Non only have BJ and Heyward been cold, but so have Uggla and Simmons. The Braves have basically done this with only half of the lineup producing. This just speaks to how awesome J-Upton and Gattis have been. Chris Johnson too. Most people overlooked him when the trade happened, but I loved his inclusion. Putting a guy like him in the 6 or 7 hole is a luxury.

Maholm also went the last 24-2/3 of spring training allowing zero earned runs. Dude is just locked in right now. Another example of a low-profile acquisition that is paying off big time.

I know we're not supposed to get too excited about a hot streak in April, but this team is really, really good. It's going to be a fun season.

Another amazing win. I was listening to the game via radio. Sounda like Avilan is pretty bad. Hoping for a speedy recovery.

5 HR's today. We survived 3 errors to win, including Uggla's 4th of the season. Medlen with a solid line. Fransisco with 2 of the HR's.

And the steak ends with a 1-0 loss today. I officially jinxed the team. Good start by minor though.

Guess we used up all the homers for the series last night. Back on the road tomorrow!

Both Uptons, C Johnson, and Gattis hit HR's today to beat Pirates. Gattis's was a pinch hit HR.

Heyward, BJ Upton, Simmons, and Uggla continue to struggle.

4 shutout innings for the bullpen. Varvaro gets the win.

Yesterday was the 3rd straight game Julio Tehran was bailed out by the offense and bullpen. I know he's young and talented but Julio needs to start performing.

The Braves are undefeated when they score at least 1 run. Both losses were shutouts...

I've never understood the hype with him. I hope I'm wrong.

Make that 3 shutout losses. The offense is either or or it's not. No in between.

14 hits for the Braves in game 2. Teheran pitched 7 innings with only 1 ER. Thats probably the best news. Schafer has also been quietly putting up solid numbers when he gets chances.

Wish we could have had some of those runs in Pittsburgh. J-Up is just pounding the ball right now. When B.J. figures it out consistently, it's gonna be crazy.

Kimbrel with the blown save. Extra inning loss.

That was one of the most painful things I have ever watched. Maholm rocked for 8, starter for the Tigers strikes out 18. I get that our offense is going with the "big fly or strikeout" approach, but that was pathetic.

Swept by the Tigers and now have lost 4 in a row overall. Really glad that road trip is over. Let's get back in the win column tonight at home against the Nats. Gonna be tough just looking at the pitching matchup though...Strasburg vs. Teheran.
