Open Thread, July 28, #Braves vs. the Matt Drudges

The Braves have scored 34 runs in their past 15 games. They’ll face a pitcher tonight, one-time no-hit artist Ubaldo Jiminez, who has allowed 14 runs in his past two starts.

Maybe the Bravos can scratch out two, three tonight. Good luck, Julio. Maybe the offense will improve once Freddie gets back into the swing.

Fredi should be hitting and running and stealing and generally trying anything to spark some kind of offense.
