8-27-13 GDT: Indians at Braves

[zbhargrove]

I don't disagree, but the Braves are also trying to hold onto the best record in the league. BJ is doing nothing to help us win.

Neither is Schafer...

[zbhargrove]

It's almost September....what's left to figure out? Only thing figured out here is the that he is hot garbage and this season is a wash. I wish people showed as much patience in Schafer as they do with BJ.

Did you miss the years of 2009-2011? I think there was plenty of patience with Schafer... and then his Houston debacle in 2011/2012... He's a career MLB hitter of .230/.314/.319/.632 in 945 at-bats... how much more patience does he get exactly? At least BJ has shown he can be a very good MLB player.

Not to mention... a .727 minor league career OPS (.571 OPS in 400+ career AAA at-bats)... Schafer is simply not a good player. I will agree... neither is BJ this year... but BJ clearly has the bigger upside and potential here.

Since Heyward is suspended I will fill in for him.

If we dont score in the first inning its game over for us.

Thought that was Niners?

Very nice pitch.

[CrimsonCowboy]

Nice hook

Love some wood.

[Russ2dollas]

Bourn making me mad....if he didn't have Boras we prob sign him for about what he got from Cleveland, maybe a little less.........and no BJ

[Dalyn]

Simmons looks okay. Thankfully.

[thethe]

This ump has no clue where the inside corner is against right handers. He took two strikes away from Wood already today.

And probably no Justin. Old argument: BJ and Justin for 3 years together OR Prado and Bourn for ??? years.

Bourn is going to be horrible in two years. BJ has been horrible now but I really believe there is still good baseball in front of BJ.

[Dalyn]

Plunking Christ.

Great patience Inglebird!

[thethe]

I love me some Terdo!

[thethe]

A guy who knows how to shorten his swing with two strikes. AMAZING!!

[Dalyn]

Simmons is just...

Ruined the inning. Still learning

[thethe]

Simmons is just...

He will learn how to hit IMO. It will take time but I think in two years he will be a mid 700 to 800 OPS hitter.

YOU CAN'T STOP ELLIOT JOHNSON!!!
