  1. I'm just going to assume throwing one down the pipe on 0-2 to Stanton was a mistake.
  2. I'm a Segura fan and think he has a great future, but he seems awful at base stealing. Even beyond his poor success rate and pickoffs, it seems like whenever he's safe, all it would've taken was a decent throw to get him.
  3. Couldn't care less about how many teams make the playoffs from a division.
  4. I was about halfway up the third base line - it was funny seeing Duke (I think it was Duke) walk to a spot about in line were we were and put his hands up like, "WTH? Am I going in or what?" Like I said earlier, I'm glad this was Atlanta and not somewhere like Philly. The natives were getting extremely restless. I don't mind the replays because hell, if you can review something you should do it. I just hate the whole process of the manager walking out, stalling, and then deciding to challenge. The reviews took a long time last night, but it's really because they were such extremely close plays, especially the first one.
  5. So, um, yeah...I was at the game last night. The first game my kids have ever gone to. That 7th inning was the worst inning I have ever experienced in person. It was absolutely excruciating. I almost started rooting for the Braves. It took so long that my wife and I decided to leave early, since she had work in the morning and our kids weren't used to staying up so late. We were lucky this was Atlanta; the crowd was getting really pissed off - in other cities, things might've gotten ugly. On the bright side, we got four Andrelton Simmons bobbleheads.
  6. I haven't had the chance to listen to him on the broadcast, but he's good on MLB Network.
  7. I think I'm going to torture myself and go to the game tomorrow. As a bonus, it will be my kids' first baseball game.
  8. When Overbay grounded out, Tom Glavine said, "He gets down the line pretty well for a pitcher."
  9. Considering some videos we've seen, I think he's pretty well liked. I don't think there's a chemistry problem.
  10. My thoughts exactly. His FB was 3-4 MPH less than normal. A 15 day DL stint followed by minor league rehab buys some more time. I want to keep Wang because he certainly has the stuff, but he's not even close to being ready to pitch in the majors. http://i.imgur.com/6EDhQhr.jpg
  11. I think Wang is a position player.
  12. It's death by a thousand cuts. Ground balls through the infield, walks, and the big passed ball/throwing error.
  13. Yup. The Braves sure showed the Brewers how it's done with that passed ball and throwing error. Just a master class in advancing runners and getting them home.
  14. I've always considered the Braves announcers to be fairly solid, but they are off to a bad start. During Gomez's AB: a) one of them talked about his bad week (suspension, back, food poisoning) and said that there was "speculation" that he decided to serve the suspension because he was having back problems, anyway. No, my friend, that's not speculation. b) When he took his usual hard swing on 3-0, the announcer said that it's that kind of swing that makes opposing players not like him. waaaaaaaaaaaaaaatttttttttt?
  15. Why not just play everyone anywhere? It's all just catching and throwing! If Jose Oquendo could do it, anyone can!
  16. No problem with it at all. He knows the pitcher doesn't want to walk him and there's a good chance he's coming right down the pipe on the first pitch. That's exactly what happened and Davis hit it hard. You don't look for a walk there. You look for a meaty pitch to hit.

  18. Better not score by more than that or the Cardinals will get upset.
  19. I don't know exactly, since I don't know how Braun feels. I do know that just because a guy is able to play doesn't mean he's 100%. The oblique may still be a little tender, a little vulnerable to overuse. Maybe he's ok to play, but it's just bothersome enough that the team has decided that it's better safe than sorry. Who knows? People need to stop being so angry about everything.
  20. Supposedly, no. So we're at the point in his career where he can only play 3 games in a row without a day off? More like the point in his season after coming off the DL.
