After a miserable April, May and June, looks like Dan is finally back in form. Just what we need for the Playoff push.

I have to admit that I was impressed with Kimbrel the little bit wwe saw of him last season. But I did not expect him to be the closer he has been this season. Kid is terrific. Much stronger closer than I thought he would be for us.

^^^ You are lucky you missed it. Short of Lowe driving in 2 runs, this was an abomination. Leaving men on base, and then Lowe and the bullpen imploding. Glad for you that the wedding was a much more enjoyable event.

Ugly game. I passed out when we had a 2-1, so I basically missed the entire game. Some people in radio & tv continue to think highly of Lowe and what he has done during the second half or playoffs. His best years are behind him and we cannot rely on him as a starter.

Rough day, looks like Lowe is only good for 5 innings anymore.

It's clear we need another bat, question is does Wren go for the HR(ie Pence, Upton, Beltran) or for the opposite field single(ie Fowler, Cuddyer, Gomes, Spilborghs, Byrd, Johnson) ?
