Well, a shootty season just went to hell. We lose our catcher before the season. Best starting pitcher re-tears his achilles. Ozuna breaks his finger and beats his wife. Now Ronald Acuna Jr is gone with an ACL.

Buzz and I can't hear you because of the pillow fight that happened on the Northside over the weekend.

And so it begins...

Anybody need a good first baseman? We will accept all offers, even magic beans.

Cards and Cubs starting a series between the two premier teams in baseball. Looking forward to it.

Premier and evenly matched. You don't find that kind of matchup very often.

For the Braves? Yep. For us? Not so much.

Pass the cubs to get to .500, and I guarantee we drop 8 of our next 10.

Stop copying my team. Do your own thing.

Pfft...amateurs

I recognize about 3 players in our line up. Every night, it's some new Heredia, Almonte, Hecheverria, Arcia or Smith. They're all batting .228 with 1 HR and 8 RBI.

We're scrappy.

And exactly how many blown 5 run leads in the 9th inning against your bitter rivals have you had?

I was told there would be no math.

I wish Waino would start a fight in the dug out.

In just the 9th and 5 runs? Not many. It takes the Braves bullpen a full 3 innings to blow just a 3 run lead. Itâ€™s a slow death every game.

Slow painful death Vs snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.

Fuck Georgia.
