The ATL Thread

After a split of a two game series with the Reds, we now have another two game series. This time with the Fish, which will be our first time facing them this year. They come in playing their best baseball of the year, going 11-3 over the last 14. Here are the pitching matchups:

Tonight (6:10) - LH Mark Buehrle (2.81 ERA) vs Minor (6.59 ERA)
Tomorrow (6:10) - RH Ricky Nolasco (3.65 ERA) vs Beachy (Major League best 1.60 ERA)

Tonight worries me a bit with Minor on the hill and us facing a soft tossing lefty but if we can figure out a way to win, I feel good about our chances of the two game sweep. Hopefully Minor can put together a solid outing from start to finish because if he doesn't, Jurrjens could be back sooner rather than later.

Lineup:

Pastornicky SS LULZ
Prado LF
Freeman 1B
Uggla 2B
Mac C
Diaz RF
Heyward CF
Francisco 3B
