personally i think he is better than what they will end up getting if anybody at all

Why not one of our own, like Durango or someone?

I like giving Durango a shot too and Sutton maybe til Wilson and Chipper are back regularly. I also like Parraz so far too

I’m starting to believe over exercising and all this hardcore stretching they do causes so many crazy injuries anyways. Some more than others it appears. Damn, warm up and play. Eat great, but don’t go nuts with the fitness stuff.

Murph – I can sympathize with your fire ant bites. That happened to me last summer with a plant I had out in the yard for a month or so. Picked up that sucker and was walking to the hole I dug when I realized I had those bad boys all over my hand and arm. Itch like crazy, forms a lovely pustule that turns into a red crater when it pops, and takes weeks to heal…….then scars. Lovely creatures.

Played about 3,000 of games of basketball – let me count how often I stretched – done…

I agree about Parraz. It’s only ST, but the guy seems to be able to hit. Considering the rest of the Braves’ bench, that would be a BIG plus.

Tom – well, I figured it was well after supper for most folks, too early for the midnight snack group….

Never a problem for me, Choppinmama. If you saw my pantry, you’d know that pustules were just kids play.

Now that’s an interesting string of word you don’t see together too often – “you’d know that pustules were just kids play.”

And on that note, I’m taking my healed-up pustules to bed. Nite all.

I should be going, myself. Have to make something to eat and then spray for fire ants.

‘Nite, cabravesfan and all.

cab – I’ll just be glad when there’s a lot more real baseball to talk about………..in about 17 days, isn’t it?

Our 2012 rally cry will be………Let’s do it for the Chipper!!!!!!!!!

Tom – just goes to show you you don’t know nuthin about fire ants. You sprinkle, not spray.

Now, good night sir. Enjoy your late evening repast.

Billy what’s up? If I had to chose for the fith guy? It would be Medlen,and I would send Teheran,and Delgado down.

Ward

March 27th, 2012

I would go with Jairo Ascencio,and Yohan Flande,instead of Teheran,and Delgado.

Ward

March 27th, 2012

Put Medlen,in the 5th spot,and get both Jairo,and Yohan in the pen some how.

Ward

Most definately Parraz would be a big bat on the bench.He looks like a hitter.

Ward

Chipper will be fine when he comes back,and bet he will be in the best shape of career. Just enough shape for a good solid season,and will go out in style. All have a good one,and talk tomorrow.Peace my friends………..”Go!!!!!Braves!!!!!”

Back for a few. I would pick up Johnny Damon,before Byrd,and think Johnny Damon a better fit.Just my opinion though.Peace Out!

Morning Braves fans.
Game with the Mets today.
ML starters because we face them for real next week.

I remember the days when it seemed like we played the Expos every other day. We shared the complex down at West Palm Beach.

Might throw Eddie Matthews in strong consideration for #2 behind the Hammer. Of course, without the Hammer Eddie Matthews would be better known and would probably stand out a bit more. A quiet 500+ homers…
