Welcome to Atlanta


another Atlanta series ends in derailment
Just when you were starting to feel good about this team again...
What a sad weekend. Here are some quick hitters:

  • Snell and Gorzo both getting hit hard.

  • After a month or so of decent fielding, new gaffs with the gloves.
  • Jose Castillo can't make a play that 52 year old Chipper Jones makes easily...against Castillo!

not our Jose Castillo, but I heard he beats out an occasion infield hit.
In typical Bucco fashion, a junk heap journeyman, Buddy Carlyle, looked like another Cy Young candidate. This is the guy who spent 7 years away from the Majors, playing in baseball towns such as Las Vegas, Omaha, Seoul (Korea), and Hartford. Against us, 8 innings, 1 earned run. Yeah, that's about right.



Buddy Carlyle even gave us a little junk ala Phil Niekro...which, of course, we couldn't hit.
Well, I did promise more pictures of girls. This cutie follows the Braves. I think there is a direct correlation between quality of the team and hotness of the female fans...


when we interviewed her, she said she wasn't going to settle down with just any 72 win team

I think I see Nutting driving that train...or is it Tracy? Hopefully there were a lot of fatalities and we can start over.

...and another thing...why is Mark Cuban wanting to buy the Cubs? He is a Pittsburgh native! A couple billion dollars (yeah he is a three comma) and someone who knows how win would be a good thing. It is really gonna piss me off if that goes through and they end up winning.

At least the Phillies lost #10K.

The JCS Blue Jays teams of the mid-1980's had more talent than these Buccos.

Everyone got all erect over a few wins leading up to the break. Don't kid yourself. This team does not have the talent or the coaching to succeed and never will under Nutbag, McCrappy and Shittlefield.

It's a fucking shame that the players are feeling good because they were not 30 under .500 at the break like last year. That just tells you where the expectations are.

I am with pissed off Anthony. Cuban would be great for Pittsburgh.

Why can't the Rooneys own both teams? Last night's failed comeback is a true statement of Bucco baseball. Just a little too little. Time to start throwing batteries.

Pork Parker never liked the battery game
