    Shortstop is a position you should care more about defense, esp. when you have the best in the game there. Plus it isn't a given Albies will stick at short, some see him as more likely at second in the Majors.

    Awful teams search for ways to lose. Braves are very good at doing this.

    No reason to call the best defensive player in the world off there.

    Also, it's hilarious that our best start, well of all starters, was Wisler.

    Gotta win tomorrow. Absolutely NO momentum going into the break,

    Wow, Joe stopping just short of laying into Maybin there. What a poor choice by Cameron. Damn. Tough past half hour for the Braves.

    And I'm not trading Simmons now. It would be in a couple of years until we know more about Albies. I think Hart considers all options and it's a creative way to get a power hitter

    Thanks bud, you freaking waste of sh*t.

    It would be a positive releasing you and we pay your sorry ass to leave the team. We don't need your non hustle, your freaking bad attitude. Hell AJ has more positive than you, at least he hustles.

    Seriously I can't stand his sorry ass.

    We're done. Best we can hope for is Johnson can close some games making him more attractive as a trade piece

    Maybin apparently called that ball too early, it would've been a tough play for Simmons but you don't call him off if you are not sure.

    What a horrible ninth inning. Bloop hit loses it and it looks as though the Braves have lost their closer for a significant amount of time.

    No kidding, when it rains it pours. Hope Grilli is okay but either way his injury probably cost us a nice return in a trade.

    Can someone pay me to fly to Atlanta and beat the sh*t of Chris Johnson because I will? If you are a marginal player and hustle, play hard, treat your coaches with respect, I won't complain, but this piece of excrement I step on, be it cow, horse, pig, goat or sheep sh*t, when I visit the barns is the anti of what I've said.

    I can see why no team want him. We saw it tonight.

    The bright side is we get to pump up Johnson's trade value by using him in save situations.

    I assume the worst case on Grilli is torn achilles. It took Ryan Howard about 9 months to recover from that injury.
