Braves win again

 

[Chewbaccer]

We've gotten good Jim Johnson this series

Second half of the season is coming up. Expect dominance just like the second half of last season.

But I am still wondering what the deal is with Mauricio Cabrera.

I heard Cabrera is a walk machine and is getting lit the fuck up

 

[Hitman Hart]

btw, Dansby hit .296 in the month of June. Good start to July for the rook.

We need to get the sweep tomorrow.

Houston is coming to STP for two games next week.

We'll probably have to win in slugfest fashion to have a chance, because those boys can score.

Lucky for us that we'll miss McCullers and Keuchel is on the DL.

That's a shame. Showed a lot of promise in the Majors last season.

 

[Chewbaccer]

AJ Minter is dominating in the minors, hopefully we'll see him in our bullpen before too long. The second half Vizcaino collapse looks to be near.

Twas a good day...now to watch the 88 win at Daytona.

I wouldnt mind getting rid of Kemp and playing Danny Santana in LF every day.

I think Kemp would get us a decent return.

If we could get a decent return,I'd be all for it.

He's cooled down a lot here lately at the plate, and every time he has to run out a ground ball, or make a running catch, I'm worried his hamstring is gonna give out on him again, and he is a defensive liability.

But I'd be more happy if we did keep him just because when his bat is hot, he's one of the most dangerous hitters in the Majors.

Nationals lose too.

7.5 games out. Still a long ways to go, but the closest we've been in a long time.

I have a thoery about Kemps numbers dropping off some..... There is this video on Youtube of Freddie and Kemp taking BP in spring training, Kemp was wanting to play HR derby and Freddie was on him to try to hit it to right field during BP, I think Freddie getting hurt and not being able to stay on Kemp about hitting the ball the other way during BP(instead of playing HR derby) is why his numbers have fallen off some.

We are 39-41.....Last year when we won our 39th game we already had 69 losses.

Also since starting 11-20 we are 28-21.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Also, for the first time in a while, we're just as close to the second wild card as we are the division lead with the Rockies cold streak.

 

[Demonjoe93]

If the Rockies keep crumbling (pun intended), we'll definitely have a shot at that second Wild Card spot when Freeman comes back.

I still think Washington is gonna implode this year. They do it every other year. That Bullpen is AWFUL.

With Newk,Folty, and Dickey pitching as well as they have,Jaime being decent and You have to think Julio will get it straightened out....I really think we can win the division.

 

[Mistaken4193]

Everyone is talking about Freddies Rehab but Sean Rodriguez has started back playing in the GCL...much rather have his bat coming off the bench than Jace Peterson.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Suzuki with our first home run since last Saturday to give us a 1-0 early lead.

 

[Mistaken4193]

Review, he beat it.
