    Game Day Thread- 5/7: Braves (Fried) at Dodgers (Ryu)

    I remember it being very loud during my one visit there several years ago.

    The Trump Presidency

    I believe my college professor categorized the USA as a Limited Federal Democratic Republic.

    3/23 GDT Mets

    Guess they are trying to see who goes and who stays on the roster because the pitchers are getting lit up today by the Mets.

    SunTrust being purchased by BB&T

    Definitely a new name. “The combined company will operate under a new name and have around $442 billion in assets, $301 billion in loans and $324 billion in deposits. It will rival U.S. Bancorp, which has about $467 billion in assets.”...

    Thank You. (Forum Users Appreciation Thread)

    It really is a great forum. I rarely post but have been following for many, many years. When the Scout board died, thanks to Patio banning all the regular posters, I sent a private message to one of the non banned survivors and discovered Sav had created this board. I have been here ever since...

    The Don

    Whether you like or dislike the man he is causing our politicians to talk about issues that are important for our country. And I detest that when someone like Trump makes a statement that the opposing party does not agree with they resort to labeling him vile names such as racist and well...

    Pitching Staff

    I think the Braves attempt to sign Lester and if they are successful then they trade Minor. Lester, Julio, Wood, Floyd, Hale is my prediction.

    GDT: 9-16-14: Nationals @ Braves

    Fan stood up and scream "you f***inh suck you piece of s**t" to Bryce Harper. Umpire immediately turned and instructed security to remove the fan.

    GDT 8/17/14: PRIME TIME -- Braves (Minor) vs. A's (Lester)

    If BJ doesn't get it going do you think he could be left off the post season (if we make it) roster or do you think they will keep him as a pinch runner?

    GDT 811/14: Braves (Teheran) vs. Dodgers (Correia). NO KERSHAW SERIES!

    ESPN mic faintly heard BJ refer to Gonzalez as a MF twice.

    CJ or Kubitza or Peraza

    Totally disagree. Shortstop, centerfield and to a lesser degree Catcher are all positions in which you can sacrifice some offense if their defense excels. Star players who produce at both are elite and are paid as such. Simmoms is the best shortstop I have seen the Braves field and can't imagine...

    How's this for a "what if?"

    Think they will swap Harper for BJ? Ha

    GDT: #74 1:35 EST (Santana) Braves @ (Roark) Nats.

    Maybe that it what it will take for the Braves to finally move JHey to Center and demote BJ to a 4th outfielder position for the remainder of the season. We just have to hope he will find "it" before next season. We have so much money invested in him.

    GDT: #72 7:10 PM EST (Minor) Braves @ (Strasburg) Nats....Still no JUp

    We are probably stuck with him til next spring. The Braves will probably decide to eat most of his final contract year salary for the best prospect or relief pitcher they can get. This will take care of Dan but we are stuck with BJ. We just have to make him fill a fourth outfielder role the rest...

    GDT: #72 7:10 PM EST (Minor) Braves @ (Strasburg) Nats....Still no JUp

    BJ needs to take the place of Schaefer. Use him as occasional starter, pinch runner and defensive replacement. Trade Schaefer. Prefer Braves get an outfielder who can leadoff for left or right field. Preferably right field because I don't like trading JHey defense in right for JUpton's.

    GDT: #72 7:10 PM EST (Minor) Braves @ (Strasburg) Nats....Still no JUp

    The Braves have no choice but to go ahead and put JHey in center and bench BJ. Hard to believe you can bench Someone while paying them this much money but BJ has left them no other choice. He brings basically nothing offensively and we have all witnessed his defensive lapses over the past few...

    GDT #68. 6/15. Angels(H. Santiago) @ Braves(M. Minor) ESPN

    Interesting. Has Bethancourt improved offensively. I remember reading that the Braves thought he was ready defensively but his bat wasn't ready for MLB pitching. But if he is basically taking BJ's spot in the lineup I guess he can at least give the Braves that level of offensive performance.
