So Jake, you think he’ll move Nate back to center? I think that he goes with Schafer until he tanks. If he knows Schafer is going down, why play him there now rather than McLouth?

I’m not a believer in a manager making all that much difference -en compared to most other managers-, so I’ve never really been all that vocal about it and likely won’t change my approach to blaming him for our troubles, but I still think that he and Larry brought a difference emphasis to the club which is at least partly responsible for some of the offensive hiccups, but I admit that is speculation and not gospel

I think he’s giving Jordan every opportunity to succeed since he is the more prototypical leadoff hitter but his average and obp just are not pretty. It doesn’t become quite as glaring if others were stepping up offensively. With our struggles his numbers just don’t warrant him staying in the lineup over Nate. If they choose Nate over Jordan i don’t think they keep him as a backup because they want him to get the at bats so they send him down. That’s just my feeling on the situation and they may feel a completely different way but unless Jordan picks it up with the obp, Nate’s just looks so much more appealing.

don’t know Woody, he might be laying quiet cause he does not have the good will built up for decade that he had with Bobby. Either way I don’t want to overstate the amount of influence that I think Terry or Larry , or any other coach, usually has. Their influence begins and ends with the mind set of each individual player.

I just never could get all that involved in Lost. Not that it wasn’t well done, but I am not all that fond of strictly serialized shows.
I like a good bit of background with the cast, but I like some episodic approach in each one too. I think Fringe maintains a decent balance.
Perhaps in part because of my age. Growing up when I did, every show was just about totally episodic.

We were dangerous last year because of our unpredictability. We won any number of ways. This year, mostly we shut folks down with pitching. Occasionally, we erupt with some offense. Our defense is pretty steady, compared with last year. There’s little drama this year, to be sure, but I sure do like our chances with this staff. Health, like last year, is a question mark.

This was one of the games you’re destined to lose. Odds are we would have won if Venters did not instinctively reach out and deflect the grounder. AGon would have had the out easily at first. I think some of the negative sh!ts thought it was an error on AGon because he bobbled the ball but he had no play after Venters deflected it.

speaking of bonehead play late in the game…
did anyone see how the M’s Marlins game ended? Wow. Seattle scored their go-ahead run in the top of the 10th on a wild pitch on an intentional walk!! The Marlins’ pitcher just sailed the 3-0 pitch way wide of the catcher, who was standing with his arm out waiting for the final ball on the intentional walk to set up a double play. Ackley broke late from third and probably would have been nailed, but the throw back to the catcher short hopped the pitcher and he couldn’t hold on to make the tag. Crazy way to lose a game…

Jonny Venters shouldn’t feel too bad…losing today was simply apropos….as “Yunel’s” has elluded, our offense really goes flat immediately after a surge of production and such is the patterned ‘way of life’ which this team unyieldingly follows. I am predicting a turn around in Seattle this next week. The Bravos will actually and incrementally score more on consecutive upcoming games; enjoy!!!

“Gone Viral—A 3.14 ERA in the Steroid era is a lot more impressive than a 3.07 ERA now.”
It absolutely is, but the reality is that the heavily hyped pitching staffs that comprised the 90s generally floated in the 3.4 range. This Braves staff had been under 3 for a long time prior to Saturday’s fiasco and today’s 8th inning fluke. In terms of top to bottom of the staff, this is THE best Braves pitching compilation I’ve ever seen. Everyone knew our situation during the Holy Trifecta era: get into the Braves bullpen and win the game. That’s the Phillies now. Our bullpen is if anything more devastating than our starters…and we’ve had JJ, Hanson and Beachy all on the DL this year (and Moylan taken out of the bullpen). The fact that we’re at 3.07 given all of these parameters blows me away.
A lof of us are (rightfully) so frustrated by our hitting that we’re not appreciating the mythic performance by our pitching staff in 2011 to date.

The amazing thing about what happened to Venters today is that when you re-watch the inning, there is only one clear hit in the batch. Walking the leadoff man was his fault; the rest of the inning was half a season worth of luck balancing itself out in half a dozen batters.
This will be one of those “and if we take out that one fluke 8th inning against San Diego” discussions as the season winds down and we marvel at what he has accomplished in 2011.

