3 pm observation at KATL: wind out of the north at 16 mph, with gusts to 21 mph, visibility 10 miles, few clouds at 6,000 feet, broken clouds at 30,000 feet, temperature 89F, DP 60F.
Forecast: A hot summer night. The front has moved to the east and we're seeing the wind shift now. The winds are gusty, and will remain in the 10-20 mph range this evening. The air mass is still humid, at least by New England standards, but it's looking like a pleasant summer evening in Hot-lanta! Right now there's some cirrus debris left over from the rain that cleared out this morning, but it should be later this afternoon and clear tonight.
The wind will be blowing in from left/left center.

Isn't the radio feed always a second or two behind the tv? Therefore, you will hear what happens after already seeing it. That would be quite annoying.

This is true. But I have to watch most games on Gameday and not actually see the games, so I'll take what I can get.

Yes.. good point. I left out the tivo... I just pause the tv and let the radio catch up...

Curses, an underlined word that isn't a link....I've been duped again!
Let's hope that Tavarez can keep it going, he's been doing well of late (3-0 in last six starts, including 2 games in which he went 7 IP).
I really enjoy watching Tavarez pitch....or rather, his pointing, hand pumping & other forms of body language between pitches.
WIN

Lowell is sitting again?
I guess they decided to rest his thumb.

It makes sense to rest him. That way he can have three days off in a row. He's been having trouble at the plate, and the time off makes sense now, when they have to sit one player - Lowell, Youkilis, or Ortiz.
JD has been coming around.
Love me some lead off homers!
Nice start for the J-Dizzle.
does this mean we may have to start liking JD
And Pedroia with a smash 2B... good start so far.
Bring Manny on home, Youk...er, Tek....
Dang, won't even give him a chance. Crispy Hot?

How did that work out for you Hotlanta?

Wow. Crisp is doing excellent ^^ Can we expect a second one, Coco? 
Coco is back beeeeetches!
At this rate, Coco is going to pass Papi for HRs here in a few days

I was just thinking that same thing...weren't there all kinds of made up "Coco + Hansen for Andruw Jones" rumors or something like that in the offseason?
The HR's Crisp has been hitting have all been no doubters. I think we can now officially welcome the Coco Crisp that Theo thought he was signing to Boston.

Yikes, this thread is getting gross....
Where'd JD go?
why would they do that JD could go for the cycle and gain some confidence
Two questions:
1) The Atlanta feed showed Youks driving Manny by his hair. WTF was that about?
2) What happened to Drew?

Well then. I guess I know who I'm inviting next time I have tickets to the buffet.
There goes my triple and single for JD. I hope it's a "Tavarez has Cy Young stuff, so this one's already over. Let's get WMP some ABs" move, and not a "JD hurt himself because he's had so little practice actually running the bases this year."

2) What happened to Drew?
He looked to pull up early and cruise into second instead of go all out, at least round the second base bag, and look for his 3rd base coach to see if a triple might be there. Hate to say it, but that sounds like a hammy or other leg injury.
Okay, color me stupid: why does tavarez hit Lefty and pitch righty? Has he always batted lefty?
