    Just got home and flipped the TV on...yikes. Nice to see Hamels join the crappy start party along with Hendricks and Lester. Get these out of your system now I guess.

      It sucks because before the injury Hamels was rolling as well as anyone.

        I see Joe Maddon is doing his random throwing of darts at the wall again by inserting Tony Kemp (career .240 AVG .319 OBP) into the leadoff spot tonight. Not that it matters when the team pitches like this, but seems kind of regressive to put a little fast guy that can't get on base in the leadoff spot.

            Braves better realize they'd better start winning soon.

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

              2 home runs for Bryce tonight! Charlie Manuel's first night as hitting coach and the Phils have scored 11 runs so far tonight.

                I can't wait to see what happens this off-season for the Cubs. What a disappointing season. I gotta think some major roster shakeups are on the way, but I also thought that this year.

                  This Braves bullpen is so bad at their job...I say it every night and I know it gets old, but it doesn’t begin to touch on how bad they truly are.

                    Miracle of miracles, Shane Greene with a 1-2-3 inning.

                      You realize that this is either coincidence or possibly an indication that they've been holding back ... or it may have something to do with the Cubs trotting out a AAA pitcher after Hamels got rocked. Need a larger sample pool before I'm sold.... plus the Phils have no more Nola for the next 4 games.

                        And Melancon, with some help from Camargo, doing his best to blow it.

                          We need Swanson back badly..neither Camargo or Culberson cut it defensively at SS.

                            Blevins for closer?

                              The only reliever I trust on this team is Culberson

                                The AAA pitcher did a lot better than the $20M man. Hamels gave up 8 of the 11 runs
