I sure hope that "wooooooooooooooooooo!" guy has a ride home. Sounds like he has enjoyed his cinco de mayo to the fullest.

I didnt think Vinny Castilla was that bad. He had a nice 2nd year. I didnt expect him to be as good here at Turner field as he was with the Rockies.

I liked Castilla at the time. I was amid, and he autographed a program before a game I attended, but in hindsight, I'd have rather Chipper just been a career third baseman and went on without Castilla. Though we had the best OF in baseball when it was Chipper in left, Andruw in center and Sheffield in right.

Dansby gets benched tonight. Jace Peterson starts at SS

 

[gobigred]

In not surprising news Teheran gives up 2 hits, 2 more walks and gives up early run

 

[gobigred]

Cardinals up 4-0 after 5

Braves with only 1 hit so far

Garcia just smacked the shit out of that ball


On a side note, I have not hung around like I said would lol

 

[Mistaken4193]

This is the worst pitching weve had since I started. watching in 89. I had hope for this team because of our offense but with our pitching they are gonna have to score 5 or 6 runs a game to give us a chance.

Yep. Even Teheran has been sucking

Starting pitching ranks #24 with 4.59 ERA. Relievers rank #28 with 5.59 ERA. Overall rank dead last with 4.94 ERA

WTF ever happened to TIE GOES TO THE RUNNER??!!!#

 

[Chewbaccer]

We had this fucking game won if the first base umpire would have made the right call to begin with on the Inciarte grounder to first with the bases loaded with 2 out.

Now we're gonna lose.

Whoever that ump is can eat a dick with Sam Holbrook.

The Ryan Howard experiment is over.

The Ryan Howard experiment is over.

It was worth the gamble, no risk at all.

 

[Mistaken4193]

Maybe we wont give up a 1st inning run this time.

Nope. This like 7 or 8 straight games now.

 

[Mistaken4193]

Our pitching is just sad.

 

[Chewbaccer]

I can't put a positive spin on this.

We've given Colon a long enough leash. He's done, stick a fork in him. Time to cut bait. 4 runs without recording an out in the first inning. Has to be demoralizing for the offense.

 

[Chewbaccer]

It was worth taking a flyer on Colon, but it's time to move on.

Dickey has been solid IMO, I have full confidence in Teheran and Folty, and Garcia has been about what I expected, but Colon has got to go.

 

[Mistaken4193]

And Chip and Joe had to bring up how successful Bartolo was in Houston.....never fails.

 

[Mistaken4193]

Braves have put up 3 so far in the top of the 6th and chased Morton. 6-3 with Bases Loaded and 2 outs.

 

[Mistaken4193]

And as always we give one of the runs back. 7-3 Astros
