    GDT #41: 5-17-14 Braves (Harang) @ Cardinals (Miller) 2:15 EST

    I suggest a game thread boycott tomorrow. No thread, or comments. Maybe that will reverse the hex. We gotta try something...

    40 years ago today...

    At almost 14 years old but not having gone through my growth spurt yet, I still managed to come within an inch of hitting my head on the ceiling at my parents house in the living room. I can still see that room and everything in it, where the TV was and the furniture they had back then. It was...

    GDT#4, 4/4/'14: Braves (Hale) @ Nationals (Zimmerman) 1:05 PM

    I think any plate is his kryptonite. He looks way too thick through the middle, as if the only weight he lifted during the offseason must have been on his fork.

    Greg Maddux, Tom Glavine, Frank Thomas elected to Cooperstown!

    The argument that he spent almost as long in Chicago as Atlanta and almost as many games pitched is weak. Here are the numbers that matter, which many articles I have seen very conveniently forget to mention...194 wins-88 loses as a Brave-133-112 as a Cub. A 2.63 ERA as a Brave, 3.61 as a Cub...

    Bravos acquire C-Doumit from Twins for Gilmartin.

    As I see it, given the fact that Chavez has reportedly re-signed with the D-Backs, this deal is the backup to missing out on Chavez. And not a bad back-up plan either, IMO.

    Around Baseball Offseason Edition - Derek Jeter will retire at seasons end

    Every time baseball has extra money coming in to the sport owners go on a spending binge and then turn around three years later lamenting the "economics" of the game and crying poor mouth. It's ridiculous everytime it happens, but the absurd amounts being paid to players has reached mind...
