GDT - Fourth of July - Braves vs. D'Backs

Fredi needs to get major props for seeing the wisdom of BJ in the leadoff spot. And it only took him 250 games to figure it out.

Place your bets: odds that these are the only runs the Braves score all night ...

Glairdership hasn't even hit yet.

good chance, that's been the mode of operation lately. And we hang on to win without adding on.
 
"Goodness gracious, the Nationals staff SHOULD ALL BE FIRED! Everybody and the scouts and Rizzo for hiring them all.

The Braves came out with a plan and executed it to perfection. BJ Upton led off with a single then stole second. The #2 hitter bunted him to third and Freeman drove him in with a single.

Braves 1-0 in the first inning.

The Nationals never have anything like this as far as preparation goes."

Perspective is a wonderful thing.
 
We should've scored more than two that inning but it could've been only one minus two missed calls in a row. Hopefully we'll keep adding on though.
 
That double play...

With our luck BJ will get to .280 by September then Fredi will give him the sign to steal second up 3 and he'll fracture his ankle on the slide.
 
I would take that, that would mean BJ would hit about .330 till then. If that happened I would imagine we win 100 games.
 
Can we assume now that the reason Fredi kept BJ in the 2 hole for so long was because he eventually wanted to move him into leadoff?
 
How does JUstin not swing on an 85 mph fastball right down the middle??? I guess he thought the ump was gonna call it a ball again.
