    Well, other than his having no range, iron hands, getting poor jumps, and his inaccurate arm, what exactly is your beef with his defense?

    Hahaha.

    It's also funny that we sign Gomes who everyone knows is a DH-type, yet in a game where we have the DH available we DH a good defensive LFer and play the DH in the field. I can't make this stuff up.

    Might be a bad idea to trade for Hanley as after watching that play on Jace's flyball. I am afraid he'd take Simmons head off when Simmons goes after balls like that. :)

    It seems like Hanley has been around since the Braves won in 1995.

    Good first inning by Perez even with that cheap leadoff hit.

    Of course, bloated Ortiz will have a career series against Atlanta.

    Perez pitched him good too, that was a good change-up very low he just served over second. Good sinker to clear that getting the DP ball after falling behind the next batter too.

    I like that fastball inside to lefties. Maddux-like.

    And Baby Harang is having them for lunch. I guess that puts him atop the food chain.

    I really like his sinker personally, plus his other pitches are not bad either.

    Is it a coincidence that so far this season two teams have fired their managers after having a chance to watch them match wits with Fredi?
