Wilson looks like he swallowed Troy Polamalu feet first and couldn't quite get him all down.

I hit send as the ball was released from Wilson's hand. A powerfully quick jinx!

You had me fooled. I was about 6 seconds behind on mlb.tv and I saw your post.

I still cant believe my friend (Braves fan) got fed up with Freeman, and dropped him about 1.5 months ago. He wasnt doing shit, really, but I took a chance and have vaulted from 4th place to 1st in fantasy. Not all Freeman, as my team is loaded and on fire, but still he is a big part.

He was real bad for a while. At one point he had something like 17 strikeouts in 18 at bats.

Yeah, he was horrible. But I had Hafner on the DL, and there wernt any other players worth keping pas like a hot stretch of 5 games or so. I took the chance on the guy with huge upside. Wow, was it ever worth it.

Yeah for sure. He was expected to be more of a gap to gap hitter until he matured a bit more. His power especially to the opposite field has been a pretty big surprise.

I was at the game Friday. He launched that ball to LCF.
