Freddie Freeman, best hitter in the majors? Maybe. Is his prime going to waste right now? Definitely.

Release Colon, call up one of the kids. Colon is 1-4 with a 7.22 ERA :banghead:

Kemp strikes out with the bases loaded 2 out in the 8th, after Freeman drew a walk to load them up. :banghead:

Very impressive.

Also, thank you for the reminder about Andruw Jones, as I nearly forgot that he hit so many before he turned 27.

Great underdog win last night.
We scored early and the offense kept producing.

2 wins in a row! Let's get the sweep!

Braves beat the Blue Jays 10-6, surprisingly Colon gets a win.

Garcia blows a 3-0 lead in the 4th and then a 5-2 lead in the 6th. 5-5 in the 6th :banghead:

We'll see him soon. Mark Bowman in one of his mailbags said he's probably going to be the first of our young pitching prospects to get a shot with Atlanta due to his success with Gwinnett and his age. I give it until July at the latest, probably June.
