    8/7... Rubber game vs cards

    And to think the the Front Office messed up so badly on calculating signing bonus usage from their pool, that they wasted an opportunity to get that guy locked up and in the system instead of having to purge another year and possibly get him as a #1 once in a generation draft pick.

    Olivera traded for Kemp

    FO Logic: "Don't question us, he's a centerfielder, he played that before with the Dodgers. He's played it before, and he played it well, gold glove caliber defense in center, so expect that in left which is much easier."

    Olivera traded for Kemp

    Remember that one time when Matt Kemp was absolutely on fire and having an out of this world MVP worth season and our great strategic manager decided not to intentially walk him in extra innings at Dodger Stadium to prolong the game and give us a chance to win. Great times.

    We will always be a second fiddle organization

    **** no! I hate the Yanks, and love the Braves. I want the Braves to do well, to win. I don't just want them to win, but win bigly. The fact of the matter is the Braves haven't been winning, at all. They no longer win on the field, they don't win trades, and they certainly don't win in free...

    We will always be a second fiddle organization

    We were in the 90s and couldn't beat the Yanks, and going forward during the rebuilds with the next potential dynasty we won't be able to beat the Yanks.

    Mark Bradley thinks Braves trade for Trout in 2018

    Upnext on Scout: Mike Trout will be a Brave, and the Braves won't even have to trade for him He's told teammates that when he becomes a free agent he's going to Atlanta. He's made it so obvious and clear to the Angels staff that they will release him of his contractual obligations with the...

    2016 Trade Deadline Rumors and Moves

    I'd still like to take a flyer on McCann if the Yanks pick up a significant portion of his salary. Yes he's on the decline but a veteran catcher like him could be valuable for our young pitchers going forward, him and Flowers.

    Our farm system is truly ridiculous...

    No doubt that is true, but there have been hundreds of pitchers throughout the years that have been dubbed as TOR type pitchers that flamed out or didn't amount to anything due to one reason or another. It's hard to say. Certainly we have the numbers which makes our odds much greater of actually...

    Trade Deadline: What are you willing to do?

    Hart on radio this morning "I'm excited. I'm fresh. I look forward to seeing what is going to transpire with the job that John (Copella) and the entire staff have done. Countless hours and discussions have taken place, and we are in a very good place, no great place right now. We're on the...

    WikiLeaks leak emails from DNC that show party collusion against Bernie.

    I used to respect Bernie, but disagreed with his philosophies. I no longer respect him, he just ran for president of the United States, and to put that much blood sweat and tears into something, and all along trying to honor your country and the people of country, and find out that the system...

    Robert Fick/David Ortiz

    I was one of those in the camp of wanting Ortiz, watching him hit everyday in Minnesota I was pretty sure he was going to be an offensive force once he got out of Gardenhire's mismanagement. That being said we have no idea how Ortiz would have done in Atlanta, having to play first base everyday...

    Braves interested in Chris Sale...

    All speculation at this point. I think he's going to Baltimore. He got in a fight with front office personnel tonight and was pulled from the clubhouse. Maybe they told him he was going to the Braves and his response was..."I'm not going to that **** show."

    ESPN E:60 Ernie Johnson Jr.

    Apparently it's s couple of years old, but if you've missed it like I did watch it. It is truly riveting and heart touching. What a great great human being. WOW, there were parts that broke me down into tears like a little child. I've always liked Ernie, for his broadcasting ability, but I have...

    What would you do to improve the game?

    1) Go to 4 divisions and 4 wildcards....wildcards are based on total win-loss record and not division 2) Balanced scheduling within a division. Yes this will cause some recourse based on the changes in 1 as some might have it tougher than others depending on divisions but life is not fair. One...
