 The Braves are falling fast.  5-9 record now.  I don't even know what to say Braves fans.  We have to keep the faith and hope these guys and pull through.  They WILL pull through.Glavine and Hampton threw pain free from the mounds at Dophin stadium yesterday, which is good news.  Glav wont go on the DL and will make the start on Saturday at home against the Dodgers.  Hampton will need at least 2-3 rehab starts in Richmond before he can come back...he can come off the DL at anytime now.  Campillio looked sharp again last night, which is about…

 By Matt Berliner It's been 2 days since my last confession...uh...er..blog, because the weather here in San Francisco has been too nice to be inside.  If you've never been here, the Golden Gate Bridge area is the best place to spend a hot spring day, especially if you like bicycling, walking, running, or just to enjoy the sun and the people.Georgia on my mind: So Tom Glavine's hamstring is sore.  If they have to put him on the DL for 15 days, it's not the end of the world.  He's no good to us hurt all year.  Put him on and let that…

Agreed, BSchwartz. The future is bright; I just wish it was this year. They have got to sweep the Nats this weekend...and hope the Rockies continue to lose.

So, we'll be saying goodbye to Bobby after next year....wonder if Chipper will hang around for the last 3 yrs of his contract?

hanson seems to have NL Rookie of the year locked up, and Heyward was just named minor league player of the year... the future is bright in Atlanta.....

That said this team may be getting hot a little too late this season, but lets keep winning.

'Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde' comes to mind when I watch the Braves these days. They stink it up for two games against one of the WORST teams in the majors....then come back and whip them in the last game. Anybody wanna guess what might happen at Citizens Bank park in Philly this weekend? ARGHHHH!!

Here we go again......left too many runners on last night, wasting another good outing by JJ. I get so frustrated with this team's inconsistency.
And WTF was Diaz thinking trying to bunt his way on in the bottom of the 9th?
