    Why did we trade for Culberson and why are we so insistent on keeping him on the roster? You can't swing a dead cat in AAA without hitting a guy like Culberson.

    Wonder who will be available out of the pen today. Winkler probably isn’t and Viz might not be. Might just be Carle and Minter available from the guys we usually use late in games.

    Won't he be gone long enough that he needs to do a rehab assignment? He'll be out 20+ days.

    I read last week that Snit said he was not doing baseball activities.

    Because the player going the other way was Matt Kemp.

    What else did you expect to get in return?

    I think we got him b/c he was owed 500K and AA liked him as a last guy on the bench.

    When Swanson is up he better be gone. If they option tucker to keep Culby then I will assume Culby has some dirt on AA.

    You just DFA him and he'll fly through waivers. We have better players in AAA now.

    We could at least have gotten a young and useless player that wouldn't take up a 40 man spot. It really seeems like AA has some strange affinity for Culberson.

    AA is right to like having a back-up at short that is a plus defender at short and probably other positions too. Plus before today he had been hitting a lot better.

    At the time Camargo was the guy at 3B. Culberson was acquired to back up SS/3B.

    They couldn't afford anything else, and they were forced to pick Flaherty off the scrap heap.

    Culberson isn't blocking anyone, the Braves didn't lose anyone to the R5 draft, so his presence is inconsequential.

    Rough game for Ronnie. Whoever keeps pimping acuña before games needs to stop. He reads these forms and it is putting too much pressure on him
