DBS - - Atlanta Braves 2005 Part Three

Ten Days in Atlanta - Games 21-30 (13-17)

Home cooking isn't what it used to be. An awful stretch of games with three shutouts in a row and a 2-3 record in one-run games.  Part of the reason is the injury to Chipper Jones, as there is an obvious lack of production with just twenty runs scored, and another reason could be the contract negotiations with Chris Reitsma causing a distraction.

With one injury out of the way, another one rears it's head for the second of the Jones boys as Andrew Jones has picked up an undisclosed injury and will continue to play. Inside sources however say he will need surgery and that will have to wait until the season is done. The outfield in general has found itself in a bit of a state with it's defensive duties.

The Atlanta and baseball media has been sharing their thoughts on the roster moves of Bobby Cox, and they all agree he has made some odd choices.
