Truth does hurt. Instead of being a vile little man tell me what isn’t true? Use and abuse is the Braves motto because they don’t generate enough revenue with their lousy fan support. Now u STFU!

Tim Hudson, Derek Lowe, Brandon Beachy, and Mike Minor. That has to be incredibly scary and depressing for Braves fans. 162 Games as the second best team (far behind the 1st) in the NL to have to have it all come down to those four being able to stop the red hot Brewers and Ricky Weeks, Corey Hart, Nyjer Morgan, Casey McGehee, Ryan Braun, and Prince Fielder. While being able to better them against Randy Wolf 3.58 era/1.30 Whip/113 K, Shaun Marcum 3.11 era/1.09 Whip/143 K, Yovani Gallardo 3.68 era/1.27 Whip/ 166K, and Zack Greinke 4.00 era/(2.41 since the break) 1.17Whip/168 K. in a short series.

It seems almost unfair. Someone upstairs must really love teasing the Braves. 15 or so Divisions Championships in a row and 1 World Series. 334 games of great baseball over 2 seasons only to run into a buzz saw in the 1st round. Its almost like its by design. And people say there is no God.

Assuming he comes back healthy, Hanson-Hudson-Beachy-Minor is still a formidable foursome.

They send guys out to play hurt and they abuse their young pitchers. Venters and Kimbrel have been over used to the point neither will ever see a big pay day. The Braves philosophy must be pitch them to dear while we don ‘t have to pay them. Freeman can’t even walk let alone run yet he is out there playing. Hanson, Jurrjens, Sherrill all have serious issues that the Braves management is down playing. Last year the Braves ended the season looking like a mash unit and I see more if the same. Shame on how little the Braves care about their players.
