Thinking positive this team has been somewhat resilient this year. Someway, somehow they need to win the first game of this series(or amy series) tomorrow. I think it’s happen before, maybe in July. 3 games back heading into September is somewhat manageable. 4 games out, dunno.

Philly fan, you’re the kind of fan that packs that LL ballpark and pouts with tears in your eyes when your team trails in a game, yet gets as arrogant as you can when they win. I say you are a COWARD that tucks his/her tail between your legs and runs away like a bi**! Philly is a VERY disgusting, low down sh** hole from just about everything I’ve heard so it makes sense that you losers act the way you do.

On July 13th, Kelly Johnson was called back up from his rehab assignment in Triple A, resulting in Brooks Conrad being sent down.
I stated at the time that Greg Norton should have been released instead of Conrad being sent down. I was bombarded with “it doesnt matter who the 25th guy on the roster is” and “Greg Norton is a proven Major League pinch hitter while Brooks Conrad is a career Minor Leaguer”.
Well, since Brooks Conrad was sent down, Greg Norton is 4 for 19 with 2 RBIs and ZERO extra base hits. For the month of August, Norton is 2 for 12.
Brooks Conrad is a pinch hitter with a little pop in his bat. I find it hard to believe that he wouldnt have better stats than Greg Norton if Norton had been released instead of Conrad being sent down.
Norton SUCKS. I dont care what his life story is. All I care about is what his production (or lack of) is on the field of play.

Lance,
What exactly comes across to you that this team is not playing with urgency? Kawakami and company let one get away in the Pads series or else we take 2 of 3. McCann rips one right at Utley or else we tie the game and still are batting in the eighth. I don’t understand how quickly some are to judge this team, when they have played so well over the past 2 months. And with the pitching being as it has all year and the bats much improved since the break, I’m not willing to give up on this team until all the games have been played and we’ve been mathematically eliminated. Just doesn’t make sense to root for a team that has been playing good ball and still well in striking distance to a playoff spot. Not that kind of fan, maybe some of you are, but I like to think we still have a shot at this and continue rooting for this club til my heart sinks because there is no more Braves baseball til next year.

njbraves, he can’t catch up to a 88-89 MPH fastball right down the gut. If the man isn’t injured, and apparantly he’s not, any person would think something isn’t right. Yeah, I hope Chipper proves me and others wrong, but I’m worried.

“Maybe Jurrjens for Ian Kinsler?”
Or just wait it out man. Hopefully, one day soon Tommy Hanson and Jair Jurrjens will have that good offense behind them. Cain and Lincecum had to suffer through it last year, Cain more than Lincecum. For the braves the future looks bright, for the phillies this is their heyday, and for the mets well, bodies getting older but hey at least they have a good farm, no not really I guess.

This was a game that continues to expose how good our starting pitching has been. . .
And a game that really exposed how unathletic we are in the field. But again, every time I write this some of the blog homers continue to dispute that. If you watched the game and dispute that, you need to take off the blinders.
How Chipper was surprised on the bunt I’ll never know, and our DH-laden outfield tonight again couldn’t get to a key ball. Again, it cost us.
3 1/2 back still says we have a chance, but another missed chance. We need athletes.

See folks? Bobby Cox’s stubbornness is what holds the Braves back. I’m not saying anyone else would have hit a home run, but seriously, WHY NORTON????? Why not Infante, or Ross, or even Kelly Johnson? WHY not bat someone who at least has the power to tie the game up? Trotting Norton up there was akin to waving the white flag.

Norton is not the reason we are in the position we are in. He’s horrible, I get it. I don’t have a clue why he is still on the roster but the games we’ve lost recently are not because he’s been coming to the plate. When was the last time Matt Stairs got a hit? Philly seems to be doing allright without their top pinch hitter getting on base. Can’t expect McCann to bunt in that situation either.

Wow. I’m going Norton. I have zero expectations for the Chiefs to win anything this year. So ultimately, Norton is more of a sore spot for me.
Wanna hear something wierd with the Pioli/Patriots connection? A couple of weeks back the Chiefs picked up QB Matt Guitierrez (formerly with the Patriots). The Patriots just released Kevin O’Connel (the order of the waiver wire is Detroit, St. Louis and KC), so there is a good chance the Chiefs make a claim on O’Connel.
Meaning that with the trade for Matt Cassell, Guitierrez already on the roster and O’Connel possibly on the way, (ready for this….?), if the Chiefs were to dump Brodie Croyle and Tyler Thigpen, there is a chance that they have all three of the guys that backed up Brady on their roster to start the season.
Not likely (dumping both Brodie and Thigpen), yet a little odd to say the least.

And we had an opportunity in the 8th and we couldn’t do it. Got within 1 point with no outs and an infield full of base runners and we couldn’t do anything with that…I mean, that’s Bobby’s fault?

I literally think I would throw a batting helmet at Bobby Cox right now if I could.
We’re like Brad Lidge’s slump buster. He doesn’t even have to try. Everybody else, it’s a blown save. We just don’t even bother.
That was pathetic. We are to him what the Mets are to us. Anytime we need to regain our focus and start winning again, the Mets are always there.
My prediction before the series was that the Braves would score 20 runs. I just don’t get how it’s either all or nothing. Nine runs last night and then… WTF?!
You can’t win @#$% if you play like that. And we lost on a f***ing error. That’s just sickening.
Yet another game against the Phillies we should have won.
At first I was happy to just be deflated and say the better team won but this just isn’t acceptable.
I’m sure Greg Norton isn’t happy with the way this year is going but he sure as hell should be. He should be grateful he gets a paycheck and gets to travel and stay in frist class hotels. He’s a ****ing tourist. It’s like he won a contest. I’d love to win a contest where I could hang out with the Braves and do nothing to help them win.
I’m not blaming him for the entire game, actually I’m kind of disappointed in McCann but it’s one thing for the everyday players to miss opportunities… which they did… it’s another thing for guys who have no right being on a baseball field to be given every chance and continue to fail and nothing happens.
We’re in a wild card race. Are we really doing everything possible to win baseball games?
No we’re not!

