Game Thread 5/10: Braves vs. Astros

Brett Davis-USA TODAY Sports

Afternoon baseball can be fun, especially if the Braves can actually stop the bleeding.

The Atlanta Braves desperately need a victory. In short, the Braves have dropped five in a row to fall to 11-19 on the still young season and, while it is still quite early in May, Atlanta would be wise to stop the bleeding in short order.

In an attempt to do just that, Jaime Garcia will have the ball for the Braves and he will be opposed by young right-hander Joe Musgrove for the Astros. If anything, this appears to be a pitching edge for Atlanta and, hopefully, Garcia will be able to reverse the recent trend of the Braves falling into devastating holes in the early innings.

Let's do this together and, as always, please be civil in the comments throughout the afternoon. Without further ado, here are today's lineups:
