“remember”
No. No, I don’t. My memory is like a Ryan Langerhans OBP: it ain’t much.
How incredulous is it that McCann’s option is an issue? Still a must-accept, for me, but I can’t deem the opposition idiots at this point. Makes me sad.
I think it’s clear 16 is playing through some serious issues. I hope the Braves, right or worng, pick up my guy, and he makes another all-star sqaud. I want another Chipper: another 20-year Brave.

First: love me some jjs. For certain.
But, I think it’s time my favorite faction admit they were wrong. ‘OB is who he is. To start, he’s too busy to know who’s who, like the rest of us can. Mostly, he’s an overworked, sarcastic, never-give-in MFer (the reasons I like him). Bob, and mostly those in his defense, took it too personal.
All these years later, it’s clear ‘OB wasn’t personal. He’s just reacting to us idiots. It’s clear, with this whole George/ACE thing, that he focuses on the negative.
Those dozen or so posters made this place. Every bit as much as ‘OB (without diminishing his leadership). I think it’s time those folks realized it ain’t about them, and it ain’t about ‘OB, or about Bob.
It’s about me. Or, at minimum, the readers I represent. This is your home. It always was, and always will be. Come home.

BAS, well, I get irrationally upset whenever any homegrown leaves, so it would be really hard to see McCann in another uni. But it is kinda scary when catchers start to go bad, especially ones who weren’t that athletic in the first place. But the average catcher OPS this year is .717. His is .696. So, even at his worst, he’s still average or so for his position. And combined, Braves catchers have the 11th highest OPS in the majors for the position. So, I dunno. Wouldn’t commit long term, but we have other holes to fill after the season, so I wouldn’t really needlessly create another.

“you, yorself trounced me.”
Well then, obviously I was right. Goes without saying. Still not sure what side I’m on, but without doubt, I’m right.
If we’re on McCann: I think any reasonable person would allow that injury is significantly affecting his performance. Where we differ: I don’t believe it’s his weight or catcher-wear-and-tear affecting him right now. I think, with rest, he’ll be one of teh better 2s in the league. Best? Probably not. Darn-near? I think so.
Is $13 million too much. Yeah. But, it’s one year. I think any logic-minded (and I could be way wrong; logic isn’t my thing. I drink.) person says we overpay one year to see what he’s got left. If he plays like we know he can: face of the franchise, Chipper discount, all that. If he .230s it again. Thank you. You were my favorite player, but I have to go buy a Heyward jersey. Come again.
Seems simple to me. (Most things do when you drink).

But playing everyday when you suck kinda compounds the damage, doesn’t it? Just kinda keeps digging that hole deeper. Since McCann doesn’t play everyday, the damage caused by his poor performance is only 75% of the damage of the guy who sucks everyday. $13 mil is steep for a dude who looks like he is sinking into the abyss, but mccann vs. uggla is the homegrown versus the hired gun. the homegrown usually wins that battle. plus, mccann is just another year worth of grief if it doesn’t work out — after years of memories of him being an All Star for the team. uggla scares the hell out of ya because he might suck the entire time he played for you.

Dan Haren is less-than-thrilled about a report earlier this week that indicated the Angels are leaning towards turning down options for him and Ervin Santana this offseason, writes Ramona Shelburne of ESPNLosAngeles.com. Haren says that he and his fellow pitcher are dialed in on the season at hand and are not giving any thought to their respective contract situations.

Dunno if anyone heard this, but apparently yesterday on MLB Network Radio, Fredi said that as of now he’s taking 10 pitchers to the WC game. 3 starters, 7 relievers. He must’ve gotten my note! As of now, it likely would be Medlen, Hudson, and 1 of Minor/Maholm
While not agreed upon, they are considering bringing 3 catchers.

Dodgers manager Don Mattingly has indicated that Andre Ethier might be a platoon player next season.
“I can say all day long that I think he’s capable of hitting against lefties, but if the numbers keep telling us that maybe he can’t, then we have to go a different route,” Mattingly said. It was telling when Ethier, who is batting just .215/.270/.321 this season against southpaws, didn’t start Wednesday against Padres lefty Clayton Richard. The Dodgers in June gave the 30-year-old a five-year, $85 million extension, which is a lot to pay a potential platoon player.
Yup. He isn’t a good fielder or baserunner either. Not a smart contract extension.

Heyward looked awful last night and the night before. Lots of guys on base for him and he can’t seem to drive them in. Might be time to bat Prado 4th, at least he puts the ball in play.

PMC, worrying about his salary is also silly. Virtually every team has one or two or five overpaid players. Those who want to whine about the 13 mil don’t ever spend time gushing over the 490 thou paid to Medlen. When it’s over, the Braves will have paid about one mil per victory, which beats the hell out of some other teams I could mention.

It’s not that RBI are meaningless. It’s that they are a lot like pitcher wins and things of that sort. They depend a lot on opportunity and they aren’t so much a measure of skill as opportunity. Pretty simple, really, if you think it through for about two seconds.

I wonder where we ever got the notion that RBI are meaningless?

“and they aren’t so much a measure of skill as opportunity.”
Disagree. Driving in runs is a skill. Especially on this team where guys LOVE to strike out with RISP rather than put the dang ball in play. BRIAN McCANN and DAN UGGLA. But yes occasionally they do luck into some RBIs.

Shaun – We ALL have a thorough and comprehensive understanding of your “fact” concerning RsBI, both individual and team. You obviously don’t recognize whern someone is poking fun with (or at)you. The rest of us get it.

Uggla’s 3rd on the team in RBIs with 77, 2 behind JHey. Would it be nice if he had more? Of course. But even with his .217 avg, he’s driven in 77. That’s still a respectable number.
You get runners on with Dan at the plate, he does a decent job of getting them in. He’s hitting .258/.410/.477/.886 with 59 RBIs (and 33 BBs vs 42 Ks).
He has 33 Hits in that situation, Freeman has 34, and the team leader Bourn has 36.

I rest my case.

Shaun – I believe individual RBI are a COMBINATION of both skill and opportunity. One COULD debate which component is more important…but it is clearly not as black and white as you believe…as with most stuff you yammer on about.

Shaun – You don’t have a case to rest. Never did.
