there's no need to go after a third baseman. camargo will prove to be an above average third baseman and riley is waiting in the wings as a legit top prospect now. go get a win the world series starter or do little and sit back and watch the braves win for a decade. but whatever you do...

trading wilson would be a huge mistake

sure, but the price may not be worth it. otherwise let's give away every prospect we have for this year's randy johnson/justin verlander if going for it this year looks like the move to make.

i agree! johan will be excellent manning the hot corner and with riley lurking, a trade for a third baseman today doesn't make a lot of sense. if the braves are going to make a move, a top line starter has got to be it. but even then, i wouldn't give away too much unless you're getting a...

this guy is why you should take your BABIP readings with a grain of salt. Chris Johnson having a lucky half season should be why you use BABIP. Beyond that, you're just punishing players for getting hits. TG was the ****ing greatest and surely will be remembered by the advanced stats folks as...

I'd tell the braves to take their contract and go **** themselves for playing the service time game. The Braves are also telling all of you fans out there that this season is a waste. Don't bother. Their best player will be in the minor leagues. The only reason to do this is if you don't think...

aw your asperger's doesn't allow you to understand humor. sad.

Acuna needs to be on the opening day roster. this opinion may or may not be influenced by the fact i have opening weekend tickets at coor's field. :cooter:

can these velocity numbers increase as guys start to hit their prime? if so, i'd be curious to see an example of a guy who did significantly start mashing as he grew into his body or something like that.

go back and look at maddux year by year. he was almost always better than the league. so basically, he invalidates that entire ****ing stat. it's total bull**** to suggest that all balls in play are equal. but basically with babip the claim is that the more hits you get, the luckier you are...

do people really have a superior handle on these numbers around here or are do they just happen to be aware of the latest made up stat and enjoy flaunting what they perceive to be an important data point?

babip has got to be the dumbest stat...especially when looking at young guys i mean, it's great to see if chris johnson is pulling some bs out of his ass, but beyond that, people tend to get way too bogged down and forget to watch the players. i like to point to greg maddux and his actual...

Spring Training has arrived. Let's see some photos. With him and Hudson back in uniform, this year really looks promising!!!

funny, i have a friend who is a huge braves fan because she grew up going to see the BOSTON braves. anyway, you're probably right about the braves now. especially without TBS and the need to worry about black people downtown, they've gone full trumpneck. where did you come from cotton eye...

you could take your middle to low payroll squad and try to do the same thing the big money teams are doing. or maybe you could try a different approach and actually try to gain a statistical advantage. the mets were mentioned as some example of a failure on your part. you also failed to...

so the braves are gonna suck for the next 15 years?

I pointed this out months ago and added that maitan being fat as hell should raise some alarms. Guess now it's ok to admit it now he gone? I recall being told I'm a moron and such. Sigh.

braves should have sold high on greg maddux in the mid 90s. imagine the return...

yep, the braves were actually pretty stupid for promoting freeman so quickly. how many world series rings does he have? none. a decade of wasted service time. understanding what a waste of our lives having freeman up with the big club this long is called being intelligent.

nice recruiting class for vandy wonder how many will actually enroll
