Camargo coming in from AAA and hitting a 2 run bomb in a close game is a perfect microcosm of just how talented this roster is 1-40.

Nats just made it 7-3, 2 outs though, in the 9th.

Mets win, 6.5 up.
I'd give one of Ozzie or JD a day off on Tuesday.
Good win, even sweeter with the nats finally losing a game.
Huge day. Getting an extra game cushion on the Nats is fantastic. Magic number is down to 19 correct?
Slowly learning to trust that we have a pen that can close out games. And the team depth shows as we win with certain players injured or simply ice cold.
WOOHOOO
Melancon has been golden these past two weeks. He really got roughed up a couple of times in his early going as a Brave, but here's hoping he can keep it rolling.
PS--Hope the Mets can keep it up against the Zombie Expos.

It can work both ways and I frankly don't know what it is with Culberson. Give some guys too many ABs and they get exposed. Give other guys too few and they can't get their timing down. I think it's the latter with Camargo, but I can go either way in my assessment of Culberson.
Culberson has been the luckiest Braves hitter the last 2 years in limited exposure. That luck has run out and Culberson is looking more like the ~.270 xwOBA true talent guy he actually is.
Culberson doesn’t “need” anything other than being used as the player he actually is: a versatile bench player that isn’t very good offensively. He’s basically Hech with less SS ability and more OF ability.
