Hopefully we'll see Jones' average start to climb.

Mike Gonzalez...sigh.

Mike Gonzalez...sigh.

Yup, he blew the game. And our offense can't score so add another L to our record.

Edit: Holy **** Martin Prado ties it up with an RBI double. Hell of a game for Prado. Like everyone has been saying why isn't he the everyday 2nd baseman?

Holy cow...we actually are putting up a fight.

Re: 2009 Atlanta Braves

Huge, huge win...Martin Prado needs to be playing everyday over KJ.

Martin MF Prado.

Frenchy needs to get his wife washing those turkey underwear everyday.

Prado just won the 2nd base job.

Gonzalez needs to stop moving around and focus on pitching. The guy looked like his was drunk and going to fall over tonight.

Re: 2009 Atlanta Braves

No kidding he needs to be hitting 2nd every freaking day. Move Escobar to 5th permanently.

Re: 2009 Atlanta Braves

Simpson stated last nite a startling stat...when Gonzo is pitching from the windup batters are hitting .241 against him versus .184 when he's in the stretch.

Spectacular turn of the DP by Chipper & Prado in the top half of the 10th also.

Re: 2009 Atlanta Braves

As soon as Prado stepped up to the plate, I said "Braves Win" to myself.

I'm hoping that Wren will try to trade Kelly and not Francoeur. I know we could get smething decently valuable for KJ.

No way. KJ has been terrible the last month. I would say his value is lower than Frenchy right now. At least Jeff has been hitting the last two weeks.

Don't get me wrong, I would love to see Kelly go, but I don't see us getting anything of value for him. That's why I don't see him moving.

Re: 2009 Atlanta Braves

I agree with you, but I didn't say valuable Major League talent. I should've clarified that. I was thinking that we could maybe get a AAA guy to add to the bullpen or something.

Re: 2009 Atlanta Braves

Martin Prado was a beast last night.

That DP turn by Chip was so clutch. Werth shot a laser at him. Huge win. Let's sweep them.

Re: 2009 Atlanta Braves

Prado doing it big tonight and getting some help. Braves lead 6-1 with no outs in bottom of 5th.

edit: Make that 8-1 on the Diaz 2-run homer. Goooooo offense.... but save some for tomorrow and a hopeful sweep.

Re: 2009 Atlanta Braves

Game looks to be over, 9-1 bottom of the 7th with the Phillies putting the subs in.

Braves should be 3 games out now. Win tomorrow and its 2 games. The Braves had to win this series and they look to be doing that. Now they need to pass the other teams also ahead of them.
