Braves sign Pierzynski

[skillet]

Of all the moves we've made this offseason, this is the worst.

 

[VirginiaBrave]

Wanted Rossy back myself. Never have understood why he was allowed to leave in the first place. Guys like him are real hard to find.

 

[Braves1976]

Wow. Internet tough guys. Gotta love em.

Yea, that really fits my track record. Heyward is a broken record that just says the same junk over and over again and he needs to learn some manners.

 

[Sheffield10]

When I think of deuchebags in baseball there's Puig, there's A-Rod, there's PierzynskI.

Weird. Everyone always says the most positive things about Puig and how great of an influence he is.

A-rod is also a good teammate...

Maybe you mean perceived by the league and not their clubhouse?

But who cares what the league thinks? I love Bryce Harper... His team loves him... The league hates him. Who cares?

 

[UNCBlue012]

Alright, I'll be honest, I don't understand what this team is doing. I really don't. I think we've improved the bench, bullpen and pitching, yet we've sacrificed the integrity of the team in doing so and got rid of a hometown idol in Heyward. We could of picked up anyone but AJ. I don't hate him as a catcher, but he sucks as a person it seems and Laird would of been fine to bring back. I just don't get it. Our offense sucks ass and we still won't decide what the hell we are doing with this team. We saved money, yay. That's great... yet our team could suck because we don't seem to want to make many moves for the long term. The fact is that Jason or Justin should of gotten a big pay day to stay.

Laird would've taken league minimum plus annual buffet privileges to come back.

 

[Garmel]

Laird would've taken league minimum plus annual buffet privileges to come back.

The Braves probably thought giving Pierzynsky two million would have been cheaper than feeding Laird.

 

[Dalyn]

This is close to going from a Mukaki Rebuild to a full Bukaki.

 

[Garmel]

BTW, with Laird and Harang gone what are we going to do about the fat jokes? Are there any suitable replacements?

With AJ it's Pukaki

Wood's a little chubby. Fredi. BJ once he starts eating to cover his sadness. Markakis will probably gain 150 or so while sitting around having someone feed him Doritos dipped in butter. For his neck, you know.

Yeah, it's not the same though. I'm going to miss Harang and Laird.

 

[Dalyn]

They will definitely leave a large void behind.

 

[The Tariff King]

When Hart said we were rebuilding I didn't know we'd be downsizing as well.

[Braves1976]

Don't fret, Harang is still available to sign to be our fat boy.

 

[Dalyn]

With the physical pending...

 

[cajunrevenge]

I guess this means Gattis really will be in LF full time.

 

[Hawk]

Why do you think Fredi was at Honeybaked Ham? Clearly they have some sort of hush agreement in place with Laird, which involves his mouth being full.

 

[Dalyn]

That's what the Marquis de Sade might consider a silver lining.
