The pen was due to blow a game. This is it.

 

[Milwaukee]

Frustrating as hell, watching this Braves pitching staff. Silver lining is we can literally score 5 runs in the 9th and steal this thing, wouldn't surprise me one bit.

This team is close to being WS contenders but we’ve got to add a piece or 2. It’ll be very interesting to see if the FO is willing to really shop before the trade deadline.

Liberty may do nothing because a whole lot of teams have bullpen issues

I figured the Braves would take 2 out of 3 from the Mets. I think the Braves will take 2 out of 3 from the Phillies and sweep the Marlins.

Just for the sake of accuracy, it is the "Tampa Bay Rays." Soon to be the Montreal Rays if the owner can pull off a proposed deal to play half the season in Canada. They dropped the "Devil" years ago.

Oh okay They will always be the Devil Rays to me The Miami Marlins will be in a good spot if the Rays leave permanently for Montreal in the future. All the Rays fans will switch over to following the Marlins
