Let’s Catch Some Fish

Written by Colin on June 2, 2008 – 5:10 pm

The Braves are back from their latest stunningly awful road trip of epic proportions and are playing the Marlins tonight at Turner Field.  Now, if we were on the road we’d just go ahead and write the thread saying we lost, but since we’re at home a completely different team is going to show up, continuing to frustrate and bewilder Braves fans.

The inconsistent Jo-Jo Reyes (2-3, 4.83) takes the mound for the Braves against the Marlins’ southpaw Scott Olsen (4-2, 3.65).  Let’s look for offensive firepower from Chipper (as always), Tex (who’s been on fire as of late), and hopefully Francoeur can continue to notch it up a bit.

Smoltz may or may not make an appearance tonight.  I’d guess not, but if he does, expect the crowd to respond with some noise.  If you’re not doing anything tonight, come on out to the ballpark and enjoy some Monday night baseball with us.  Support the Braves and help them come off that rough road trip with some hometown lovin’.

    Hopefully just the presence of Smoltz will be enough to energize this team for the rest of the season. The leaders being the dugout are one thing, going out there and pitching and leading by example is a whole other thing.
