re: The ATL Thread: The Debut of Mike Minor

Just got to watch the game..well until the 7th inning and I turned it off

What I got from it:

*Minor threw a wonderful game tonight. His only trouble was locating his offspeed when he got ahead in the count but he got away with that by locating his fastball beautifully. If it werent for two bloop hits, he shuts the Stros down and the game probably swings in a different direction

*Our defense is terrible. Gonzo may be an all around good defensive player throughout his career but has been less than stellar as a Brave and it seems to be rubbing off on everyone else on this team except Infante who has played a brilliant 2nd base in Prado's absence

*Farnsworth can't locate for shite and shouldn't be put into a close game right now

*I'm starting to believe in Chipper again. He's been putting really good swings on the ball lately and if he keeps it going, this team will be alright

Hopefully noone was overreacting in this thread like they usually do because it's just one poorly played game. Let's take the next two and call it a day

To Minor
