All, have a good one! Hope J.J. pitches well. We will see how good he does against the Red Sox. Braves do need to make some kind of move though. Hope Wren can make some kind of deal for a pitcher ,or bat? Just want some thing done. Shouldn’t let another year go by. Should try , and close the deal. Peace my friends…….”Go!!!!!Braves!!!!!” Talk tomorrow ,or after game………

MISSISSIPPI

Bandits trade broadsides over in BIRMINGHAM with the BARONS, and sink their ship 10-7 in a real slug-fest. 26 safeties tallied, 15 by the BRAVES.

Lead-off RF KEENAN WILEY [.289 BA] 2-5, 1 R, 1 SO.

2B PHIL GOSSELIN [.259 BA] 1-4, 1 R, 1 2B [15], 1 RBI [24], 1 BB.

1B JOE TERDOSLAVICH [.333 BA] 2-5, 1 R, 2 RBI [15], 1 SO.

LF TIM SMITH [.308 BA] 1-4, 1 R, 1 SO.

CF TODD CUNNINGHAM [.323 BA] 1-5, 2 R, 1 3B [3], 3 RBI [22], 1 SO.

3B JOE LEONARD [.271 BA] 2-2, 1 R, 1 RBI [31].

C CHRISTIAN BETHANCOURT [.260 BA] 2-5, 1 R.

DH IAN GAC [.245 BA] 2-4, 1 R, 2 2B [20], 1 RBI [31], 1 BB.

SS JASON CHRISTIAN [.500 BA] 2-4, 1 R, 1 SO. Just brought in from BAKERSFIELD. With the departure of SIMMONS, the Bandits were filling in at SS, and needed more pop than they were getting from players in house.

LHS/RP LUIS AVILAN [W 2-5, 3.15 ERA] 6.0 IP, 5 H, 1 HR, 2 R/ER, 1 BB, 5 SO. One well-pitched game does not a career-make. Too many gopher-balls! MASTER YODA.

RHRP BRETT CAMMONS [10.45 ERA] 1.0 IP, 1 H, 1 R/ER, 1 BB, 0 SO. BRETT’s year-long comeback from TJ has not gone well. He’s struggling to stay in AA.

RHRP ANDY WILSON [15.43 ERA] 0.1 IP, 4 H, 4 R/ER, 0 BB, 0 SO. The man has blowed up!

RHRP ‘Aussie ANDY’ RUSSELL [2.43 ERA] 1.0 IP, pristine, 1 SO. The other ANDY sailing along this season.

LHRP CHRIS JONES [4.18 ERA] 0.2 IP, 1 H, zeros.

Diminuative 2012 19th round rookie 2B ROSS HEFFLEY [.400 BA] 2-5, 2 RBI [2], 2 SO, 1 SB [1], 1 CS [1]. DAN UGGLA lite.

Uh, he got injured maybe? Not adjusting to knee brace? Bothered by the orthopedics? Any number of things could be the cause, all probably messing with his mechanics (and probably is in his head a bit).

I think J.J. for Garza is good deal with a player to be named later. It’s not going to take that much.

Wow, really? Theo and Jed Hoyer are trying to rebuild the team, not just dump salary. It’s not the Uggla trade redone. It’s gonna cost some prospects. They’re trying to get some impact prospects to rebuild the team. Unfortunately, I don’t think we match up well for Garza/Dempster/Greinke. All of those guys will require top prospects in return, which we don’t have to give up. We’re not a deep team on the farm.

We’ve got Delgado, Minor, Teheran, Gilmartin, Medlen as our big 5 pitchers. Delgado and Teheran are untouchables, Medlen is in the pen and likely untouchable, leaving Minor and Gilmartin. Both of those guys don’t project as high ceiling guys. Other than that, we have “crap” in our farm system. Sorry to burst this bubble, but I’m not thinking we get Garza/Dempster unless FW gives up one of his big pitching prospects (something he never does, and is this case shouldn’t do)

BTW, we aren’t getting Garza for JJ and a PTBNL…..

