Quotes from Braves after Tuesday’s loss
BOBBY COX
“The score could have been a lot lower, but he just didn’t have his location tonight. And his slider was not a Tommy Hanson-type slider.”
When someone asked about the tight strike zone: “Tim McClellan’s a very good umpire. You’ve got to get a lot of the plate, but everybody knows that. That wasn’t the problem. Location was the problem.”
On the homer: “That came after the ball went down the shirt. That would have been the third out.”
On that play: “But that ball was hit hard, too. He just had a bad night trying to position the ball.”
On Braves’ generally strong pitching: “We had a bad-pitched game Sunday, I guess. That was Kawakami. [But] we’ve done really well.”
On Hanson being 4-0 with ERA near 2 in five starts between his two bad ones: “Tommy’s been fine. I’ll take him every time out. What’s he had, two bad games all year?”
On mounting something of a ninth-inning threat: “We did. We had ‘em going. Guys are swinging good.”
TOMMY HANSON
“I just didn’t really make my pitches, and they let me know. Seemed like every fastball I threw over the plate, they crushed it. And I just didn’t hit my spots tonight. It was actually pretty embarrassing.”
On comparing this start to his May 20 Cincy debacle: “It was definitely different against Cincinnati. Tonight I just felt like whatever pitches I threw up there, they were hitting. I really don’t even know what to say. It should be interesting to watch the video on it. I definitely don’t want to watch it right now. But, uh, I don’t know. Seemed like there was quite a few times I made my pitch and they hit a bloop here, end-of-the-bat here, and the next thing you know they hit a line drive in the gap.
“I feel like I’d start the inning off good and then I just couldn’t quite get that last out a couple of times. They’re a good lineup. You go out there and you don’t make your pitches, you don’t get three outs, they’re going to put runs on the board. And that’s what happened.”
On the freaky play (ball in Conrad’s shirt): “That’s just kind of the way the day was going today. When that happened … I was out there just trying to battle and get through it, and most of the time when you’re having days like that, it’s just not going your way. Today was one of those days.”
On hittig Pierre with pitch in the five-run third inning: “I was just trying to throw a curveball in the dirt and I kind of pulled it a little bit, hit him in the foot. That kind of goes along the lines of me not commanding my pitches well today. I’m trying to bury that pitch and I just pull it a little bit and it hits him in the foot. That’s all it takes, just a little bit and you’re not going to have a good result.”
On the Quentin three-run blast of a homer: “It was just a fastball inside. I was going away a lot at first and they were driving it the other way. Even the lefties were reaching out there and pulling fastballs away. I wanted to go inside and I just left it over the plate and up a little bit. And he hit it really good.”
On bouncing back from this: “I never get too high or too low on these outings. Obviously I don’t want to go out there and do that every again. It’s not fun to go out there and pitch like that. But I still feel like there’s so many things that could have happened, all those end-of-the-bat numbers, all those bloopers, those kind of plays, I don’t feel like if I go out there in five days and we play the same team, I know I could do well and pitch well against them.”
BROOKS CONRAD
on the ball going in his shirt: “Just ridiculous. It hit me right here, you can see the red mark, and it went in between the second and third button. It was in there; I didn’t know where it was. I thought it might have gone in the neck, but it hit me in the chest, so I figured, uh-oh. I had no idea where it was. I was looking for it, and sure enough it was in the shirt.
“Just a crazy, crazy thing. Sure enough Quentin hits a homer after that. I felt bad, but really, it was just a freak play. It’s too bad they got [runs] after that. But what are you going to do? Probably never see it again.”
On coming back in ninth, or threatening to: “Like we talk about, that’s our character. We put some good at-bats together, got some runs on, and sure enough we’re back in it there. I don’t think we’re out of any game. We’ve proven it before, that we can come back. We were still having good at-bats and still trying, for sure.”
more on The Play: “They’ll probably play it on the blooper real and all that stuff. I haven’t seen it yet, so I’ll kind of look and see how it happened. It was a freak thing. I was unhappy about it because it was an out. Catch the ball and throw to first. I was completely baffled, more than anything.”

Well here’s my comment! “Bud, please for the love of God, Apple Pie, and Major League Baseball Fans all over this nation…remove the DH! And do it NOW!!! Looks like interleague is here to stay, so why do we have to continue to use 2 seperate rules!?! The games on average are much longer and takes out the pure strategy in the game we love. I understand why it was put in, but the time has come to remove it forever!”

The statistic of all those wins when the Braves score five runs or more……. Well it seemed kind of strange to say they scored two runs in the ninth to stop their five run plus winning record and lose?????? If they had not scored them their record would still be in tact but a loss anyway????
The main statistic of all times is …..You have to out score the other team. Not just score five runs and outscore them.
Some statistics are useless.. Good information but basically useless.

