    Another very important game to watch tonight:

    Milwaukee's Jordan Lyles versus Anibal Sanchez in Washington, D.C.

    This thread was needed... somehow, some way, the research put into this thread will lead to a much needed win. Duvall comes up with a huge play to win it... may be defense though... magic 8-ball wasn't specific

    the elegance of this GDT is to be admired
    "I am a victim, I will tell you. I am a victim."

    "I am your retribution."

    if the Braves lose tonight it will not be due to a deficient GDT
    "I am a victim, I will tell you. I am a victim."

    Folty, who has given up 18 homeruns in just 70 IP this year, is going up against the Dodgers who have hit 22 homeruns in the last 5 games (a MLB record).

    Should be a great, highly competitive matchup.

    So does that mean both could be activated on assignments by the end of the month or back in Atlanta by the end of the month?

    The last thing we need is Swanson coming back just healthy enough and then Snitker playing him everyday out of desperation and then him getting hurt again.

    I think Cy just violated the détente. Harsh penalties are in order.
