Gives up a bomb to Braun. This just ain't his night.

Behind a run and runners at 1st & 2nd with 2 outs and Freeman at the plate.

 

[death2redemptions]

I feel a strikeout coming...

 

[death2redemptions]

Nope...hits into the shift.

Freeman is the opposite of clutch. Pretty much everyone on this team is.

Down 1 run, runners at 2nd & 3rd with 1 out....too bad Castro is at the plate.

 

[death2redemptions]

Wait, they are pinch hitting with Brignac...not much of an upgrade though.

 

[death2redemptions]

Brignac fails, as advo.

 

[death2redemptions]

Braves are the worst offensive team in baseball, followed by the Padres.

 

[death2redemptions]

Markakis has been terrible in May. Hitting well below the mendoza line.

Didn't take long for Blair to implode...he just hasn't ever looked like a good pitcher. All his pitches are average or below average. No plus stuff. On top of that his command is pretty awful.

At best he'll become a bottom of the rotation pitcher but I can't imagine he'll amount to anything more than a bullpen arm, if he is able to stay in the majors at all.

 

[death2redemptions]

Back to the minors he goes after today's game...

Blair settled in and ended up pitching a decent game but couldn't get the quality start.