Be prepared for more of these types of results from the Big Redhead……
When Hanson doesn’t have his best command and control over his pitches, he’s a batting practice pitcher because there is no deception in his delivery. He shows the ball to the batter from start to finish by holding it high behind him and bringing it straight through without ever hiding it from the batter.
It’s a glitch in his delivery that someone should have addressed before now, but when you’re mowing down minor league batters no one is alarmed…….
…..but major league hitters are different. That’s why they make the big bucks.

I think the announcers for the Sox nailed it on the head last night. Tommy couldnt throw a breaking ball and became a one pitch pitcher. When he wasnt throwing that pitch where he wanted it was game over. I also thought he was throwing first pitch fastballs to every batter. They went up there hacking first pitch a lot. Should be a good pitching match up tonight.

What is the rational for bringing Saito after only one appearance at AAA while admitting that he is not 100%? Hamstrings are the WORST injury to not let heal completely.
What is the reason?
Fan since 1977
June 23rd, 2010
8:58 am
Saito is back because he owns the 8th inning and is more reliable than Kimbrel. Kimbrel has control problems and needs to pitch every day in Gwinnett to work on that. Chavez will go back down when JJ comes off the DL next week, he’s just a mop up man, anyway. Bobby couldn’t get Hanson earlier because our bullpen got worn out Sunday thanks to KK. That would have been 2 games in a row where the bullpen did all the work. Bobby is right, Hanson has had 2 bad games this year, the kid is fine, leave him alone. And good luck getting Wren’s bosses to take on Cliff Lee’s salary in place off JJ’s. Ain’t gonna happen.
This team is good when healthy. And they can beat Buerhle tonight. That guy is a great pitcher but his control has stunk this year. Check his stats. I’ll take Huddy over him any day right now. Hudson is dealing.
Fire TP. Make Chipper player/coach. Vote Republican. Go Braves.

Not to be a smart ellick, but Hansen said seems like they got a bloop here, a bloop there, and then a liner in the gap. Pretty much every hit I saw was a seed. He got rocked tonight, it happens. But I get a little tired of the Bobby speak and excuses when there’s a bad night.
I’m not saying he isn’t being accountable, b/c he was when he was saying he had bad location all night. But I don’t want to hear about ‘bloops’ when he gave up 9 runs and 13 hits.

I cant believe the people on this blog!!! Why do you even want to comment on here if all your going to be is negative. “The Braves are going to get no hit by Buerhle” “There streak is over with winning or splitting 13 series in a row.” What kind of s*** is that? Why would you say stuff like that when we have hudson going tonight and lowe going tomorrow.
I think yall must have missed the stat, the braves are scoring 5.5 runs per game since the start of may. Buerhle is 6-14 since throwing his perfect game last year. He is going against our best pitcher. Why in the hell wouldnt we win tonight?
Lowe has obviously found his new pitch he has been looking for because he has put together 5 damn good starts. So that puts an ingredents together for another series win.
Why would first place be gone from us? We have been there for awhile now and I think they know what to do to keep themselves there. The Mets arent going to play like this for the rest of the year. ITS ONLY JUNE. We know the phillies are going to make a run, I mean damn there only the best team in the n.l. the last two years. I mean look at there line up.
Look guys just because of one loss doesnt mean you have to get on here and start telling everyone on here how they suck and there goes first place. Come on give me a break, take that negative s*** and take it to a different blog.

No worries….were still 1 1/2 over the mutts. They DO NOT have the pitching to sustain them through the entire season. WE DO. The issue is when will the Phillies wake up…..they are the ones that will be able to last to the end. One bad game here and there against a hot team is not a problem. The Chi Sox are probably one of, if not the hottest team right now. We need to keep hitting and our pitching will get us through. GO BRAVES!!

I noticed Brian Snitker’s name hasn’t been mentioned as the next manager of the Braves. He has come thru the system as manager and coach. He is as qualified as Fredi. I felt like when he was promoted to third base coach he would definitely be considered. He is a good baseball man and a true Brave.

How is Snitker “as qualified as Fredi?” Gonzalez has been a MAJOR-LEAGUE manager for 3 1/2 years.

HANSON looks laconic tonight, almost sickly. His breaking stuff and change-ups out of control. His fastball is fat and over the middle of the plate. He finally broke 95 on it in the third, and began to get a bit of movement which resulted in the two pop-outs, but he’s definitely off his feed tonight. The SOX will continue to score until he’s out of the game……. unless he steps it up [which he didn't].

He didn’t have his curveball last night, that’s why McCANN called for the “hard stuff” all night, and all the SOX had to do was sit on it and wait with the strikezone McCLELLAN was calling.

