Braves @ Cards Open Thread: Game 3

Atlanta Braves at St. Louis Cardinals, Aug 24, 2008 2:15 PM EDT


We have a chance to win this series today, despite the thumping we took on Friday. That would be a nice little series win in the middle this miserable road trip. Of course, it's going to be a tall order with Jo-Jo Reyes on the mound.

Game today

IIRC, Looper made us look like chumps last time. Still, if JoJo can throw strikes, his stuff has been better lately. That’s a big if, though.

Jo-Jo's a good pitcher when he's not walking people

And of course he walks the batter in front of Pujols

Agreed.

Hopefully it’ll catch on with the rest of the team…

You cannot stop Jo-Jo Reyes

You can only hope to contain him.

And he didn’t even have to walk anyone

braves.com

I just went over to braves.com and this screen appeared…

Apparently even MLB.com has given up on the Braves.

Hope Lauren got that screen shot of Joe with the wig…
