Open Thread 9/2: Braves at Marlins

The only good fish is a dead fish! Let's see if the Braves can beat them further into third place in the division. They'll be doing so without Chipper Jones, who is apparently just getting a night off, though he does have a bit of a sore back. That might not be too big of an impact, since they've essentially been playing without Chipper for a couple of weeks because of his struggles. Of course, the Marlins are without Hanley Ramirez, so I guess that evens things out -- Thanks Florida!
