[DravenX]

(25-32) vs. (33-27)

6/7 Game 1: Rich Hill (4-4, 2.89 ERA) vs. Chuck James (5-4, 3.78 ERA)

6/8 Game 2: Sean Marshall (1-2, 2.25 ERA) vs. Lance Cormier (0-1, 18.00 ERA)

6/9 Game 3: Jason Marquis (5-2, 2.84 ERA) vs. Tim Hudson (6-4, 3.09 ERA)

6/10 Game 4: Ted Lilly (4-4, 3.99 ERA) vs. Buddy Carlyle (1-1, 4.50 ERA)

I'm going to be hard on the Braves until they get it together. The starting pitching is starting to look like crap. Anything other than a sweep here will be a failure.

We all know the Braves lost game 1 and 2. The Braves were able to manage to win game 3 even after Hudson left the game early in the 3rd inning.

Buddy Carlyle is replacing Smoltz for todays game on ESPN. I sure hope Carlyle can come through again but I won't hold my breath on it.

The Braves won Game 4 thanks to Salty's 3-4 night. Lilly was thrown out of the game in the 1st inning for hitting Renteria in the hand. Some heat between these two teams in which this is the last game between the Braves and Cubs this season.

The Braves are on the way to Minnesota for a 3-game series with the Twins. Game 1 will be Tuesday the 12th.
