Atlanta Braves at New York Mets, Aug 18, 2009 7:10 PM EDT


To say that this game and this series is a must-win for the Braves may be a bit of an understatement. With the shape the Mets are currently in, we should absolutely beat the snot out of them.

by Jareth Cutestory on Aug 18, 2009 6:49 PM EDT up reply actions  

OK, a little analysis.

LaRoche should be playing. He is hitting EVERYONE lately, and he definitely has the power to get it out of Citi Field. KJ should be playing. Even though he didn’t hit yesterday, he MURDERS lefties. Does Bobby even look at the splits? This is ludicrous! Omar Infante is not a starting player. He is a super-sub.

Gosh, I feel like I’m babysitting my brother’s kids or something…you no-good sons of 8!+c#3$

If anything,

Chipper should be sitting. It’s his RH swing that’s been giving him discomfort lately. Let him take a day off against a mediocre, depleted team.

chance to gain ground on everyone

well a W is the 1st step, but the schedule is such that every team ahead of the braves is playing someone that is behind in the standings so there is a chance the could gain ground on every team they are trailing in the standings

its surprising that he’s being put out there with this trouble. Bobby is usually not one to put in a player if its not a day after he’s ready. DOB even said Prado appeared to be still not 100%, and gave him a “so-so” response in BP.

Not what a supposed "ace" does.

A guy that got a big contract, four years, should have enough mentally to bow his neck and stop a rally before it gets this bad. I realize that all pitchers have bad games, but he has been TOO inconsistent in TOO many of his starts. I would trade him before I would Vazquez, as Javy has been MUCH more consistent than D. Lowe. In a pennant race, with a 4 run lead, an “ace” doesn’t spit the bit like D Lowe did tonight. Pitiful!

Random question, partly to take my mind off this game

Has anyone listened to Josh Caray call a game? Was wondering if he was better than Chip…

Wow

Omar should be DFAed with that effort…

I am not joking

I dont think I have ever been so mad at a single player in a while, this guy should be benched either way. If you dont play for your teammates dont play at all. I wonder what Boone Logan thinks about Omar’s pathetic effort

Well, that sucked. You know, it was a good game until the pitching and defense, wait, and offense, all decided to shut down all at once. Hopefully, JJ can put a stop to this mayham tomorrow or I wasted some serious cash. either way, we suck, but there is silver lining. Only 4 out of the wild card, so we still have a shot, as long as we decide to play baseball. Hmm, almost like they get paid obsene amount of money to do that.

GREAT game boys!

Heyward is still sucking and is 0-3 again tonight.

Bobby is just gonna throw some BS to cover Lowe and his pathetic start.

Rockies and Phillies are going to win.

And we get to hear about Brett Favre on ESPN the next 3 weeks!

I cannot believe Bobby Cox left Derek Lowe out there until he gave up 8 runs. It was clear when they tied the game that he had nothing left.

I normally don’t diss Bobby, but this was Idiotic managing.

For those who care

(so nobody), tomorrow at the game the only Braves gear i’m probably going to go in is the alternate cap and I’m sitting upper deck, per chance that SS/Peachtree catches me that would be awesome
