GDT 4/29 - WAS @ ATL: Post-apocalypse

I wonder if trading 3 or 4 of the popular fan favorite players had anything to do with...

That and the front office not being interested in putting a winning product on the field in the final days of Turner Field.

I am sure it does. But let's not act like the Braves have been near the top of attendance. Whatever the reasons are.

I recall us usually being in the 15-20 range

Dustin Peterson had a perfect night tonight for Carolina, he went 4-4 with a homer, double, two singles, walk and 2 RBI's along with 2 runs scored. Great night for that kid.

 

[bravesnumberone]

Good idea. We'll just leave the bats on the shoulders.

They gave up when the Zimmerman hit that single that scored 3 runs.

Game was over then and they are just playing through the motions and collect their check.

 

[Braves1976]

Cornely is finally set to pitch a week later after his call-up.

 

[sturg33]

So Dan Uggla had 10 RBI last year... He has 8 in this series

 

[AerchAngel]

What are the odds of us going 3 up and 3 down in the 9th?

 

[Julio3000]

Nothing more dangerous than a rusty cornballer.

 

[50PoundHead]

Cornely is fitting right in.

 

[AerchAngel]

Denard might hit two homers all season......well he got his quota for the season already.

 

[sturg33]

Like Julio alluded to last night, it is kinda funny(?), or weird(?), or sad(?) that I don't even get upset about these losses. It makes the season easier to get through - but having no expectations kinda takes the fun out of it

I have reason to believe he's hungry against his former club.

 

[Julio3000]

I have reason to believe he's hungry against his former club.

He's hacking up owl pellets all over the Ted this week.

 

[sturg33]

reported attendance of 12,500 tonight... against our top division rival

 

[AerchAngel]

Late 70's early 80's are back in vogue again, Hooray!!!!!!!!

Lets all get nekkid and run unto the field and be silly.

 

[UNCBlue012]

I try my best to relax in situations like this, especially since I know the nature of this team, but I'm livid. Absolutely livid. It begins with Fredi and trickles down. This is embarrassing and at home. Fire his ass now and figure something out. But this is just insane. 26 runs in two games with Dan Uggla leading the pack with 8 RBI? Insane.

 

[Braves1976]

I hope it was just rust but Cornely's fastball was most 88-89 mph tonight, high was 91 mph and that went out of the park.

 

[50PoundHead]

Really does boil down to starting pitching. Nothing more deflating that bad starting pitching. Always playing from behind and tight.
