Come on Uggla.
Well, looks like Carpenter is the only reliever who can get some outs before Kimbrel. Let's hope he maintains his effectiveness...
Uggla is great at taking until it's a full count

Lol, how do we only have 5 hits in this game
Everyone looks like they're trying to hit a HR.
They were probably pitching over the head, some still are (Carpenter and Varvaro namely) along with overuse (including being warmed up too many games in a row). Avilan stands out in that regard, but that ended Gearrin's season and other bigger names before him (so nothing new).
Right, including games they warmed up and didn't pitch. Walden getting hurt made it tougher, then Fredi refused to call up help at start of Sept. too. He should've added a power arm like Obispo and if Hale isn't starting use him too. But instead we get a terrible vet pitching at key times (Loe).
Or games that they just were brought in to face one hitter.
But if Avilan can't find a second wind, it may be time to switch roles with him and Downs.
Good work from Carpenter. Offense hasn't done a damn thing against their supposedly awful bullpen. So it'd be nice to get a run here.
Here's Gregg, 3-0 count. Hopefully Schafer can work a walk. I've never though much of Gregg and was glad we didn't get him.
Good AB by Schafer, that was clearly ball four too.
