    Simmons is definitely better. I'm just reminiscing at how good we had it as Braves fans.

      LOL Oh man, that was a brain cramp but least you understood the comparison I was trying to make. Thanks for the correction.

        Willie atones for his K to end the game with a big 3 run HR in the 1st.

        Need moar runs with douche-nozzle Lackey on the mound.


        And Lackey promptly gives up a 2 run double to the pitcher.

          I freaking love Arenado. Maybe Machado is slightly better. But I'm not sure there's much difference. Both players are as automatic as it gets defensively.

            Kris Bryant tossed by HP ump Lance Barksdale after arguing a brutal strike 3 call. Bryant's first career ejection. Time to go full on bad boy and get that face tattoo...

              I'm sure fouling one off his leg right before that didn't help, but that was a brutal called 3rd strike. Barskdale has been pretty bad back there so far.


              And Lackey beans the bases loaded. Please get rid of this guy, Theo

                Lackey loaded the bases with 3 HBP (Abreu, Davidson, Moncada). Doesn't happen all that often. And didn't give up a run.

                Cub batters can probably expect to be repaid for that.


                EDIT: Rodon had a weird start also. He's recorded 12 outs, 11 by strikeout and also allowed 4 runs on 7 hits and 3 BBs. A very high effort 4 IP.

                  And Happ immediately gets drilled. Thanks a lot, John.

                    3 HBP and there wasn't an altercation? Did any of them look intentional?

                      It wouldn't be a good baseball play to drill Lackey here, but let's see...

                            It's hard though...especially when I got my neighbor playing their franchise across the street...maybe I will occupy myself with Glamore Magazine.

                              Willson Contreras is an animal out there. One of the budding young stars in the game that nobody talks about and I don't think enough people appreciate the kind of talent he is just yet.