Keylargo, I’m on my 3rd time through of watchng LOST.
I didn’t watch season one when it was on, but my wife and mother did and swore I would like it. So before season two started crammed through the first season to catch up to speed and never turned back.
We have them all on DVD and when the series completed in 2010, I started over and thoroughly enjoyed it the 2nd time through. That is when the brilliance of the writing became evident. Once you know how it ends and then can go back and realize how well they pieced it together and how many clues there was along the way, it makes more sense than ever.
My sons both wanted to watch but we were waiting for them to be old enough to handle some of the maturity of the show. So once school let out this year, we started watching a disc or so every night and while it’s not as enjoyable as it was the first time through and certainly not as informative as it was the 2nd time through, I’m enjoying them enjoying it as we go along. We actually just finished season four about an hour ago.
What’s so amazing about the show is that they claim that when they wrote the pilot they also wrote most of the last episode as well. The very last scene is allegedly EXACTLY the way they envisioned it at conception. So like I said, to know that and then re-watch how they “got there” is amazing.
But the magic of that show to me was how each episode was such a great cliff-hanger that had you coming back for more. My boys can’t grasp the fact that when those seasons ended we had to wait about six months to see where it went. After season two (maybe season three), they started the seasons in January instead of September. So you had to wait from May until after Christmas to see where it was going. They simply have had to put in the next DVD. LOL.
It pretty much was the only show that I cleared out my schedule on Wednesday nights to make sure I watched it as to not see any “spoilers” online.
I can see how some people didn’t like where it went and I think nolie and I have had conversations about it in the past. I haven’t started Fringe yet, but plan on it.
Enjoy….. imo it gets better as each season goes along.

This team is what they are right now and will continue to be just that until Wren does something about.
What they “are”, is a team that has enough pitching to win most series they are in. But a pathetic enough offense to make the “odds” very even of them also losing a series here and there because of the weak lineup.
Still leading the wild card and likely will continue to do so.
But until Uggla and Heyward begin to rake, Prado comes back OR Wren makes a move, this is also a team that won’t catch the Phillies and even if we win the wild card will fall short of winning (or getting to) the world series.
It’s really that simple. No two ways about it.
We’re a very good team BECAUSE of the great pitching (Venters’ afternoon not withstanding), but probably not good enough in the end until the offense does their part.
So the question becomes (or really still is)…. at what point does Wren sacrifice future flexibility and depth of the pitching staff to improve the 2011 team’s chances of winning a championship?
I’m all for trading one of Delgado, Teheran or Vizcaino, OR one of Beachy, Minor or Medlen to improve our chances. But not more than one and certainly not one from each of those groups.
And if it is either Teheran or Beachy it BETTER be for a guy that has major impact not only for this year, but is locked up for many years to come.
I also wouldn’t be opposed to trading Hanson or JJJ this offseason if they honestly feel that one or more of the above mentioned six guys (Minor, Beachy, Medlen, Teheran, Delgado or Vizcaino) can step in and give a reasonable replacement value of those guys. Again, it depends on the bat (or bats) coming our way.
But clearly this team can’t survive 2011 without both Hanson or JJJ.
Or, does Wren simply let it ride in 2011 bucking on Uggla, Heyward and Prado being healthy and hot for the 2nd half and carrying us through? Trading fringe prospects for bench and depth to help in close games?
I tend to think that that is the way he’ll go. He’s worked too hard to build this pitching staff for the “now” and the future to give it all away.
But that is one of the things that JS did so well. He not only stockpiled pitching for the Braves to use on their own team, but he also stockpiled trade bait to use to get the pieces needed to improve our chances in the short term.
What Wren needs right now is the reverse deal of the JJJ trade with Detroit. He needs to catch lightning in a bottle for a 2nd time, by trading away a pitching piece to a team that is desperate enough to give up a very good (young) hitting talent that we can control at a reasonable salary for the next 4-5 years.
But in the end, Uggla being the Dan Uggla he (Wren) and us expected him to be in the 2nd half would turn this whole season around. But I’m beginning to doubt that that Dan Uggla will ever show up in 2011.

