Solid. Let's win against one of the best pitchers over the last few months! I like the lineup. Even though BJ has been hot, it's good to see him get some rest. Hopefully Alex can give up a great game!

I love our away series' at Wrigley. Place may be a shizzhole compared to modern stadiums but it's a place I've always wanted to go watch a baseball game at. Now that Wrigley and Fenway are the only classic stadiums left...

Why is Wood hitting 10th.

Why is Wood hitting 10th.

9 is always going to be reserved for Laird.

A special tribute.

 

[TURBO]

Arietta has been on fire recently. Hopefully we can get to him.

 

[jsebe10]

Good chance for Schafer to make a case for more playing time

 

[jsebe10]

Simmons AB fail #1

 

[USMA76]

Unproductive AB for Simmons there.

Fcker is dealing

Our spotty offense has its work cut out for it today. Woods is going to need to pitch his [rear end] off for us to have a chance.

Olt is hitting .149. He was looking good back in April when we saw them. 175 AB's so I guess he's lost his regular spot.

It's such as awesome atmosphere. Went to two games a few years ago. I think it was 09 maybe. It was the season when Chipper won the batting title. Afterwards Wrigleyville is an awesome party spot.

I'm just hoping we don't get no hit.

 

[jsebe10]

Gattis hit the DL June 30th and the Braves have hit 1 HR during that time frame.

 

[USMA76]

I'm just hoping we don't get no hit.

I wasn't going to say that but I'd be lying if I said the thought hadn't crossed my mind.

 

[jsebe10]

I guess we don't check the runners anymore at the professional level.

 

[Dalyn]

Hope Schafer has a good game so we can trade him to the Cubs before we leave town.
