about the worst of the ideas I have seen, #1 draft pick here we come
He is worse than Jace...might as well keep jace playing 1st.Originally Posted by depley
**** it, let's lean into the suck.
I've not been looking forward to watching Jace play every night...and that's probably a better outcome than running Loney out there.
Oh, well. This should have been a tank year anyway.
When the posi-braves blame our terrible season on the Freeman injury, let's all remember that we are on a 70 win pace with Freeman.

Posi-Braves do not concern themselves with facts.

Still don't understand why we aren't giving Rio a 10 week run to see what he can do.
vs. righties, let him play 3B and play Jace at 1B.
vs. lefties, let him play 1B while Adonis plays 3B (Even though Rio hasn't played 1B, he can learn in a tank year...Hell, the Braves once threw Ken Caminiti at 1B during one of our NL East winning years).
In a tank season, see what you have even if you don't get desired outcomes.

Worst nightmare .... Losing Freeman.
Second worse nightmare ... Replacing him with James Loney.

We were this close to turning it around.
5 of last 6 and in 2nd place... obviously the braves were gearing up for a WC run. Damn shame this injury makes us wait for the playoffs till next season. Probably only win 76-78 wins now
minor league deal for Loney...it would make sense to give Rio a shot
Don't see why there's all the negativity. Yes Freeman getting hurt is devistating. But we had ZERO replacement options. Loney has played the position. If he fails after a few weeks dump him. If he has a few hits see if anyone will fill the locker room Soda machines for him
Get off my lawn!
Chip Caray tweets deal not done yet.
I'm sure he knows. He's done a deal or two.
He knows a guy, who knows a guy.

But, I prayed every night that the Casey Kotchman era would never return to Atlanta.
Negi-Braves are like Trump. Anything positive they label as "fake news".
I was waiting for the Casey Kotchman posts and was not disappointed, which is the only context in which anything involving Casey Kotchman is not disappointing.

Facts without context don't always say what you think they do.
You are really good at stating a "fact" then spinning it to mean the absolute worst possible outcome. There is almost always a range of outcomes on the basis of a set of facts. Personally, I couldn't bear seeing everything through the "worst possible outcome" lens. I get that you won't be disappointed, and sometimes you will be pleasantly surprised, but I just can't see the Braves through that lens.
