The big question is, who is going to DH for us tomorrow?

Forever Fredi
Who the hell is Adonis Garcia?

I think Wisler is going to be very good...should have no runs given up today.
If you're not going to bother with reading any of our minor league stuff, don't waste our time asking questions like this.
He was a longtime Yankees farmhand who tore up the IL the first half of the season, was called up for one at-bat last month and returned to Gwinnett. As to why he was called up instead of Peraza, you got me there.
He's a 30 year old 3B/OF from Cuba that the Yankees signed years back, but he never got a shot with them after hitting .319 in AAA last year. I think mainly due to getting a bad rep concerning defense because it wasn't his bat. Braves picked him up as a minor league free agent and he'd been mostly playing third and some OF in AAA before we brought him up.

Ne Plus looking pretty dope with the shades and propped brim down in the dugout.
"For all his tattooings he was on the whole a clean, comely looking cannibal."
In unrelated news, the Cardinals announcer just said that Uribe had the game winning hit for the Mets today. Looks like the trade has had an impact in the last couple of games for the Mets. It'll take some time to see any future benefits for the Braves.

Can't count the number of times the Cardinals' announcer has called our manager Fredi Garcia. I guess when you're the "chosen franchise" you can't be bothered by actually have to learn the names of others teams' managers.

Can't believe the Braves dropped Terd again.

Viz got squeezed, ball three was a strike and ball four caught the bottom line and could've been a strike too depending on ump.
Joe, soliloquizing on the final pitch of that inning: There one!

The Cardinals got their BS run on a missed third strike call last night and half their runs today have come on an overturned call at home plate that required over five minutes to discover some form of "clear and convincing" evidence. Yeah, I realize part of my attitude is jealousy of the Cardinals success but everything about this franchise, fans, and announcers is really getting on my nerves right now.
