    Thumbs Down Reason 96 I dislike Derek Lowe

    7 walks. He should have been in the 8th or even 9th if he didn't decide to give free passes like prostitutes giving away free STDs to one of the worst lineups in baseball. Juan Uribe, two walks. JUAN URIBE!

    It's called an anomaly. He usually has great control. Of course, you're more than welcome to continue your dislike of him. I'm kind of on the fence. But you know he doesn't walk people like this. Plus we won and he's 2-0.

    He is 2-0 with his pitching so far thanks to some great offense. I wouldn't expect that kind of pitching to last too long. The Giants also had defense issues last night as well.

    Well Leake had 7 free passes today and we are praising him. Then again, we are just happy to see how he got out of the jams he created. Not bad for a debut from someone who skipped minor league ball altogether.

    I think Lowe will continue to strive. 7BBs is unconventional for him and we should all know that he will have his ups and downs.

    Strive? How is this striving? How was last year striving?

    How about focusing on Jo Jo Reyes who by some miracle is still playing baseball. This guy just plain sucks. I'm waiting for the day I read online somewhere that he gets hit with a bus or something. He does not belong with the Braves. When will they realize this? I hated when I found out that he made the club cause of what he did in SP.
