Too bad it took game 160 of the season for Bobby tol leave a pitcher in so that he could possible pick up a win…

Another inconsistant showing by the AWFense however

Very funny, couple of them.

The Soriano and Norton ones I’m assuming :lol:

Soph – Only 6 points (somehow) but they had allowed about 250 yards of total defense in the first half. They’ve been solid this half though. Hope this doesn’t jinx them…

Tomahawkin, I don’t agree with you… not that my opinion matters, but. The only time Cox made me mad taking out a starting pitcher this year was Hanson in Houston. Other than that, the offense is the majority of the reason why JJ/Vazquez/Hanson don’t have more wins than they do, not Bobby.

Lundquist said it…..these two teams have completely reversed. LSU only has SIX yards this half.

Tomahawkin, also, check out JJ & Javy’s innings pitched this year & you can see Bobby has let them pitch as deep in a game as is safe.

2nd and 15….let’s do a draw up the middle and screen pass. The football equivalent of pinch hitting Norton and Conrad.

NICE kick!

TNBrian…

My bad, In my last post I was making reference to Bobby not letting guys not go longer when they are well below 100 pitches pitched during the game…For Example the Hanson Shutout that was F’d up in Houston, among others

It’s coming down to the wire in Athens…

soph, jeff, tomahawkin – add me on fb … unless you’re like super secretive lol.

so we lost? last time i looked it was 2-2. so wanted jj to get that 15th win.

Oh, he picked his nose earlier. But, if Brooks batted then that’s another slot.

Not looking good for UGA…Argh!

I can see the Yankees or Red Sox signing Soriano next year to set up Rivera or Papelbon. They’d be the only team willing to sign a set up man $9m a year.

“I can see the Yankees or Red Sox signing Soriano next year to set up Rivera or Papelbon. They’d be the only team willing to sign a set up man $9m a year.”

Good Call, I have been calling out some similiar scenario as well

I’m Banking on MFIKY Or Gonzo Selling out To Omar Minaya and The NY Mess

I’m gonna call it MFIKY sells out to Whinebrenner and the Bankees and Gonzo Sells out to Minaya and the New York Mess as a set up man, “Bank On It!”

Don’t Forget the cubs as well they will be looking to strengthen up their relief corps. They have the money to do so…

The braves F.O. would be wise not to get into a bidding war over those 2

I can’t believe we’re going to extra innings. Fox is loving this, don’t you know? Riiight….

Moylan’s in. It isn’t an official game until Moylan enters….

They’ve been playing thank-you messages from individual Braves on the video board between innings the past couple of days.

Can anyone guess who got the loudest ovation during his message?

Bobby Cox.

Since I have to watch the Redskins comedy show tomorrow today will no doubt be some of my last blogs.

Despiter some classic losses where we gave away the game, and probalby the playoffs, and I will blame Bobby, it was a pretty decent bounce back after the last two years.

A great big bat is what we obviously need. Someone to put fear into the other guys and ultimatly make the other hitters better would be ideal. chipper is no longer a three hitter and McCann is not a clean up hitter. We do seem to have a plethera of #6 hitters, but maybe LaLa can hit 4 with the Big Bopper in the three hole.

Anyways I do want you all to take note that I went to France and England for two weeks and you guys brought us a 15-2 record since I got home tuesday the record is zippo and 4.

Have we hit a granny yet?

Free baseball not needed this time of year

Nate McLouth is still a fourth OF masquerading as a starting CF.

I don’t think that’s fair from Sheehan. Career .350 wOBA and above .360 2 of the last three years. That’ll play in CF on any contender. I suppose he could be basing his argument on the theory that he doesn’t play defense well enough in CF to really be of value, but I don’t agree with that. I don’t think he’s a good defender there, but I also don’t think he’s terrible, as some stats would suggest.