I’m not worried about Hanson. We have enough pitching and hitting to win the division or at least the wildcard. But if we want to win the world series, we need to trade for Cliff Lee from Seattle. This would give us the best starting rotation in baseball when you add JJ, and it sets up and unbeatable rotation in the playoffs. I think Seattle will take Kawakami, McLouth, and one of our young pitchers in trade(Minor, Delgado, Teheran, or Vizcaino). Seattle gets a starting pitcher in KK who will benefit from a change in scenery, and will be a draw to the Asian population in Seattle. They also get a former allstar CF who will also benefit from a change of scenery. Finally they get a young pitcher who will be good and cost them very little over the next 5 years. We get rid of KK’s salary of 6.66 million in 2010 and 2011, and McLouth’s salary of 4.5million in 2010 ,6.5 million in 2011, and 10.65 million in 2012 or a 1.25 million buyout. Lee costs 9 million for 2010. The money for 2010 is a wash. We lose nothing from our team that we need + we add a #1 starting pitcher. We also improve our bullpen because we can move Medlin back to the Bullpen where he is very valuable in long or short relief. I like Melkyor Blanco in CF better than McClouth, and KK is headed for the bullpen anyway. We do give up a good young pitcher, but we wont resign Lee and he will be a class A freeagent, so we will pick up valuable draftpicks. We will also free up 13 million in payroll for 2011 that we can use to resign Glauss, Hinske, and Infante, which I think is absolutely critical for our team in 2011.

Have the White Sox scouts picked up something on Hanson? At times, it was like the White Sox batters knew what Tommy was going to throw before he threw it. The 3 run homer–the batter seemed to be expecting that pitch.

Braveshoo,
I’m sorry to disappoint you but if Seattle were to trade Cliff Lee, they aint going to be taking on salary in the process…let alone dead weight salary which is what Kawakami and McLouth are at this point. Lee represents a small salary component because he’s a pending free agent. So there’s no reason for them to accept any salaries in return for Lee, especially considering the likely biddding war with the NY teams or LA teams that will likely ensue. Seattle’s main issue is offense anyway, so Kawakami is not an attractive piece as a pitcher and neither is McLouth because he aint hitting either and is currently disabled (even if he hadn’t been struggling before the injury, the curious case of Ryan Church might give teams pause with showing interest in McLouth as Church has yet to return to his pre-concussion form since running into Yunel Escobar). The next time a team trades a blue chip piece (Lee) for a complementary player (McLouth) who is on the DL will be the first time that has ever happened.
That being said, the Braves would have pieces that are attractive to Seattle for Lee. But if you are the Braves would you give up those pieces for a rental player? I doubt it. I think Roy Oswalt might be a better target for the Braves. Oswalt is owed $27 million between now and the end of 2011. That makes trading him difficult for Houston. But if the Braves know Chipper Jones is retiring and leaving his $13 million for 2011 on the table, the Braves could be flexible enough to add that payroll. And given the high salary owed to Oswalt, Houston might be willing to pay some of that or take back some salary from the Braves (like Kawakami) to secure a couple of top level prospects (like Arodys Vizcaino and Jordan Schafer perhaps). If you are Frank Wren you have to consider this possibility. Oswalt would represent a huge advantage in a playoff series paired with Hudson, Hanson and Jurrjens. Plus with the salary potentially leaving the Braves in 2011 (Chipper’s $13m plus Wagner’s $7m and maybe Kawakami’s $7m) they have room for the salary of Oswalt and the pay raise they could offer Glaus.
Hey send Bobby out with a bang and the ammunition to get it done. Oswalt would be way better than Cliff Lee anyway. He fits into the clubhouse with buddies Chipper and Wagner.

Fire Frank Wren,
Why is activating Saito and sending Kimbrel to Gwinnet a bad move?
Saito’s line: 2.92 ERA with 34 strikeouts in 24 innings
The guy gets people out and has the track record that Kimbrel does not. Kimbrel has tons of talent but needs more innings. That lack of experience shows (loading the bases) and he’s not going to get relevant innings. And because they believe in his talent they want him to get more innings. Gwinnett offers Kimbrel what he needs at this point.

richbrave; what i meant by jordan schafer was that he was playing hurt last year, he was hurting the team and himself by playing. i certainly was not saying call him up! i just hope that if jason needs to sit he should sit and get well, if . i played ball in college and the last three weeks of my freshman year i played with two jammed wrist and i watched avg. drop 30 points. but if he is not hurt he needs to make some adjustments because the strikeouts are mounting.

Chopper, it was a dumb move because Saito hasn’t healed up yet. If he tears that hammy all the way up (which is likely considering how often Bobby was using him before he pulled it in the first place) he’ll be out the rest of the season and he’s too important a player to do that. It was the kind of move a manager makes in last minute desperation, not the kind one makes when in first place in June. It’s inexplicable, as far as I can tell.
Y’all, nobody is gonna take KK without part of his salary being paid in addition to a prospect or two, and that isn’t worth doing. Nobody in their right mind would take Nate without nearly ALL his salary being paid, as he’s essentially a pinch runner.

I’m almost relieved, now that this one is behind us we can move forward. I really like the attitude of this team. GO BRAVES!!
