But, I am in Hotlanta tonight for the Braves game.
Go Braves!!!
and I promise not to throw any bottles on the field this year, as long as the refs don't call another infield fly on the warning track that is. lol
The bad news is that we face the Dodgers. I am trying to be optimistic, and I do plan on coming back from Costa Rica in time to attend at least one game, but I have to say the Dodgers look fucking tough, and with three dominating pitchers in Kershaw, Greinke and Ryu, we are really going to have our hands full. Nolasco is listed as the pitcher if there is a game four, but does anyone really believe that he will get the start if there is a game four? Unless of course they are up 2-1 and they are cocky enough to be thinking about saving Kershaw for the opener in the NLCS, most likely against The Cards.
But then none of the pitchers have gotten run support. Medlen was 76th out of 81. Kershaw was 56th. Teheran was 47th. Greinke was 45th. Ryu had the best at 15th with 4.7. Should be a low score affair but the playoffs are nuts...

the anemic stick of Danny Uggly has unfortunately-for me- has been removed from the lineup-but hopefully BJ 'the K' will be playing- 8-) Have fun in Costa Rica--heard of the Sportsmen's Club?

I am back in the good ole USA today, just in time to catch tonights game, and the even better news is that not only is Uggla out, but BJ is not in the starting lineup either.
We still might be underdogs, but at least our lineup tonight gives us the best chance we've got against Kershaw. The Dodgers being without Kemp and most likely Ethier is a plus as well.
At any rate I will be there, Go Braves!!!
