the braves' main weakness is hitting

[Myungwoo Nam]

so far the Braves scored 0 runs against a guy named Bottenfiled with 5 Ks in
3 innings, and they struggled badly against Kent mercker yesterday. Tucker
seems to strike out everytime with runners in scoring postion and Andruw
only does well in lopsided games. I guess the Braves will have difficult
time against the Astros Johnson, Hampton, and Reynolds...

[R. Brownstein]

Their offense sure has struggled for the past 15 innings, against a few
gents named Kent no less. Hmmmmmm.... What to do, what to do? Please
remember, the season is a marathon, not a sprint (tm). Freddie says relax.

I hate to tell people this, but the playoffs are supposed to be
somewhat difficult. I'm sure we'd all love it if the Braves simply
crushed everyone in their path, but that usually doesn't happen.

Trade for Jeff Kent???

Ayup. Plus, I didn't see this guy bitching when the BRaves were
smashing the Reds to smithereens.
