It's amazing how well the Braves handle Strausbug. Even with 8 ks, the get 4 runs on 9 hits.

I'm guessing Pena went in as a defensive replacement for La Stella? That's so terrible with Johnson in the same infield.

Wow, I was not expecting that home run there with one out to go for the game.

Wastes a great game by Minor outdueling Strasburg.

Hope we can take this game back in extras.

Also, is Evan Gattis legit the best catcher in baseball?

What sucks for Gattis is he's got such a slim chance to make the All Star game. With his performance this year, maybe he's a better candidate than Posey by the numbers, but Yadi still has the "best NL catcher" momentum and Lucroy is the most surprising NL catcher this year.

He's number 1 in all our hearts though

With tonight's thrilling win, the Braves reclaim 1st place in the East and have won 20 of the last 27 vs the Nationals.

I doubt he's actually as good as Lucroy/Posey/Molina longterm but it's awesome we're even having this conversation.

BJ Upton batting 2nd and Justin Upton batting 6th could be the most absurd thing i've ever seen.

It's so frustrating everyday to see it. Just boggles the mind.

Again today too. Plus he's trying to wear out Gattis like he has the pitchers. Didnt even give him the day off after catching all 13 innings Friday and starting him today after a night game. guess no confidence in Lard or Doumit.

True but offday tomorrow might factor in that decision a bit, plus the fact we're playing Nats. I'd def understand if he sat Gattis, but I'm glad he's in.

Yesterday is what really gets me. We saw the problems Gattis and Teheran were having, and I thought Laird was Teheran's usual catcher. I understand really wanting to win, but Fredi is terrible with some of these decisions. And it never stops. Too bad it'll take more than one bad year to fire him(and Wren).
