Number of the Day: Kimbrel's 40th
In Atlanta Braves, In Bravos, In Craig Kimbrel, In MLB, In number of the day, In TeachAugust 24, 2011
I know, you were probably expecting something on a richter scale, or maybe some hyperbole about how I survived the most devastating disaster to hit the east coast since I-95, Pilgrims, or the British in 1812. But, no, the number we're talking about is Craig Kimbrel's rookie record 40th save. He's carried my fantasy team. He's anchoring the Braves' bullpen. It's August, and I'm not sure what's more depressing the start of school or the fact that the NBA may not have a season; so let's converse over baseball.
(This is also that annual summer tradition where I start to get my hopes too high.)
