The Braves know what success looks like. /Dumbass Moore/

I didn't see it (my wife and I just had our first child last night!) but Bale's throw sounds eerily similar to Jamey Wright's attempt to turn a double play in Anaheim when he launched the ball into center field...it was the series that basically started our meteoric fall to where we are now.

LMAO lamar?

Yep. ****ing javelin.

Congrats!

You should name the yuut John.

I was thinking Yuniesky?

Do you guys think Chris Young of the Diamondbacks could be had? He's having a horrible year this year, but has demonstrated the ability to be a 25/25 guy, and has all kinds of physical talent. I don't know, he kind of reminds me of a Jermaine Dye kind of player, who had high expectations and some results in his first place and then found his stride later. I'd love to see if he could be our centerfielder. But maybe this is just crazy. Just a thought.

He's been pretty bad, but he did recently have a 3 hr game...

he has talent but i haven't seen much...i'm sure DM will go for a 29 year old OF'er that can't get on base but has good defense

It's kind of like the Chiefs situation....trotting him out there can't be any worse than Mitch Maier...and he has more upside than David De Jesus, IMO.

Maier is lame, i still can't believe he has 11 OF assists, that said he shouldn't be on a MLB roster

When I look down at MLB teams that were good the last five years, it seems like whatever teams are tops in OBP are the best teams in baseball. Sooo....why don't we just go out - sign whoever gets on base the most and just fill them on our roster. Being we are a small market team, that seems like the best bang for your buck strategy anyway. I'm sick and tired of the Bentancourts and Olivos. They hack at everything in sight and miss. You can only do that if you are a great contact hitter like Callaspo. If Olivo wasn't mentally reeruned, he would be one of the best hitting catchers in the MLB but for the life of him doesn't understand what a strike and a ball is.

I mean, I don't understand why people give two shits about someone's batting average. It doesn't really make any difference. OPS and OBP only thing that should matter. We are second to last in OBP, and once again, we suck ass. Bring Kila Ka'aihue. This guy is my boy. He's batting .252 you say right? Well that motherfucker has 105 walks and an OBP of almost .400. The guy is like in the top 5-7 players in OBP in all of AAA and he has a BA of .250 - Money ball baby.

Robinson Tejeda had another very strong start tonight for the Royals, striking out 8 and walking 2 while giving up only 3 hits in 6 innings. It would be a nice September find to have Tejeda become a solid starter for the team going into 2010. BTW, he outdueled the great Justin Verlander tonight. Hopefully they can get him a win this time.

Shitty.

Billy Butler had his 4th three-double game of the season today. You know who else has done that? ****ing nobody else since 1956-- when rotosheet has been keeping track of things.

Wow.

That's enough.

Wow.
