lol.. passive aggressive doesn't work on me my friend..

Did you just learn that phrase? You've tried to use it several times today after never using it before.
Did someone at the local Wells Fargo branch try to teach you some psych 101?
By the way, you're not using it correctly.
Aaaaand Matt Adams sucks.
I have used it before.. and it is very correct.. just like I have been on Newk.. well except on that last inning. you read my comments on him earlier today about his control and command and how his really bad games are when he is consistently up and away from righties... pull his pitch chart for tonight and you will see I was correct. I didn't even have to use a spread sheet either... see that was another example of passive aggressiveness..
Coppy
And I have used it more today because you have been extra ornery the last two days.. I would guess because Hann has been active and the Braves have not looked great.. That usually puts you in your happy place..

I just hope Coppy is paying attention. Hahn is putting on a clinic titled "Rebuilding 101 and 102".
Coppy is teaching "Spinning the Wheels of a Rebuild and Going Nowhere 101".
Well, this baseball night stunk. Braves lose and I'm seeing reports my hometown could be losing our minor league team.

who is that?

Mobile. A news report out of Huntsville says an Arizona investment group is trying to buy them and move them there, Baton Rouge, or Savannah. Truth be told, attendance has been mediocre at best the past few years and Mobile's stadium is now the oldest in the Southern League.

So are we sellers now?
We need to sell. I love this team's upside, but the future is bright and we need to stop joking with ourselves about the present. We're probably missing out on really good deals because the FO can't get ahold of their pride.

This. I feel like a bad fan, but I know this team is 5 good pieces (2 good SP, 2 good hitters, and another pen piece) away from being serious contenders. They need to have a bad week in Los Angeles and Arizona. With the Cubs game today, the team needs to go 1-7 or 2-6 to hopefully convince the FO that this year isn't the year to buy. Try to find contenders who want to trade with you in bulk to try to get a good piece (any takers for Garcia and Adams? any takers for Phillips and a pen piece?).
THIS. They got a little too big for their britches with the good 5-2 week against Washington and Arizona.

I love the idea, and I know he ended his career with us years ago.
They just don't mesh though. He is huge into advanced statistics, and this job would either require him managing like a dinosaur (like we see with Snit and would see with Ron Washington) or the front office adapting. Based on the front office's stubbornness, I don't see them adapting or hiring anyone that would require them to learn managing and running a baseball franchise in the 2010's.
What about bad catchers.
"I am a victim, I will tell you. I am a victim."
"I am your retribution."
A glaring omission on my part, thanks for rectifying it.
Well this series is going exactly like I thought it would. Time to sell and put Swanson in AAA for ****'s sake.
I don't care if we sell or not; but don't buy if it costs us Albies, Swanson, acuna, allard, soroka, or maitan. Sell jamie Garcia for sure though, so Wisler/sims can finish this year in the rotation. Kinda like the idea of keeping dickey for next season, unless we're blown away by a deal
July record = 7-6
