Joremarid Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 the lead is down to 4.5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chili Dog Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 (edited) Could be 3.5 with Philly having a soft game after tommorrow. Sucks how quick that lead dwindles down. A sweep couldn't come at a better time. Hope they put in work foe this series. Edited July 27, 2010 by Chili Dog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falconsfan567 Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 Hanson needs to have his 'A' game tomorrow night. We sure could use it. Also it would be nice to shut up the Hanson naysayers for at least 1 night.I still can't believe people are all over Hanson like they are. -_- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATL Fan in the DMV Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 I'm more concerned about shutting up the Strasburg nut huggers.But yeah, we can't afford to have Hanson throw up a duck against Strasburg today. Braves need to get back on track with this series. Here's to hoping for no McLouth sightings! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chili Dog Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 By what I've read from Wren recently saying, I think they've had it with McLouth. He's been given chance after chance and still can't be at least a productive out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Braves need to get back on track with this series. Here's to hoping for no McLouth sightings!Two players I'll be paying attention to are Heyward and Diaz. Both were hurt last time, so it'll be interesting how they do against Strasburg. Diaz, who is a lefty killer, and Heyward, who has been heating up since coming off the DL raising his BA by 30 points.

K26dp Posted July 27, 2010 Author Share Posted July 27, 2010 Looks like I won't be able to make it out this week.That's not necessarily an impediment. The Braves have often made trades after the deadline to tweak the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Don™ Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 1. Prado 2B 2. Heyward RF 3. Jones 3B 4. McCann 5. Hinske LF 6. Glaus 1B 7. Gonzalez SS 8. Cabrera CF 9. Hanson PGood. A struggling Troy is more fit for the 6 hole right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gritzblitz 2.0 Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 Strausburg is a late scratch. That crowd is going to be pissed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATLBrave Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 The Nats should just list Strasburg as the starter for every home game. Make it like a game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dharma Initiative Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 Again, I don't understand the love for Hanson. It's like thinking Jamarcus Russell is better than Peyton Manning just because he has a better arm. He still lacks the adjustments and winning attitude.

It's like thinking Jamarcus Russell is better than Peyton Manning just because he has a better arm. He still lacks the adjustments and winning attitude.That is a terrible analogy. Jamarcus Russell was a fat slob who didn't take his job seriously. Far from what Hanson is or what he will be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
