Yeah…well…BMac’s been robbed of plenty of…uh, heh heh heh, Doubles this year!

Broxton has been horrible since the all-star break. We thought Wagner was bad. Having said that, Broxton will probably shut us down.

Dumbfound: if some idiot waltzes onto a blog and starts writing absolutely idiotic things – that is NOT the signal to start writing idiotic things back.
That puts you on the same level as the idiot – which brings me back to my original question to you about “how do you think the others here view you.”
You don’t WANT to be viewed as an idiot – but if you walk like a duck, quack like a duck, etc….

McFann: when the Twins face the Braves in the WS and Brian strokes the game winning shot over Span’s head, FOX will do the juxtaposition shot – a gleeful McCann getting mobbed at homeplate, and a despondent Mauer, eyes glazed over in the visiting dugout, ponders his failed efforts…
A perfect ending to Bobby’s tenure, as well as sweet revenge for 1991. Of course, it never could’ve happened… unless McCann rifles that double in the All Star game.

Damn that Ruiz! I have to say he’s one clutch hitter. I guess their manager being a hitting coach definitely helps that offense in Philly. You have two hitting coaches watching you, so chances are you’ll get straightend out quicker.

Tomahawkin – their lineup really isn’t that great other than Ethier. Kemp is good but he has underperformed as of late. Keeping Pods off the bases will be critical as well. If we had our A lineup, we would have a legit chance to take at least 3 out of 4 but since we are without Chipper and Prado, we will be lucky to split.

Well, it was a bad day all around for us fans. Couldn’t have gone any worse,really.
I still love this Braves team. I think not having Chipper in the lineup anymore might spark even more fire up their butts. Might even see them go out and get another hitter in the next few weeks or sooner. Who knows.

Trey – a rotation of Hudson, Hanson, JJ, Medlen, and Minor is even better. If he is healthy and will be ready for next season, Id take Meds over Lowe. I don’t think the Braves are gonna have as hard a time this off-season unloading Lowe. 2 years/$30M doesn’t sound as bad especially if the Braves eat $5M or so.

So Chipper is “dedicated to rehabbing” but we all assumed he was not into getting ready for the season like players should back when the whole Brian Jordan thing went down? Hmmmm. Look, I appreciate what Jones has done here but this is a blessing in disguise. I love Infante at third and in the number two spot of lineup with Heyward three and Prado leading off when he returns. Im thinking the third spot for J-Hey will make him rise to the occasion.
Our players are not what concerns me this time of the year. Its you know who if we go by history and the Cox led teams of the past. End of summer is scary for Braves fans. Hope I’m wrong this time because after 2010 there is no next time for Bobby.

I was really hoping Ankiel would be better for us. He does draw some walks and he’s good in CF but it seems he can’t hit for sh** and he has problems getting picked off. Him, Glaus, and Hinske are gonna have to step up with Chipper out. Infante, Prado, Heyward, and Mac are money 1-4.
