Good stuff DOB, I said just before the all star break that Esco was our best player this year and he seems to be living up to it now that this trade stuff is in the rearview mirror. I just checked some stats and it just solidified my thinking that the Braves go as CJ goes. I new he had played more than usual this year but I did not know that he led the team in games played. That is impressive considering the last couple of years, now I know he has fewer ab’s than Laroche, Mclouth, and Esco but BC has taken him out of most of the games that are outta hand. Point is his numbers may be down, but just having him in the lineup makes everybody more comfortable and confident. We definitely need Martin back soon but Omar is still real good. Regarding the article about Hanson and the ROY award, I hate to say it but he is gonna get hosed. Jeff Francoeur got hosed in 05′ when he had comparable offensive numbers to Ryan Howard and had incredible defense compared to Howards putrid defense in almost 20 less games. Last year Jair Jurrjens didn’t even get a good look because Geo Soto played for the Cubbies. Point is, the Phils are espn’s darlings now and Happ has had a good year and is gonna be a real good player, but Tommy is clearly the more dominating pitcher and any team would take Hanson over Happ for the future.

Also, admired Page greatly for the sounds he created, but thought he was a little over-rated as a player.
Oh man, no way. Page is a tremendous player. If anyone’s a little overrated as a player, it’s Hendrix (but he’s still a helluva player, don’t get me wrong).

fastballs, not trying to be a smart a&& but when can a team really use a “loss” by your logic that the Braves really need to win today
You need to be winning every game (you won’t be), but you have to go with that mindset.

Supes, I think I explained the logic fairly well in my post. Every win counts the same in the standings, but some wins can count a lot more to the team’s psyche especially this point in the season.
By winning they pass the Marlins in the standings, gain a game on the Giants or Rockies & carry some momentum into the Padres series. A loss means they lose ground to two teams they are chasing in the WC & may erode a little confidence.
That’s just the way I see things.

Here’s the thing about college: They’re mostly reading the same books in the Ivy League schools as they are in any other college, and the professors all mostly suck, except for the handful you end up really liking even though your friends think those professors suck too. It’s not the school or the professors. You get out of it what you put into it. And if all you get out of it is how to party, network, socialize and live on your own, you’re still better off for having gone ’cause it often seems those skills are just as important or more in the real world as your knowledge and ability to do your job.

A bunch of Marlins players were there too, Uggla, Coghlan, Pinto, Hanley Ramirez, and I think Paulino. I talked to Uggla, who said “I haven’t done sh*t against them this year” in reference to the Braves. It was a fun night. Glad we got the picture. Go Braves

Steve OH – Hendrix was a freaky talented guy, rh guitar played lh upside down and he played lead, rhythym at once, just a freak of nature…
Braveheart – the purpose of college is to learn how to learn, anything additional is a bonus. I think of the 1000s of hours I studied and I think most of my knowledge when I worked as an engineer was self taught “on the job”. However, that which i gained at college gave me the nouse to know how to learn and where to look for information to learn more… if that makes sense

Jeff Francouer was tailing off at the end of his rookie year, and Howard was getting better. Howard deserved the honor as their subsequent careers has shown. I agree that Hanson is the better long-term prospect, but right now Happ has slightly better numbers. If Hanson is to overtake Happ, the Braves will have an opportunity to readjust those number in their next two meetings with the Phils.
The ROY does not always go to the best long-term player. In 1954 Wally Moon beat out Hank Aaron for the honor, and in ‘95 Nomo beat out Chipper. Fred Lynn beat out his teammate, Jim Rice, in their rookie year (and was MVP also), and didn’t Joe Charboneau win the award?

As a special education teacher (and mother of an autistic child), I absolutely loved the story about Lowe and LaRoche and their ADHD. I’m not going to get into any of the politics of it. I just thought it was very well-written. And kudos to both Lowe and LaRoche for going public with their situation.
What DOES drive me crazy (slightly off topic) are parents whose kids have meds, have been told to use them, but don’t. Mondays are hell at school from all the kids who were off their meds all weekend. Just my thoughts.

Ashley, is it just because they were off their meds all weekend, or because their parents just let the kids lay about the house all weekend getting no exercise while they loaded the kids up with sugar and all other kinds of crappy food so that their brain chemistry goes haywire with all the chemicals being dumped into it, and their bodies never flush it out with sweat and good ole fun, play, and exercise?
Obviously, alot of people legitimately have ADHD, and do need meds like Lowe and Laroche, but I do believe it is very often overdiagnosed and overmedicated, especially in children when better parenting, more stability, more structure, more exercise, better nutrition could fix what appears to be an ADHD problem, or at least mitigate the symptoms of it.

