they did go with a young guy. he failed.

Re: 2007 Atlanta Braves Thread: Reclaiming the NL East
 

Personally I'm still depressed about losing the series to the gnats. It was just awful in so many ways.

A win tonight would really help though. Game 1 I expected us to lose anyway.

[/ QUOTE ] Yeah, this one is sort of the opposite situation though, so I've got high hopes for tonight.

Meanwhile, Andruw is scratched.

Re: 2007 Atlanta Braves Thread: Reclaiming the NL East
 

Andruw was slated to bat 6th too. Wonder if it had anything to do with that. They did say sore back, but I dunno.

Re: 2007 Atlanta Braves Thread: Reclaiming the NL East
 

God Smoltz is sick. Glad to see Jeff Francoeur is still kicking ass.

Anyway... not sure how good of a chance the Braves have at the division, but the wild card seems like a good possibility. Go Braves.

You dont pass or fail in 3 games during the season. If you knew Bobby Cox's managerial style you would know that. Baseball is a marathon, not a sprint. 3 starts isnt enough to determine much.

Re: 2007 Atlanta Braves Thread: Reclaiming the NL East
 

Tonight was just another example why Smoltz will be a first ballot HoF'er.

Re: 2007 Atlanta Braves Thread: Reclaiming the NL East
 

Lerew's elbow was shot the whole time. He's off to the DL.

He came out with an elbow injury. Go back to your team, thanks.

Re: 2007 Atlanta Braves Thread: Reclaiming the NL East
 

lol dude why the hell are you so defensive? i was directly addressing the comment

[ QUOTE ]
Hopefully this is the last straw. Cox looked kinda pissed when he came out of the dugout to take Redman out.

The Braves need to either trade for another starter or just go with a young guy.


[/ QUOTE ]

Simply reminding the guy that they were going with the young guy, he failed(whether due to injury or not) and they brought Redman in. It doesn't matter what 'the last straw is,' Cox had no choice to use Redman here. That's all I was saying, you silly Braves fans! As far as "go back to my own team," well, lol, I'll let you sit on that one for a while.

He should have been released a month ago. Now kindly [censored] off.

My God Andruw looks ugly tonight.

Re: 2007 Atlanta Braves Thread: Reclaiming the NL East
 

I'm so sick of Andruw.

At least he has finally been moved down..

Re: 2007 Atlanta Braves Thread: Reclaiming the NL East
 

Salty with one hell of an AB there. Hope it doesn't take too long to get that glove ready at first. Thor can handle LF..

Re: 2007 Atlanta Braves Thread: Reclaiming the NL East
 

Salty's AB was amazing. Wow.

Re: 2007 Atlanta Braves Thread: Reclaiming the NL East

Re: 2007 Atlanta Braves Thread: Reclaiming the NL East
 

I think we can all agree it was the right move. They brought up Devine but he's probably just a temp. Hopefully one of the other guys in the farm can step up.

Re: 2007 Atlanta Braves Thread: Reclaiming the NL East
 

Kyle Davies crushed that HR to center. He's the Mets killer.

Re: 2007 Atlanta Braves Thread: Reclaiming the NL East
 

6th K Davies homered to center, A Jones and W Harris scored.

wtf? no way.

Re: 2007 Atlanta Braves Thread: Reclaiming the NL East
 

It was a pure bomb. I mean he murdered the ball. Davies was actually on top of a lot of the pitches he swung at tonight.

Re: 2007 Atlanta Braves Thread: Reclaiming the NL East
 

I just picked up Scott Thorman.

I have nothing else to say really except that I am rooting for him.

Re: 2007 Atlanta Braves Thread: Reclaiming the NL East
 

200 for Smoltzy and 2 of 3 from the Mets!

And if I see Kelly Johnson make another error in a crucial spot he's getting an anthrax letter.

Re: 2007 Atlanta Braves Thread: Reclaiming the NL East
 

6 of 9 from the Mets this year.

We've had a tough schedule. Boston or the Yankees...hmmm..who would I rather play. The Braves have had injuries and the Braves will still keep beating the Mets all year long. There are still 9 more games right.

Gonzalez needs Tommy John's surgery. Damn.

Re: 2007 Atlanta Braves Thread: Reclaiming the NL East
 

Okay, the strike zone has been absolutely absurd tonight.

Re: 2007 Atlanta Braves Thread: Reclaiming the NL East
 

Wow, we're really struggling now. We really need to get Chipper back and get healthy. The good news is we're playing awful and still right in the thick of things.
