GDT: 810 Marlinsl @ Braves (Wood)

Oh yeah, he had a right to be pissed, but it's the first inning. Try to stay in the game a little longer. If it happened again later, then get gone.

I still don't think the ejection was justified. Johnson was walking back to the dugout.

 

[Gary82]

The Braves hadn't lost in such a long time, I was worrying how I would react to a loss. I was afraid I wouldn't be able to take it.

I'm okay.

Prior to tomorrow's game, OF Todd Cunningham will be optioned to Gwinnett (AAA) and C Gerald Laird will be activated from the DL

Like I said, I'm not pissed the Braves lost. The streak was going to end eventually. I'm pissed at the way it happened. This was a damn ****ty loss. No way around it. Had the Braves just gotten beat because the Marlins earned it then that's one thing, but to just hand it to them and to have our lineup get screwed to hell because Jim Joyce is a ****ing jerk just pisses me off.

Can Laird play infield?

Johnson was ejected because he said the magic words and that will get you thrown out everytime.

 

[Braves1976]

Fredi said x-rays didn't show a break for Walden, that just a bruise and will be sore a couple days. If so that's best news possible.

 

[Heyward]

I am more concerned about losing Walden than losing the streak. Hope it's just a bruise but it looked worse.

Same, he's been huge.

In deep crap if he's out for the year.

Great. Then we'll be down to 5 outfielders and 3 catchers and still only 1 backup infielder. That's why I couldn't understand all the talk about DeRo potentially replacing Janish. Braves need 2 backup infielders. All teams do. The last thing you want is to have BJ or Joey T having to play 3B baring something unforeseen happening.

 

[david55]

Freddie just announced that Walden is OK. X-ray negative. hand will be sore for a couple of days

He still had his back to Joyce and was walking away. A good umpire there just lets him walk away.

Positive news if true.

Are the magic words Armando Gallaraga?

Walden is apparently OK minus a bruise and being sore. He's day-to-day but x-ray showed no broken bone.

Terdo could play it if push came to shove.

He played 1B in Chicago.

But yeah, another backup infielder is needed, cough Pastor.

 

[Braves1976]

Positive news if true.

I was surprised how fast they got the news, usually takes a little longer. They must've x-rayed him right away over same concern.

I'm okay.

I stabbed myself a few times, but other than that I think I took the loss ok.

Joey T can play 1B but he's a complete disaster at 3B.

 

[Braves1976]

It was a waste to send Pastornicky down for an extra outfielder, esp. since he's only got one game at third since being sent down. They've had him at short, his worst position, lately.

 

[bravesnumberone]

One more idea here. If the NL does adopt the DH, let the pitcher hit, play Janish at third and use CJ as the DH.
