I guess if you're going to lose a no-no

you could do worse than a solid single by Chipper.

Nice work, Mr. Wells. Looks like the Cubs might have a keeper.

definitely

looking like a keeper… you’d have to say he’s their most consistent starter over the last month…

hopefully he keeps this up!

OT

Apparently, the braves with the 7th pick in the draft are looking at a HS arm from georgia named Zach Wheeler.

He went to East Paulding High School, and I go to South Paulding High School. Luckily for me I play JV.

Odd seeing someone from a rival school possibly being drafted.

What was Marmol's excuse ?

At least Gregg had an error to deal with so the runs were UNEARNED and of course Marmol won’t be charged either
as he inherited the runners. Another 20 pitch plus outing from Marmol who Lou put in Sunday in the blowout.
