    Agreed... I think Newcomb has looked really good thus far today

    he does. he also makes our defense worse. Since Kemp hasn't played the Braves have a 3.81 ERA compared to 4.69 for the whole season overall.

    That is true regarding that data. But it should be obvious to most that Kemp costs the team runs on defense. How much is certainly up for debate.

    The basketball analogy of the Braves against Philadelphia would be the Washington Generals against the Globetrotters.

    Well we've started Adams in LF for some of these games and enscheff says Adams is even worse. I have no idea

    Unfortunately, Adams is probably worse.

    It's clear this organization doesn't understand how to evaluate players

    Remember. Nick is a gold glover. But this inning is a perfect example of how Newk is charged a run where with an average RF he is out of the inning.

    It's just an anomaly. The Braves are a better team than the Phillies. They just have our number