Who to watch at the Futures Game
Keith Law

Five guys most likely to do something awesome

Christian Bethancourt, C, Atlanta Braves (Double-A Mississippi): He has raw power, but I’m including him here because of his defense. He’s one of the best-throwing catchers in organized baseball, and I’d love to see him get a chance to try to throw out Billy Hamilton at second.

I get excited about Bethancourt whenever I read something like this. But then I remember that he just hasn’t hit at all yet. Of course, he is just 20 years old and in Double-A, which is extremely young for the level. However, you have to hit a little more than he has and not just show off your raw power in batting practice and that’s it.

Even Yadier Molina hit a little his first three years in the bigs, ages 21-23: .238/.291/.342(1,033 Plate Appearances) – I’m honestly not sure Bethancourt will be able to do that. Defensively, he sounds like he’s Molina behind the plate with his arm and blocking ability.

Nice to dream on a up-the-middle of Bethancourt, Simmons and Lipka – but man, that’s gonna put some added stress on the corners to produce with the bats. ;)

Music to my ears. What if Bethancourt develops along the lines of Charles Johnson? Super defensive catcher with a light bat? A-okay if the Braves can find the offense to compensate elsewhere in the lineup, I believe.

TheOnlyBravesFan, Bethancourt still may prove to have a good bat. Though Bethancourt hasn’t exactly sizzled offensively at Mississippi, there’s still a whole lot of season left there, so there’s time for Bethancourt to up his hitting.

And I presume that the Braves will exercise McCann’s option for ‘13 and that Bethancourt catches at Gwinnett next season, giving him yet more time to develop and management the time to better evaluate Bethancourt’s major league bona fides.

Depends what the other positions are generating offensively. The Braves can carry a strong defensive, lighter-hitting catcher, if they’re getting the offense elsewhere.

Law’s describing one heckuva of a defensive standout in Bethancourt. If he and others are correct, I think Braves’ management would be foolish not to see how they can play Bethancourt and compensate for his bat from others.

RHRP ‘Iggy’ GERONIMO [7.71 ERA] 1.1 IP, 3 H, 1HR, 3 R/ER, 1 BB, 1 SO. manages to top PEREZ’ miserable performance. Icing on the cake.

So, while it is great to hear good reports about Bethancourt, when is the last time a catcher was selected to the All-star team because of his defensive prowess? Other than Ozzie Smith, I cannot think of any player selected purely for their defense.

Hopefully Bethancourt will be ready by the time McCann walks. While the Braves will try to offer Brian what they consider a reasonable package, Atlanta simply cannot compete with teams like the Yankees or Boston.

That said, I still get ill every time I think about the amount of talent the Braves traded away to get Texiera. Talent that has helped the Rangers to the World Series appearances.

I keep hearing (reading) about how bad the fans in Atlanta are, I think it is a bit unfair. Take an area devastated by the recession and consider that wages are somewhat diminished in the area to begin with, add a stadium that is too large, located in a slum with poor access and I think you get what you have got.

Folks in Atlanta are tired of losing, period. No need to make yourself feel even more depressed than you already are. It is why the Yankees have so many fans, they are perennial winners. Most Yankee fans don’t even understand the game.

Ease time to move on…

I agree. These people need some new material…

Besides, the Yankees have the great Russell Martin. What would they want a third string catcher like BMac for? :roll:

Sorry McFann, but it is the responsibility of bread winner to provide for his family to the best of his ability, that said, the only reason BMac might re-sign with the Braves would be at the behest of his wife. She may feel that strong family ties in Atlanta would out way a big payday to play in New York or on the west coast.

Now I’ve spent 10 minutes looking up everything there is to know about “Air Bud” on Wikipedia. So in the plot, the dog is abandoned by his owner and the kid’s dad dies? And this is supposed to be a Disney movie??

Not to mention, who abandons a dog that plays basketball! Seriously!?

McCann’s making more this year than I’ll make in 30 years of working. I don’t think they’re about to go on food stamps or anything
