*OPENING DAY* 4/6/'15: Atlanta Braves (Teheran) @ Miami Marlins

[Braves1976]

So Maybin is going to be my soapbox bitch from now until he receives legitimate playing time.

I am expecting Fredi to sit him till he's cold as ice, then start him and he'll do nothing because he's cold as ice. He did that with Schafer and other back-ups in the past.

In fairness, Schafer didn't get much hotter than ice cold.

Always an appropriate day to play this:

Listened and just let YouTube keep it going to the next song. Thanks for making my day a little better.

He did once he left here and got regular AB's with the Twins. I say that to be fair because you know I was with you on Schafer, I still am in fact. But it wasn't just Schafer I had in mind, I just brought him up because he was our back-up CFer last year (same role Maybin has now).

Just until the scouting report arrived.

Already 5 pages into the opening day gamethread before the first is thrown? Safe to say ChopCountry is ready to go!

Braves need to step it up to match our intensity.

Batting 5th!

You know how excited a baby gets when trying to talk but not quite there yet? Yeah. That's how we're going to play baseball this year.

My Body Is ready. I don't care how bad we look on paper I choose to believe until proven in actual games.

Paul Byrd: "It feels great to finally have a prototypical leadoff hitter. I don't care what his numbers are it's gonna be fun to see him get on base and cause havoc."

I'm excited. It's like that "I deserve this" feeling that comes each time your dad beats you up.

Go tear another ligament, Paul.

Byrd is just kissing ass cause he knows he's an injury or two away from making the bullpen.

One thing about Paul Byrd is for sure, he needs to lose those glasses.
