineup is not the ideal way to celebrate Labor Day.
"For all his tattooings he was on the whole a clean, comely looking cannibal."
Maholm is struggling against an AAA lineup.
52 pitches..in the 2nd... guess it's a good thing Loe was called up...
Paul doing no effort in saving the bullpen today.
Maholm is so bad.
52 pitches through 2 and gives up a run to the pitcher, smh.
Paul is just not a good pitcher and I'll be glad when he's gone. You have to wonder if bringing back Huddy on a 1 yr deal would be something FW should really consider. Who knows what will happen with Beachy and if he can bounce back. Also, the ump screwed BJ on his last at bat. No way that second strike was a strike and I'm not even sure he went around. It seemed like the ump just wanted to end the inning and get this game going.
Who was the guy that told me Schafer couldn't steal 50+ bases if given a full year?
Maholm isn't a bad fifth starter, some years decent number 4 starter. But he is so annoying when he nibbles too much. He basically gave up that run by nibbling against a .198 hitter and then gives the pitcher one right over the heart of the plate.
