Well, blowing through their pen in the first game, Jurrjens not going six and Hampton pulling a muscle obviously has something to do with it.Originally posted by crazk829 View Post
It's only four games. Don't panic.

Lord of Mercy, I thought we Mets fans were pessimists! Listen, most Mets fan I know are still scared of your lineup (as well as Tim Hudson, John Smoltz, and Peter Moylan if not the rest of the pitching staff...though you can add Jair Jurrjens to the list for me because I saw him in Detroit)! And yet, neither of us are leading the NL East. That honor would fall to the Washington Nationals, a team that I would be shocked manages to play over .500 ball. Relax dude, it's a LONG season. And the best team win!"They put me in the Hall of Fame? They must really be scraping the bottom of the barrel!"

ERRORS, and the clean-up spot( i know it's wayyyy early), but tex is the only braves starter hitting under .300 besides, mark kotsay (and he was not obtained for his offense). Now before i get hammered for this I AM NOT SAYING HE WON'T TURN IT AROUND, but I would say it's part of the reason the braves are 1-3.
I think the 'pen has been pretty good. I thought bennett and boyer were great yesterday, considering bennett didn't know he was starting until 5 min. before game time.Comment

Too early to worry. It takes the first month of the season for teams to get into the groove again.My collection of autographs: TTM AutosComment
