AJC beat writer has suggested a $10-20 million bump in budget next year, based on what he's heard.


...Tex having a rough 1st inning in the field, cost us a couple runs.

Alright, nice job getting out a mini jam. Time to get some runs, top of the order coming up. Can't fall behind 5.5, still a lot of time, but have to win some games.

EDIT: 1st and 2nd no out, Chipper/Tex/Andruw up, no runs. Ugh. Still down 4-1.

EDIT: And this one is over. Atkins 3 run HR. 7-1 Rockies.

Ouch. Smoltz battled all night at obviously well less than 100%, but he couldn't hold 'em forever...

Needless to say, I'm still worried about our starting rotation.

One bright spot, Tex with yet another bomb.

Teixeira with a HR. Ehh, if nothign else, 3 HR in 3 games. Keep it going. But next time, get one when it matters. Haha, they are showing Sheffield. I remember that like it was yesterday. Sheffield was a great Brave.

That can be said about the whole team though.


Except Smoltz.

We had all that momentum and now, just like that, we're 5.5 behind the Mets. 6 in the loss column.

Huddy's gonna pick us up tomorrow, though... has to.
