I'll too be very surprised if the deal gets done. However, the closer it gets to ST, the more leverage other clubs have if Towers insists on unloading Upton. Right now, it's a chess match between...

Alfonso Soriano is who I want. Sure, he Ks a lot, but his OPS would be a nice addition in the lineup. With him, or someone like him, we could keep our bench intact for late in the game.



Yes,...

Milwaukee and Colorado's late and close games weren't mostly 2-1 type games, but usually 8-7, etc. That being said, ever since we became competitive in the 90's, the team was built around pitching...

I am all for the platoon, if the bench is solid. At this point however, opposing setup men and closers aren't going to be sweating bullets over facing Laird, Pastornicky, Janish, Schafer, and/or...

With the way the Braves play (defense and pitching wins championships), we see lots of 2-1 and 3-2 type of games. Late in the game, a pitching change will be made to make the Braves use the other...

The projections for Simmons and Uggla seem a bit inflated, but I think you're close on the others. Although, I think Freeman may push a .315+ average. Minor's ERA is a bit low, simply b/c of his...

Platoons work just fine until you get in the playoffs, where it's literally a chess match each game. What we NEED is a true LF, but that isn't going to happen. That being said, let's hope someone...

He's had three hitting coaches in three years, so when he has a little consistency in that department, his numbers should rise. At 22, he has a lot of time to grow, so with that being said, I give...

Chipper will be DTD pretty much all season and let's face it, this team isn't making a playoff run with Juan Francisco playing in his place. If Prado takes his spot at 3B, then no one in LF is gonna...

I personally don't think it'll happen, but I'm rooting for him. I always liked Chuck. The dude has a good work ethic.

I don't love the signing, but I understand it. Plus, where do you see that it was for $1 mill? Before '06, he had some decent years in Baltimore. I understand that was 5+ years ago, but the dude...

Brett Boone doesn't belong on this list. Neither does Prado. If you simply look at one season, then we can add a whole lot of folks to this list who don't belong. Matthews didn't play the OF, so...

If you missed the original offer before it expired, they are now offering it again...

HERE YOU GO

Good news indeed. Even after giving his homeboy, Harrow, a scholly, I'm still not 100% convinced he ends up in Athens. From what I've heard though, Drew has been the biggest recruiter for this...

I'd like to give Milledge a shot. With the right manager and club, he might be able to turn some heads. In an average 162-game season, he hits 12 HRs and swipes 15 bags along with a .269 average. ...

They can't take McLouth "back" since he never played for them. But, I like your proposal. I do, however, think that their ears might burn a little to get two expiring contracts in McLouth and...

MASH HERE

You're welcome! :moon:

First of all, Bradley has talent, but has proven to be a huge clubhouse cancer - something I personally don't want the younger guys (Heyward, Freeman, etc.) exposed to. Second, I love the Braves and...

With Bobby and his "old school" ways gone, what are the chances Fredi will tinker with the pitcher batting 8th? With all of the discussion about who should be bat leadoff, the following batting...

Good post. Besides his strong arm, there isn't one aspect of Escobar's game that I've missed. Good riddance IMO.

Gonzo has made his fair share of errors, so I'll give you that. However, we didn't trade Escobar because he was making careless errors and wasn't producing, even though he was. He was traded due to...

Just noticed the game time. I sure would like him in there today being that Lannan has a 3.44 ERA against us since 2006.

Will Derrek Lee be in the lineup today or is he waiting for the series opener in Chicago?

Glaus cannot play 3B anymore.

Hawpe (outside of Colorado) is comparable to Ryan Church. I think (and hope) we're done after getting Lee.
