Why all these days off when we don't play Monday-Wednesday? Won't that be sufficient time to recharge physically and mentally?
 
I don't think homefield is going to matter if the guys raen't performing. Either Jason/Justin are hot or they won't be. If they are I think we can win the world series. If not then we won't make it out of the first round.
 
I don't get the "resting" people either. It seems as if Fredi is in denial re weather or not we're in a tussle for home field. Schafer can't hit, period. Play him when the games don't matter, like Sunday.
 
The game on Sunday could very well matter. I have a strong feeling that we'll be tied headed into Sunday. Win and we get home field advantage. Lose and we miss out. Just a hunch.

For the love of g-d I would just like to see us have a 1-2-3 top of the first and then just blast the ever loving **** out of them with a 6 spot in the bottom half.
 
I totally understand Justin needs rest. But he needed it about a week ago. It's just too crucial right now to rest him.
 
I just got back from Atlanta coupla hours ago. Saw the Brewers debacle in its entirety. Some observation: BTW my seats last nite were a max of 30 feet from the scrum. Wonder if this inefficient ump crew confused Laird with Reed Johnson. Reed absolutely threw some punches. Didnt see Laird on my side of the pile. Freddie did not plunk anyone. He did do a lot of pushing and maybe pushed one of the blues. So big he is hard to miss.

Agree with lots of posters here. Heyward and Freeman along with Gattis and Simmons are critical to any chance to win it would seem. J Up and McCann have value as well tho seem to be pressing a lot tho not to the extent of Chris Johnson.

Minor looks almost helpless in his start. Garcia was pretty special. Maholm showed lots better in the box score than he did in person.

If there was some way to get Gennett for our leadoff and 2nd sacker, I would give up some true value. Aoki is a gnat (or flea) but Man does he have a swing.

Laird was ejected after the melee for things he said from the dugout.