Braveheart,
Obviously I can’t speak for EVERY ADHD kid out there, and I’m sure your scenario is correct in many cases. But I know several students who told me, “I didn’t take my medication this weekend/last night/yesterday. My mom never gave it to me.” One kid became so good at passing the buck that he started blaming ANY social or academic faux pas on the fact that “well, I didn’t have my medication today.”
True story.

Prado’s feeling better, though still having slight headaches when he wakes. But medication is beginning to work, or so it seems, at least. He was going to take BP at about 70 percent in indoor cage right before game today, then maybe take infield and everything on Tuesday. Still no target date for return, but I’d guess it could be during Padres series….
Garret said his hip/back (that joint there in right side) is feeling better and he’s aiming for Tuesday return. He, too, was going to hit before game.
It’s family day here, so Braves didn’t take BP or anything before game. Had all their kids and wives on the field right up to 90 minutes before game.

I have never allowed my child to use his disability as an excuse. And I’m proud of that. We’ve told him that yes, he has autism (actually asperger’s but more people are familiar with autism) but he’s still responsible for his own choices. It would have been so easy to let society write him a blank check in sympathy (”Oh it’s not HIS fault!”) But that wouldn’t help him long term.

5. Escobar SS
6. McCann C / LaRoche 1B

OK times up. The reason is that dolt of a manger that we have that keeps guys like Kelly Johnson in the line up for half a season when Prado is there, keeps running a pinch hitter out there that wouldnt make most AA teams & making a line up with his current top power threat not in the 4 hole. That is why we are 4 back in the WC.

DOB – this reference is going to hurt you, but for the Braves, today is another turning point. A fork stuck in the road.
Today the Braves can move into 2nd place by themselves in the East and 3rd in the Wild Card standings. They will also either gain a game on the Rockies or get one game closer to 2nd in the Wild Card Race Giants. They will also take 2 out of 3 against a prime competitor such as the Marlins while missing multiple starters due to injury.

Hopefully McLouth’s injury will not be a nagging one now that the Braves have put him on the shelf for 2 weeks. If it does become an injury that keeps him out, Gorecki is not an option as an everyday CF. Where do the Braves go? I would assume that would put Church in CF long term with Diaz in RF and Anderson in LF. Would Schafer be an option as a sometimes starter, backup OF, defensive replacement in the OF?????

You mentioned current bands and named a few you thought I might try, etc. Hey, there are plenty of great current bands and bands of the past decade or two (like Pearl Jam, which you mentioned; but I sure don’t put Offspring among the great ones).
Dude, you should listen to some Spoon, Black Keys, My Morning Jacket, Wilco, Calexico, Kings of Leon, Son Volt, the aforementioned Drive-By Truckers, Son Volt, Art Brut, Handsome Furs, Grizzly Bear, Heartless Bastards, Mastodon, Bon Iver, Dinosaur Jr., Rage Against the Machine, North Mississippi Allstars, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Black Lips, Deerhunter, Dead Prez, and so many more … And there are dozens of terrific, current solo artists in the rock/country/soul/rap genres, from James McMurtry to Steve Earle, Ryan Bingham to M.I.A, Hayes Carll to James Hand, Cat Power to M. Ward, Richard Buckner to Josh Rouse, Neko Case to Mos Def, Steve Wynn to Josh Ritter, Sharon Jones to Kanye West, Greg Brown to Jamey Johnson, Dwight Yokum to Hank III, etc, etc.

DOB, like your top 5 bands, I think 20 yrs. from now consensus will be holding U2 in that regard.

Yeah, I love seeing Prado mess with those handshakes/high fives of his. I think he does a different one with each teammate too.

Game Time…
I hope the Awfense keeps being aggressive on the basepaths like they were last night with a few exceptions…
It seems like we hit better when our runners are baggressive and force the issue rather than sit back and play for the 3-run homer which results in DP’s

Seems apparent with your comment on McLouth you don’t appreciate his abilities. Which to me is absurd. It appears people who do write on this blog and claim to be a fan of this club use them to take out their aggression and frustrations on a baseball team trying to do their job and win baseball games.
