I'm a little nervous with Big Red still in there and we haven't been able to add any insurance runs.

Tommy settled down, bullpen does its job, and we get out with a 3-2 win. Very nicely done Atlanta!

Kimbrel and Venters were nasty tonight, I mean the hitter didn't even need to bother to take a bat to the plate with them filthy.

The young pitchers are playing well, Heyward is back in form, no Soph slump for Freddie.... Team is looking very good. Now if we can get JJ and Tommy to pitch like we know they can, this team can take the Division by the horns and start running.
Don't forget that Tim Hudson is coming back pretty soon, I love Tommy but Tim is our Proven ace. Also I called that we're gonna win this series 2-1, I so hope that I'm wrong and we sweep
Yep. Waiting on Hudson to get back and contribute. Saw the post where you predicted Atlanta taking this series 2-1. But this is a 4 game series. So I take it you think Atlanta wins 3-1?
Oh well then it's 3-1

The team is playing some great ball right now. The offense and pitching has been exciting and I hope it continues.

Re: 2012 Season Game Thread
Resting some regular starters today. Get a 1-0 lead, and Delgado falls apart in the 2nd. Walks the pitcher on 4 straight with bases loaded to tie the game, then gives up a slam to fall behind 5-1. Oh well.
Battling back. Now 5-3 going to bottom of the 5th.

IDK if the series is 3 games or 4, if it's 3 then I call us winning 2-1, if 4 then I call a split 2-2

Expect Matt Kemp to have a field day the way JJ is playing

The Over/Under for the game is 7.5 runs.
Matt Kemp is my favorite player and I also expect him to unleash on JJ.

I feel the same way with Jair on the mound as I did Lowe last year. Hope this changes.

JJ is a mess, time to get the knee looked at.

Re: 2012 Season Game Thread
He cant help us win, and pitching like this is killing any trade value. Something is not right with JJ. Maybe the knee, maybe something else. But when Tim returns, it might should be JJ who sits.
