Braves @ Pads Open Thread: Can we beat Peavy again?
Atlanta Braves at San Diego Padres, Jul 11, 2008 10:05 PM EDT
While we are facing the defending Cy Young winner, we are still playing one of the worst teams in baseball, and we should be able to beat them. I don't know if I'm looking forward to this game or this series.

1. 36,249
2. Yunel
3. Frenchy 3-4 with a HR
It’s almost a habit still to have these thoughts, you know. I was trained like a rat.
best not to pick Yunel
He’s not in the lineup tonight.
G. Blanco lf
K. Johnson 2b
C. Jones 3b
M. Teixeira 1b
B. McCann c
J. Francoeur rf
M. Kotsay cf
B. Lillibridge ss
J. Reyes p
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
nice way to start the game...
...I guess?
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
So...
...I finally get back in the swing of things and Blanco gets caught stealing for the 2nd time. Maybe I should go.
I'm gettin' out of this town alive...even if it kills me.

So, I thought the Padres
had no offense?
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
Its amazing how struggling offenses find their way back when facing the Braves
And how minor league journeymen pitchers find new hope for their careers
IS it going to be one of THOSE nights?
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
yes.
Tom Glavine is 2-2 in DL trips following starts wearing the blues.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
yes.
Please no blue jerseys. Nearly had a panic attack at the game on the 4th when I thought they had the (matching) blue hats on!
That is gone anywhere else.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
let's see if FYF can leave him out there...
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
oooooooooooooooooooof course.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
Forgot we were playing in this cave...
...thought McCann’s was a no doubter.

yo.
I guess I should be one to talk.
There's nights that I can't even walk.
There's days I couldn't give a fuck.
And in between is where I'm stuck.

So....
could we start an inning off without giving up a triple?
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
start off the bottom half of an inning.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
or go ahead an walk him.
...he can’t get on base any other way.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
that is so dumb.
MLB needs to fix that crap.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."

laffy taffy is generally the same price as a pack of like 3 airheads, and is more tasty and less filling and bigger and generally more awesome. no slight against airheads though…i remember plowing through like a dozen a day at the pool when i was a kid. wow, no wonder i was so far
haha, i always crushed at least 2 directly after my little league games.

Why did Reyes look like that he got pulled so early?
BTW, I’m in Washington state, just climbed Mt. St. Helens today.
wow
blanco sucked it up.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
Lilly
Can he hit A ball pitching at this point? If I learn a knuckleball, who would put there money on me?
Trade?
Kelly Johnson to California Penal league for somebody who will take out the opposing pitchers?
im confused, why are their braves guys on base?
"We win today, that's two in a row... if we win tomorrow, that's called a winning streak. It has happened before..."
he’s a bum, trade CHipper for someone who can actually hit 400
"We win today, that's two in a row... if we win tomorrow, that's called a winning streak. It has happened before..."
man I need to be drunker
this sucks
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
WTF.
That’s all I have to say about tonight, the last game and the game before that. Sure, we face good pitching, but we have good hitters!
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
I'm losing my patience and my optimism.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
Nice game Peavy.
Shitty game Braves.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
12 crybabies before tomorrow's game.
I might be one of them.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"

Is Lillibridge getting paid for this...
or is he an intern or something?
