    And traded to the Yankees..... I know I don't follow things as closely as I used to but the names of the prospects to the yankees just look made up. I think we should demand an audit.

    If no expanded playoffs means I can’t have the DH, that’s a sacrifice I’m willing to make.

    I want the DH but expanded playoffs are ****ing terrible. Makes the regular season just about freaking meaningless.

    Reduce the regular season back down to 154 games, eliminate inter league play, expand the playoffs, put in the DH. Everybody should be happy.

    Same. Terrible idea. If they do want extended playoffs they need to shorten the regular season... which we know they won't do.

    8 less game checks for everyone in the league that isn't a DH for the owners to be able to pocket millions more.

    No clue why that won't be unanimously approved.
    Has there EVER been a statement and question a certain someone should absolutely never have made and asked publicly more than...

    Kinda pathetic to see yourself as a message board knight in shining armor. How impotent does someone have to be in real life to resort to playing hero on a message board?

    contracts have nothing to do with the number of in season games played but the bigger mystery to me is why you cant read a one sentence post.

    ESPN story on Simmons and how he was battling depression last year, which ultimately forced him to opt out at the end of the season. Sad to know that he got that low, but very happy to see that sought out help. I hope he continues to recover and be well mentally. He's probably my favorite Brave since Smoltz retired, even higher than Chipper. I just loved watching him play. I honestly hope we can have a reunion with him in a couple years if we move on from Dansby.

    I'd have been more comfortable if he signed on with the Mets. The Dodgers continue to be a nemesis.

    I thought this too, but then I remembered we gotta worry about the Mets before we worry about the dodgers.

    The Mets are the bigger potential threat because we have to play them 19 times. The Dodgers, who knows? They may get knocked out in the LDS. It can happen easily in baseball.
