    Digression: I think they could remove Marty Bergen from the Hall of Fame and replace him with either Del Crandall or Joe Torre, and literally no one on earth would complain. The Braves would keep the same number of HoFers, it would be a catcher for catcher swap, even if their cases are too weak for your tastes they're absolutely still stronger than Bergen's, and because he murdered all of his children he has no descendants to complain.

    Because of what he did to the Braves with the Yankees, Joe Torre is dead to me.

    Because who couldn't win with that team and payroll, I actually believe his case as a player was better than his case as a manager.

    Melancon has pitched the last two games. Could see Greene in the 9th

    Was being somewhat facetious with the comment but, yeah, I'm still a little bit bitter about those two WS losses--particularly the one in '96. 8^)

    Damn, they're booing and mocking the dude as he walks off the field injured. Classy.

    Greene is warming, looks like it'll be him.

    Legares doing his best Anrduw Jones imitation. Playing shallow then running down a ball that appeared to be over his head. Great play.
