I have a feeling that there will be several moves by the Braves on Tuesday. Omar Infante should be about ready. Boone Logan is useless on this team so Buddy Carlyle can be called up for long relief to allow Medlen to pitch in more games. Not to mention the slugging RF in Mississippi.

Damn, great catch. Diaz robbed of a double. They can go get it in CF and RF….
Just saw scrawny ol’ Larry King getting up from his prime seats not far behind home plate. Scott Boras is in front row down there, as usual (late arriving, after going to Angels game earlier).
Jon Lovitz was here last night. Bowman saw Hal Linden (Barney Miller) before the game.
And the scenery down in those seats … uh, let me get back to watching the game.

Either reminds me of McLouth a couple of years ago when we played the Pirates. He seems to be in the middle of everything going on. Dude is everywhere.

And one more thing is I’d want a good return on him, because I think he’ll be a valuable starter someday. Not a top-of-the-rotation type, but a solid 3-4 guy. I’ve said that before, but I really like pitchers with (what I perceive to be) plus changeups.

Terry Pendleton: please tell your batters to take some pitches and make the pitchers work. Please!

This is the Dodgers 5th pitcher….we have used only 2 so far. So, the longer this goes, the better shape we are in…one would think. Though, I would like to win it now and go to bed.

N8………uh, the Braves have not scored very many runs with Kawakami on the mound. Why dont you check and see how many runs per game the Braves have scored for him? If Tim Hudson had pitched a shutout tonight, the game would STILL be going to extra innings.
Cole Hamels has an ERA approaching 5. Yet he doesnt have a losing record. Do you know why? Because the Phillies score a SH1T LOAD OF RUNS for him.

If Heyward does get called up, at least we won’t have to read about it from you on every fraking blog about how he SHOULD be called up.
So it will be a good thing either way!

Only 1 time in history has there been a manager traded for a manager (between the Indians and Tigers back in the day)….can we work out a trade for announcers? I like the enthusiasm of the White Sox announcers.
-”You can put it on the boooooooooooooooard, yes. Hell Yes.”
-”He gone.”

Now see what you’ve made me do? You’ve made me resort to name calling. That’s how flipping stupid your comprehension of the English language is. Do you recall on the other blog earlier today, me laughing my ass of at you stating that there was no “reasoning” with a fellow blogger?
You are a baffoon. And idiot. A moron. Is English your first language? Do you have a brain cell left in your head? Does your drivers liscence have a photo of two eggs and some bacon? Or is it of the back of your head, because you can’t figure out which way to face to face the camera?
NO SH!T SHERLOCK! That’s my point. Do you realize that you are helping to make my point? Do you have a point? Do you COMPREHEND the point I’m trying to make?
I don’t think you do.
My point is that KK gets no run support. The other starters get no run support. We lose most games because we don’t score enough runs. Not because we give up too many. Cy Young could be our 5th starter and we would still lose most of those games.
THAT is why it would be nice to have ANOTHER BAT in our lineup. THAT is why I’ve stated that KK wasn’t neccesary. NOT because I think he can’t pitch.
You should try Hooked on Phonics. It’s worked for many. Of course, I’m sure you’d have a tough time reading where you can get it.

I gotta question Bobby Cox for pinch hitting B-Mac there. He’s been sitting on the bench all night, and then has to come in and face a guy who’s throwing 96mph and gets to strike out. Well Ross could have done that just as well!
