what is up w/ the Braves?!

well just got back from Turner Field and yet another loss by the Braves. out of 18 games...15 are loss.ugh anyone else go the games?

 

i try to go to as many as i can but iam kinda far, they have no pitching this year, i will be at the game vs baltimore on the 1st

 

yeah tim just ain't cuttin it. he walked a few tonight.grrrr i'll be at the Sunday game v the Sox again. i leave next week for 2 months so unfortunately i'll be out of pocket for a bit.

*edit..whoa just saw that tonight was the highest this season for attendance at 51,038 (101% full). glad i left at the end of the 8th inning.

 

They playing like crap now but some kind of way they always make it to win the div. we'll see if they can pull a rabbit out of the hat again.

 

they are masters at doing that, but i don't think it's going to happen this year.

i wonder how they would be playing if McCann didn't get hurt? but then, he can't help the pitching either.

Bobby Cox is a great manager, the only fault i see in him is he has a tendency to over manage a game. i hate it when he takes out a relief pitcher who is just on fire. and then replace him with another and all of a sudden they just scored 3 runs.

 

I just got back from the game against Boston. They just dont have any pitching. I had great seats four rows up in left field but Manny R. didnt play neither did Chipper.

 

It's just turning into a joke now. They seem to be up almost every game and then give up the win.

 

*pours salt into open wound*

how bout them Mets?

 

the problem is the closers not -throwing strikes-.

most of the runs we lose are because of walks. 1 gets walked, 2 gets walked, no outs and then they get batted or homered in.

Smoltz pitched a great game tonight by all accounts, made strikeouts, and got out of tight situations. Left the game 1 run behind...and the closers, well....

Also, the Jones' seem to have forgotten how to bat before tonight.

 

well we're at 8 consectutive game losses now! WTF?! i have completely given up on our pitching staff besides smoltz. i too was at the boston games, and couldn't believe how much louder the boston fans seemed over the atl. c'mon this is OUR house whether we're winning or losing. i dunno...i'm just speechless i guess on the whole thing.
