    well this is not great news by any stretch
    can't imagine him being ready for real action going forward fuck
    still have a potential for Kahnle, Duffy, Brusdar, Yency and Victor making it back
    also pretty easy to envision May out of the pen

    A successful post season looks like pipe dream more and more.

    These final 3+ weeks are going to be interesting, from a schedule standpoint.

    High probability of clinching the division this series against ARI. Followed by a day off on Thurs. Followed by 11 games over 10 days. Then after another day off, 9 straight to end the season, including 6 in a row vs COL (how the hell did that happen?).

    While I'm sure each one us will agree that the ultimate prize is a WS win, and everything else comes secondary, I still want to see at least 108 wins to exceed the Gnats record from last year. Really, 110 would be just dandy. There are 23 games left. 12-11 gets us to 108. Or 14-9 reaches 110.

    With 3 against StL being the only real challenge, one would think with the way we're playing 14-9 would be fairly easily attainable. However, I can see Davey getting really creative with his lineups over the remainder of the season, to try to keep the team as fresh as possible through this flurry of games. Expect to see a lot of arms come up that won't be part of the playoffs. And of course I agree with that approach, but I could see us going .500 the rest of the way, which would be a bit of a bummer.

    Rough times for Kenley in Atlanta where he is deeply hated. Braves were down 6-2 with 2 outs in the top of the 9th vs Seattle and came all the way back to take a 7-6 lead only for KJ to give up 2 bombs in the bottom of the 9th.

    lolol at back to back homers, hilarious.

    lolol at the Mariners broadcast team stating "This is one of the best closers in the game." Apparently they haven't watched baseball the last 5 years?

    had to go make a sandwich and settle in to enjoy that
    those Atl balls were crushed, what a huge game that was to win
    and yet Julio smoked the ball so hard the scoreboard flexed
    and then fatboy tosses another meatball
    those might be actual tomahawks soon
