I have zero feelings toward either team...but I appreciate all the strikeouts.

I, for one can appreciate that. I love the strikeout also. Which is why I wish Lincecum would get his mojo back. When he is on, dude is an absolute beast.

At the same time, its never too late to jump on The Braves Bandwagon.

Then you should follow the Braves this year as I think we have a great opportunity in leading the league in striking out!

[Sunstroke]

^^^ BJ Upton's down side is definitely the whiff action...but I still love every ballplayer that's ever popped out of Mrs Upton's 5-tool womb.

My Padres may end up with one of the bottom-3 records in the league this season, but any time they beat The Evil Blue (Dodgers), it puts a smile on my face. Kind of like the one I'm sporting right now.

[CF DolFan]

Can we call it a season now? I haven't been this happy to be a Braves fan in years!!!

Actually looking forward to Washington series over the weekend.

[el diablo]

^^^^^ Not until after that series. Then we can call it a season

I was assuming I would see something like this after the Padres victory last night!!!!!

Well yeah, when your eleventy billion dollar all-star roster gets beaten down by a little league team with a paraplegic shortstop and a girl at first base, what did you expect?

Nice brawl in last night's game...sorry about Greinke's shoulder. He shouldn't have thrown at our old man outfielder.

[CF DolFan]

Made for exciting highlights ... that's for sure!!

[Sunstroke]

Shame we have Carlos Marmol to fuck it up....  

If you're someone, like me, who has twice streamed Carlos Villanueva, you might be thinking that the Cubs don't need Marmol to blow games, as Fujikawa seems more than capable of doing that himself.  Villanueva has given me 14 super strong innings, allowing only 1 run in both games, only to have the Cubs pen gack it in the 8th and 9th innings. Sure, they came back and won it in the bottom of the 9th, but that doesn't do jack for Villanueva's stat-line.  

harumph

[el diablo]

Tonight is why you never say die. What a comeback for the Braves.

[bsfins]

Yeah,I think closing out games,and holding leads is going to be a problem all year.Kyuji Fujikawa has had a couple of rough innings,(gave up 3 runs in Atlanta,blown save today)but Marmol has had few rough years.Marmol on a good day walks a guy,gives up a single,then plunks a guy,then strikes out the side for the save.I'm willing to keep running out almost anyone but Marmol to close a game at this point.
