hard week for the bravos

It's not a good week to be a Brave.

From an article on atlantabraves.com:

Since arriving in Denver to start this four-game series, the Braves have dropped three straight against the Rockies, seen their closer Rafael Soriano go on the 15-day disabled list with a sore elbow and dealt with the disgust of knowing their top prospect Jordan Schafer has been given a 50-game suspension for using human growth hormone.

Today in Charleston, SC I wore shorts and a t-shirt, walked to class in the high 60's degree weather, and played an intramural softball game in the evening sun.
Today in Denver, Colorado the Atlanta Braves and Colorado Rockies had to postpone their game due to a signifcant amount of snowfall on the field and tempatures in the low 30's.

The game must be made up on June 16, orginally an off-day for both teams. Bobby Cox wishes otherwise.  "I'd rather play it, and so would the players. It's going to be hectic on an off-day. You'd always rather play. But it's impossible, you can't." 

Let's hope the Braves can have a strong weekend against the Nationals in DC.
