    The Braves announced their Opening Day roster. No late changes. sThey're going with three catchers. Lane Adams, Shane Carle and Rex Brothers are all on the roster.

    Y'know, setting the competence of former decision makers aside, we had an almost unfathomable run of bad luck during the first part of this decade. If it's true that these things even out over the long run, I'd say this franchise is way overdue for a run of spectacular good luck.

    Go Braves!

    I think we still have another year or two paying off our 1990s luck debt.

    I hope you are right. There is only so much of pitchers arms exploding and our best player getting hit in the face that I can handle.

    Lane, Shane and Rex are talismanic names. I think AA has uncovered the latest market inefficiency.

    Small roster construction nitpick. On opening day we have not a single left handed bat on the bench.

    I guess Tucker will be the main lefty bench bat when Acuna is called up.

    If you say it twice, are you likely to be twice as right, or does it operate on jinx grammar?
