Neither is Andruw Jones nowadays.

Yea he missed two key catches that I saw so he definitely needs to figure that out. But his hitting a home run at his first MLB at bat is reminiscent to me of Francoeur and Mccann so that's a good sign.

Yeah, I was talking about his fielding.

He just went deep again!

You'd hate the Yankees/Sox threads.

I think I'll go to some Braves games this year though. I'm not a huge fan, but it'd be good to see a winning team.

wow. how do you blow that? i mean its not over yet, but goddamn.

Hanlon421 · 04-08-2009, 03:14 PM

The Braves bullpen isn't very impressive.

Even your guys closer Gonzalez doesn't impress me too much. He can't ever seem to have a 1,2,3 inning to shut the door.

If you disagree, say you disagree and why. Much more productive. But IMO, the Braves bullpen is going to lose them some games this year..

Braves will score some runs this year and their starting pitching will be pretty darn good, but their bullpen is a weakness IMO.

No I agree with you 100%

After watching their bullpen implode today, I didn't want to say "no shit Sherlock" to you.

JRod1229 · 04-08-2009, 03:50 PM

well that sucked... was on the verge of a sweep and to just blow it like that.. ugh

well, we're at home this weekend, so lets try and get those

ShotgunDMB · 04-08-2009, 07:08 PM

Well, that sucked.

thedrumster12 · 04-10-2009, 06:20 PM

a loss is a loss, its a long season, nothing to fret about. Time to get after the Nats, rain delay today

ShotgunDMB · 04-10-2009, 06:32 PM

Damn rain delay.

JRod1229 · 04-10-2009, 06:57 PM

Yeah... glad I decided to go home this weekend... gonna try and catch a few before they head off on the next 10 day road trip

Prime Minister · 04-10-2009, 07:20 PM

Anyone close to the Gwinnett Braves?

I am!

If we can settle down the pen we'll do great things this year.

Starting pitching looks solid as a rock and we currently have the most homers in the majors.

ShotgunDMB · 04-10-2009, 08:43 PM

This bullpen concerns me a lot.

ShotgunDMB · 04-10-2009, 10:26 PM

6-5 win over the Nationals in extra innings. It's always good to get a win, but the bullpen needs to get cleaned up.

JRod1229 · 04-11-2009, 12:40 PM

I really don't want to have another year with a shitty bullpen... nothing frustrates me more than a SP taking a lead late into the game and then the bullpen blowing it... ugh.

JRod1229 · 04-11-2009, 07:17 PM

Another solid win tonight... good to win the series, so lets see if we can get the sweep tomorrow. Bullpen gave up 1 run, so still a few gaps there, but lets get some confidence.

dmb_guitar_play · 04-12-2009, 06:28 PM

Here's to the Braves having a strong season! I love these guys!

JRod1229 · 04-13-2009, 05:33 AM

Solid start... swept the nats (thankfully) and won the series against the Phils... lets keep it up and get that bullpen some confidence. I love the start Schafer is having.

chylton1 · 04-24-2009, 07:08 AM

we just dropped what 5, 6 straight, our middle relief and bullpen are shit, d lowe is sick, and JJ is up and coming stud, we have starting pitching and offense, we just don't have that guy like a trevor hoffman, or rivera, who can shutdown one inning, we need that stability in the bullpen to get over the hump, if not, we'll be a few games back of the wildcard, and on the outside looking in again...

ShotgunDMB · 04-26-2009, 12:04 AM

Back above .500 at 9-8. Nice bounceback after that 5 game losing streak. Going for the sweep of Cincy tomorrow.

ShotgunDMB · 05-24-2009, 09:29 AM

Schafer stills stinks. Hitting .209?

Chipper needs to quit getting hurt all the damn time.

ShotgunDMB · 05-24-2009, 09:37 AM

Sweet...an actual MLB caliber starting center fielder
http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=4232225

Anybody is an upgrade over Schafer.

JRod1229 · 06-05-2009, 02:43 PM

I won't hold a grudge against Schafer... a rookie batting in the 8th spot is being set out to not hit well, especially in ATL with very little hitting support. The being said, we're making good moves and I am happy to see it.

Headed to the game tonight and prob Sunday... lets go Bravos

dmb@uvm · 06-05-2009, 02:59 PM

We do battle tonight.
