Now on to some MILES DAVIS……later folks, this music requires some serious attention.

So, it appears as though the batting order some have been asking for will come to fruition when all of the regulars are in there:

Bourn
Prado
Mac
Uggs
Freddie
Chipper
J-Hey
A-Gon

Not a bad lineup, and if everyone else is hitting like they are capable, A-Gon’s offensive liabilities matter even less than they do now.

Enjoy the Miles, rich. I may have to throw “Kind of Blue” in the cd player myself.

Interesting not on the album Kind of Blue–For years it was the only album Duane (or Greg?) Allman would listen to. He said he learned something new about music with every listen, and he listened to it multiple times per day.

DOB – where was Hank Aaron yesterday for the lunch and field festivities for Bobby?

Hopefully now that McCann is back they’ll generate enough offense per game that our starters won’t need to feel perfect out there.

No pressure offense. :smile:

THANKS for the lineup, Chief!! So……just over half an hour till the game, eh…?

TnBrian you, me and I’m sure thousands of others will be a little on edge for a bit with Mac. Best player on the team. MVP type player.

Yes! I gotta tell ya, I’m more than a little nervous right now… :mrgreen:

There weren’t enough black people for Aaron to show up.

Kidding of course.

DOB Keeping two catchers for next couple of days makes sense, to cover themselves in case Mac has any setbacks during a game, or needs to come out of a long game initially, etc.

Yeah, that was a good idea…

McFann – I thought you’d be first in line up at Gwinnett to see BMac on the field. ;)

McFann, I still don’t see the rush with Mac. Offense isn’t slumping at all. He’ll definitely make things even better offensively, but I was hoping even more time could maybe help prevent him from aggravating that oblique again.

Who knows, all we can hope is everything goes well.

I would have been…but, Brother goes back to school (in Kansas) a week from today, and we had kinda already planned to go out to dinner last night, ’cause this week will be busier with getting his stuff ready and all…

But I was there in spirit!! :D

Logan Morrison gets sent to AAA despite having a .791 OPS. I guess LoMo should have listened to what the Marlins brass had to say about his Twitter usage.

Yeah, same here kinda…I tell ya, I wanted him back STAT, but if something happens within the next couple of days, I will be SO T’D OFF, I may have to withdraw from civilization for a while…

He’s says he’s ready, so……gotta, yeah, just hope he really is…not that he’d be lying, but just maybe jumping the gun a bit or something…

Glad to see Jason in the lineup today. Hopefully, his hard work with Chipper and Parrish will pay off.

It will be interesting to see if Constanza can make adjustment to MLB pitchers beginning to try to make him chase pitches that start in the zone, but cross the plate out of the zone.

Personally I wouldn’t change with what’s working. I’d go….

With Chipper:

1. Bourn CF
2. Prado LF
3. Freeman 1B
4. Uggla 2B
5. McCann C
6. Chipper 3B
7. Heyward RF/Gonzalez SS
8. Constanza RF/Gonzalez SS

Without Chipper:

1. Bourn CF
2. Prado 3B
3. Freeman 1B
4. Uggla 2B
5. McCann C
6. Heyward RF
7. Gonzalez SS
8. Constanza LF

If it is just the three of us for the in-game blog, who is gonna call Ballgame early and complain the entire game? Somebody is gonna have to step up!

Hey, Bat. Good to see ya. I shoulda realized that with JHey in the lineup the game could be called prior to the first pitch.

Braves need to give AGone some days off now that we are healthy.

Give Lugo some playing time in order to rest alex.

We can also rest Uggla once his streak comes to an end, playing Martin at 2B and Constanza in LF.

Freeman already had his off days this week.

DLing Hanson was the smartest move we could make, Im glad they did it.
