I wonder if what we're seeing from Julio is real. This is 3 great starts in a row, and 2 were against possible playoff teams and tonight was against a decent team.

If Julio could become a solid, consistent pitcher, I really like our rotation.

We just swept a series where we scored 9 runs total.

I still dont trust Newk.

I guess we just ran into the Wrong team. Colorados pretty good...and we still should have beat them twice.

COlorado was hot coming into the series. We pissed two of the games away. Would have been easy to let it carry over, but we didn't. Team moved on and we're all feeling good again.

If we just go .500 the rest of the way that puts us at 89-73....idk if thats good enough.

I still dont trust Newk.

He's gonna have an extra day of rest and that's when he is good.

I don't trust him, but if he's our weak link, that's a good rotation despite not having a true ace(even though Gausman has pitched like an ace ever since his first starts with us).

I still don't trust Julio either , but these last 3 starts are encouraging.

90 is usually good for at least a WC spot, might not be this year though.

Phillies got Luis Avilan today. Didn't know he was still in the league, and there's no way that's an upgrade for them. Until Jim Johnson and Sam Freeman came along, Avilan was my most hated reliever for the Braves.

He had 1 really good year with us in 2013, his ERA was like 1.50 or something. But he has sucked ever since.

GNATS JUST WALKED OFF THE PHILLIES IN THE 9TH!! 3 GAME LEAD!!

 

[Mistaken4193]

And the gNats got Scherzer going tommorow.

 

[Mistaken4193]

Snit...

Dansby is hot right niw and he decides to sit him.

 

[Mistaken4193]

I think we need to move Ozzie back to #2.

 

[Mistaken4193]

Nice AB Freddie.

 

[Mistaken4193]

From 0-2 to a walk......pathetic.

I think Folty is our Ace now. He is maturing. Finally.

 

[Mondo Jay]

Although Folty needs to figure out how to pitch longer in games consistently to be a true Ace.

I think Folty is our Ace now. He is maturing. Finally.

When FOlty is on, he has some of the best stuff in baseball. He needs to keep his emotions in check.

But I'm starting Folty game 1 in a playoff series if we get there. He seems to do his best work against the top pitchers.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Newk didn't melt down. Hopefully this is one of those starts with a rough first inning and then he settles down.

 

[Mistaken4193]

OMG OZZIE WALKED!!
