Ten Days in Atlanta - Games 31-40 (16-24)
The Braves picked up one more win than my last report, and they scored more than their opponents again, but they are still eight games below .500 as the struggles on the field and in the clubhouse continue.
Tim Hudson will be MIA through injury until the end of my next report, and morale is reported to have taken yet another hit after the series loss in Los Angeles, losing the last two games by a single run. Atlanta led in both games but Chris Reitsma blew both saves.
On the other side of the plate, walks have almost dried up completely as the offense has taken the decision to swing at pretty much everything coming their way, leading to easy groundouts and a very angry manager. Bobby Cox was ejected in several of the latest games and it may be this rash behaviour that is moving through the team. Surely things will get better soon?
