    Braves president John Hart: “It’s not like I’m breaking up the ’27 Yankees” ....

    I don't disagree with anything we have done so far because I know Jason would have made way more than the Braves would have given him. However I am disapointed that we still have the same incompatant manager that should have been fired when the season was over. To make all of these moves and not...

    Braves donate Justin Upton to Padres for prospects

    I think this is great. As long as we have Fredi as the manager it doesn't matter who is on the field anyway.

    AJC: Braves Could Go Into Rebuild Mode, Aim Toward 2017

    May as well trade Kimbrel as well. No reason to need the best closer in baseball after you get rid of most of your best players. Plus Fredi will use him wrong in the 15 saves opportunities he has next year anyway.

    Another reason I can't stand Bobby Cox!!!!

    Ok, I'll play your silly game. If a manager is only as good as his talent, why even have one? If you knew anything about coaching at all, you would know that a good manager gets the best out of his players. I can take a average team and coach circles around a lot of coaches with better talent.

    Another reason I can't stand Bobby Cox!!!!

    Yes and no. We blame Bobby for Fredi not being fired but there is no way he knew Joe Maddon would be available. Plus, had Fredi been fired we may have already hired someone by now. So this thread is irrelevant.

    Fredi Gonzalez Supporters Thread

    I wanted change and I guess we got that with Wren being canned. If he can come back next year and show that his flaws were 90% because he was handcuffed by Wren and he actually shows he is a good manager then I am for him being back. I do not believe that is the case but I am willing to give him...

    AJC Q&A With Fredi Gonzalez

    Another thing for you guys that don't think the manager job is important when it comes to wins and losses. Why even have one? Stop wasting money on a manager if they don't matter when it comes to wins and losses. Plus please tell me what Fredi does well to the ones that think he is so great.

    AJC Q&A With Fredi Gonzalez

    Exactly but if your team can't bunt for **** it is the Managers job to fix the problem. If that means telling the hitting coach to work on it with certain guys then you do it. We lost a lot of games this year not being able to bunt. We also lost a lot of games where we couldn't manufacture runs...

    AJC Q&A With Fredi Gonzalez

    You are saying a manager can't teach his hitters how to bunt in the middle of a 162 game season? That is a load of BS! If he can't he needs to be shown the door. It don't take 15 minutes to practice bunting in the cages. Get someone that knows how to do it and go through a cage session. As for...

    So... what now? Season is over and Hart broke our hearts.

    It's funny that the same roster all of you say is so flawed won 96 games the year before. Also No one is arguing that players like Uggla and Bj needed to go or that they pretty much sucked. Fredi screwed the pooch last year in the playoffs when he didn't bring in Kimbrel. I thought he did do a...

    AJC Q&A With Fredi Gonzalez

    The same players that won him the NL East championship the year before? You know the ones he screwed over by not bringing in Kimbrel in the 8th inning against the Dodgers? You know, not playing to win. Are these the same guys you speak of that are soooo bad? When a team dosn't believe in a...

    AJC Q&A With Fredi Gonzalez

    No, some of us are tired of having a guy that is clueless when it comes to managing a team. I am not saying he plays to lose but he sure as hell does not play to win A lot. The guy plays every game like it is game 10 of the season. Some times you have to manufacture runs when it is close. The...

    This team is not in doomed for the next couple of years.

    I never said it was all Fredi's fault. I said it has a lot to do with the FACT he is not a good manager. It is funny how you don't give the manager any credit in Washington and you don't blame Fredi at all for the awful job he has done.

    This team is not in doomed for the next couple of years.

    Matt Williams has not already been canned by another club when he failed miserable. I don't know how good Williams is but he obviously has them playing at a high level. Argue that fact!

    This team is not in doomed for the next couple of years.

    Managers absolutely make a huge difference on a team. I have coached baseball all the way up to big time High School age kids. Yes the players have to perform but a good manager can even enhance that. It goes back to preparation and approach. One of the biggest things Fredi sucks at is managing...

    GDT x 3: Braves at Phillies before taking it to the house...

    It is ok to hope we lose. I for one have been pulling against them for the last month in hopes of getting a better manager. I mean we was not going to make the playoffs anyway so why does it even matter anymore.

    This team is not in doomed for the next couple of years.

    Even if he had a stacked lineup he would screw it up. If he comes back we are doomed. #FireFredi
