    I am not sure Olivera will prove much if any better than Garcia, if so that will be embarrassing. They are both 30 and Cuban, but one was had via minor league free agency and other we gave up A LOT. But on the bright side, Garcia is now hitting .270 after his 7th homer so far. Good game for him today.

    I expect if nothing else he'll be someone very useful vs lefties going forward. Garcia came in hitting .357 vs lefties with a 1.179 OPS in 28 AB's (including 4 homers).

    Anyone think that the Yanks will score 20 today?

    SP, and offense is the concern, mainly the offense, no bats at all.
    In other words, the two most important parts of a team need major improvements.

    Depends on the wind on their next field goal attempt. :)

    Ok, put your thinking caps on. Who's the worst bullpen arm we've had this year?

    Some guys have performed their way out of contention: Viz, Grilli, Long John, Gomes. Anyone else is fair game.

    This guy can't sleep anymore if he don't take him out.

    30+ runs over three games, and outs still to get.

    Certainly overkill, thankfully not literally in this case.

    Maybe the Braves need Charlie Daniels to become a Braves fan and redo the Devil went down to Georgia. :)

    Why did anyone of these guys earn at least 10 times more then myself?
    Some are getting millions? Why? Swisher & Bourn 30 Mio?

    Give the money to me. I only can be better out there.

    Two touchdowns and two field goals.

    Pretty sure Charlie is already a Braves fan. Don't think he can pitch but he plays a mean fiddle.
