    3-game demolition of the Phils.

    I put the question mark in the title of the thread, because obviously now, i've probably jinxed it and they'll go 3-159, but you have to love the way the rotation has looked so far in a tough ballpark against a good hitting club.

    Lowe, Jurrijens and Vazquez all earning wins (barring the Braves holding onto a big lead today in the 7th).

    no more than a minute after making this thread, the bullpen is working steadily on blowing the 10-3 lead.

    bullpen imploded.

    Phils score 8 in the 7th. Take the lead.

    Shame on me.

    Hopefully this jinx will carry over into their next series.... We could use a little help like an 8 run inning

    I followed them from Montreal. My family is from the Buffalo, NY area so I spent alot of time up there when I was younger and picked them up.

    If those buttholes go and make the playoffs after I move out of Atlanta and drop my season tickets I will be srsly ticked off.

    4-1 so far. :)

    the starting pitching has been superb.

    The bullpen = not so much.

    New stance = same results for Jeff Francoeur, but we can't win 'em all, right?

    Just wait until Tommy Hansen comes up. :) Dude is a k machine.

    you do realize you've doomed them to a 5th place finish in the division, right?

    how did Kamikaze (or whatever the hell he calls himself) do last night?