But there have been numerous times when we could have had a MUCH better chance at winning if someone else had gotten the key pinch-hit appearance instead of Norton! I can remember ONE game this year where Norton got a game-winning hit, but there have been so many more (like tonight) where he just flat-out choked! You never know; had that at-bat gone to someone like Infante or Ross, we could still be playing right now! There was certainly a better chance for that with one of them! Maybe if Norton had been released and Conrad kept up, Brooks could have won a game or two for us. And how sweet would it be to have two less games to make up in the Wild Card race? I’m not saying that would definitely have happened; we’ll never know. But don’t you think we would have had a better shot?

“Can I get an explanation on how this one is on Bobby?”
Give me one good reason, besides anything before this season, that Chipper should be getting the AB’s in the 3-hole. Add to that…. Greg Norton. While he’s (Bobby) not responsible for him being on the 25 man roster, he IS responsible for using him before KJ and Infante with only one out to spare in the game.
People often talk about a good bullpen turning games into 6 inning games. Well, when Greg Norton is the first option off the bench, Bobby turns the game from a 27 out contest into a 26 out game. Period.
But in the end, Chipper and Loaf’s defense cost us this game.

Look at that Philly lineup… go on their roster and check out their HR/RBI totals this year and it really sinks in how great Jurrjens is. Some of you are suggesting trading this kid? Y’all are NUTS! He has carved those hitters to shreds all year and he gets rewarded with shi*** D and no run support.
And yes, McCann had a shi*** at bat in the 8th. Terrible at bat from so many perspectives that he should be ashamed. Hitting that rocket saved him from getting torched on here, but he acted as if he was batting in front of Chris Woodward in a tie game with 2 outs and nobody on. PATHETIC!

DOB writing about Matty D thereby jinxing him to go hitless (LOL), JJ walking Ibanez followed by Chipper’s error followed by, I guess, Loaf not having the speed of a 19 year old.

After watching tonight this was the exact type game that a Heyward could help with. The Braves royally screw up(read:Chipper) but find themselves needing a big bat to provide some heroics but instead send in Norton. I rest my case. Bring up Heyward and the arb issue be damned.
I applaud Steve Phillips for saying we may be seeing the end is getting near for Chipper. He looks old and his defense is not good. Chipper’s contract will be a problem for Atlanta come 2011. it is extremely doubtful we can keep Chipper as the everyday 3rd baseman after 2010. It will be interesting to see what happens. Meanwhile can we move Chipper out of the 3 hole? Nah that would make too much sense.
Good to see Garret’s error changed. Clearly a double but without a doubt many many outfielders would have made that catch. Another quality start and tough loss for JJ.

the Braves (Bobby) are not doing everything they can to win. Why does Infante not even play and Norton does. This is why there is such dissatisfaction with Cox. Simple, there is a power struggle in the organization between Cox and Wren and if Cox wins the organization will lose. Wren has given Bobby the rope he needs this year and hopefully Bobby will bow out gracefully. There are plenty of organizations who would want Wren. How many would want Bobby?

That’s good. My cousin wanted to take me to that museum but ran out of time when I was there.
And I’m still having fun watch people tear each other apart…
I usually do too but not enjoying it as much today. It’s sort of irritating tonight.

Hey all you Conrad bashers. How bout that Norton! I’m sure glad we didn’t have that career minor leaguer Conrad up. He probaly would have gone down on three straight strikes. Hey you Conrad bashers, ain’t you glad we didn’t have that career minor leaguer Conrad up here to screw things up. Yea, he’d probaly made 2 outs with 3 strikes, a first in major league baseball. You know how those career minor leaguers are. Yea, I’m talking about Conrad. You Conrad bashers, yall remember him. I believe I’ve got it now, he’s a career minor leaguer.

Please excuse my grammar. But it’s the only way I feel equal to you swamp retards… One World Series and all those consecutive division titles. Don’t get me wrong, it was impressive.It had to be the curse of the Toma Hawk.. Why? Who did the Braves beat to win the WS? You guessed it. The Cleveland Indians. I rest my case. Racists -astards. bye,bye losers.

Jake W., post more often. You tell it better than myself and a lot on here can. I agree, we are fortunate to not be 8 out in the WC with that list of guys missing in action. 3 1/2 back with 32 games to go is plenty of time. Never an easy pill to swallow losing to that Philly team in their place, but it is what it is.

I know Norton will get out of it. You fans need to calm down. I have everything under control. I know it doesnt looks that way, but need to have faith on our boys, they will get all their act together. We need Norton to get his timing back cause if we get any closer to the rockies Im planning on playing him at 1B for that final push. This is the best team I have ever managed. Guys are so tough minded you just wouldnt believe it (not even I believe it, as a matter of fact). We are bringing you the WS rings this season, thats a fact. Count on it.

Its ok, I never liked Harry Potter and I enjoyed it…
I usually do too but not enjoying it as much today. It’s sort of irritating tonight.

I’ve had ENOUGH of you fair-weather Atlanta sports fans!
Can’t you at least be reliably classless and obnoxious?
You know, like Philadelphia fans?
