Braves - in 4th place at 66-85, 18 games out of 1st (that's us btw) in their final visit to Shea EVAH!!

Friday 7:00 (if it don't rain)
Santana vs Hampton (2-2; 5.60 in 9 starts)

Saturday 3:55 FOX (for some of you anyway)
Pedro vs Jo-Jo Reyes (don't know if he's a dancer?) - 3-10; 5.96 in 19 starts
another lefty, probably another day sitting for Castillo

Sunday 1:00
Ollie vs Jorge Campillo (7-7; 3.70)
Finally a RHP - Has been having a decent year for them and we've faced him twice early in the year (1 start, 1 relief) and have yet to score a run off him.
8 IP, 0 R, 3 Hits, 1 BB, 11 K


Lineup:
C - McCann mostly
1B - Casey Kotchmann was the return in the Teixeira trade. He then got hurt but is now back
2B - Kelly Johnson
SS - Yunel Escobar
3B - Chipper
RF - Francouer

The rest of the OF has been a ptchwork, manned most recently by two callups:
Brandon Jones - LHB, Braves draft pick (so he's got to be from the south-east ... yup, Panama City, Fla), 24 y/o, .268/.314/.412 in 97 ABs
Josh Anderson - also hit LH, out of the Houston system, 26 y/o; .288/.345/.400 in 80 ABs

You now know everything about those two guys that I do.


So do we miss Ruben Gotay? ... Eh, not too much: .223/.311/.340 in 94 ABs
