    Lineup Tweaking - what would you do?

    Current Roster 1 Heyward 2 Pastornicky 3 Freeman 4 JUpton 5 Gattis 6 BJupton 7 Johnson 8 Simmons Pastornicky is quick and seems to hit the ball the other way well. Gives more oppurtunity to hit and run and stay out of the double play. If Lastella comes up 1 Heyward 2 Lastella 3 Upton 4...

    Didn't realize players had an issue w/Chipper's prediction

    My only problem with Chipper was that he made himself part of the postseason story for the Braves. He should have recognized that his statements made a "Headline". Postseason play is about being in a zone and being focused on the task at hand and he interrupted that by his statements. He...

    Spring Training Gamethread/Discussion

    I love discussion, it's just when trying to keep up with the games via the Gamethread it makes it tough to get through when the discussions in the middle of that days game aren't about that game. I disagree about the Spring Training Results not mattering. They should be taken with a grain of...

    Spring Training Gamethread/Discussion

    Ok, then maybe I will start reading again during the season. Too much of the same arguments to wade through when just trying to see whats going on that day. It would be one thing if the discussions were changing from day to day in relation to the game that was played that day. Back to box...