The big problem has been hitting LHP. That falls to a great extent on Uggla (who’s not gonna be replaced via trade) and the absence of Prado. So, I don’t see any huge trades in the works.
What seems like it would make sense would be a deal with Houston – not for Pence or Bourn, but for Bourgeois. He’s versatile (CF, LF, RF, 2B), showed good bat in the minors and in limited play this year – is old enough that the ’stros may not see him as a “prospect’ but little enough experience to be cheap, both in salary and trade requirements.
He’d probably platoon with McLouth (or Schafer), but might bolster the offense a little against LHP.
I have no idea if he’s available, but I’d be surprised if he was untouchable.

Here’s a question. When is the last time the Braves had a 100 rbi guy? A 30 HR guy? A 40+ steal player? It’s been a while. It’s been a while since the Braves had an elite offensive player, in my opinion. McCann is excellent, but even he usually tops out at around .285 25 85. Which is great for a catcher.

On McCann/Ross learning another position:
1. OK fine, let McCann remain as a mediocre defensive catcher who happens to be an awesome hitter. Check back with me when he’s 31 and done.
2. Does it bother anyone else that apparently, David Ross and Eric Hinske have no desire to play every day? They enjoy being backups, batting 5 times a week, starting maybe a game a week? They’re great guys I’m sure, and their contributions are unquestioned. I just always assumed every guy on the bench wishes they were in the starting lineup.

Scoots,agree with you on living with Prado,Heyward,and Uggla. No reason to not believe in these guys,they have a track record that says they will be better the second half. My only wish for the Braves to improve right now would be to strengthen CF and try to get one more strong arm in the bullpen to lighten the load on our 3 studs. I still believe Bourn would be a good upgrade in center if the cost is not outrageous.

Both Schafer and McLouth are okay against right-hand pitching. We need a RH bat who can platoon with one of them when Prado comes back.
I suggested Bourgious earlier; who else could we get on the cheap, RH bat, can play CF, to platoon when a lefty is on the mound?
Schafer against LHP: .118/.167/.176 (i.e., he should NEVER leadoff, probably never play, against LHP)
McLouth against LHP: .182/.286/.236 (not much better)

Schafer did spark the team and bring the speed element to the ballclub, but he cant hit LHP what so ever and is very inconsistant with the bat. I really rooted for the kid, but when Prado comes back I think his time is up. Maybe batting him in the 8th spot could do him good, but At this point its hard to say but Nate is really a upgrade with the bat… Wren and Fredi have to decide if they should make a move. Also have to decide if Schafer needs ABs in AAA or to keep him up and be a part time player. Schafer could eventually just be a bench guy, with his speed and defense he could be valuable down the line once he figures out his role if he can stick in the bigs.

For a guy that sucks as bad as you guys like to point out….. he was the only guy yesterday to drive in a run, not to mention have half of the total hits for the team during the game.

Ok, Just watched the replay on last nights 8th inning, and the pitch that Hudson hit to drive in 2 runs was pretty flat, didnt have much break on it at all. Not like Venters sinker usually does. Hope hes not getting tired from the overuse.

Bat, well I don’t have enough fingers to point to all of the issues we have on the offensive side of the game.

Shafer is not a MLB player.
See Martin come.
See Jordan go.

But Schaefer had half of our hits yestreday keylargo! If it wasn’t for him it would’ve almost been a no hitter. Shcafer is our no hitter breaker upper.

We need Hank Aaron as our pitching coach is all.

I’d much rather have Schafer stay where he’s at when Prado come back than to go through another round of Mclouth. That ship has done sailed, have you guys completely forgotten about what he’s brought the last couple of years? Oh how we forget.

Afan, more production and a platoon in CF are not mutually exclusive you do realize? Platoons have worked in the past.

About our catching corp. when it comes to defense….
They have given up 63 stolen bases, caught 19 which equates out to a 23 percent success rate.
O yea, we have stolen 23 as a team and been caught stealing 22 times.
YIKES is all I have to say about this subject.

getting tired of 2 runs or 3 runs and 2 hits or 4 hits. Our lineup is full of .240 hitters. I would venture to say that when production is this bad nobody’s position is safe unless your maybe mccann or chipper…
