7/8 GDT: Atlanta Braves (41-44) vs. Washington Nationals (51-35)

At the point we are up 6-0 we really need to move Freeman back to 1b and get a defensive replacement for Kemp. No excuse to leave defensive albatrosses in like that.

It's a good feeling to have to think Freddie is going to rope a double every time he is hitting.

Saying a team is flawed doesn't mean they aren't good...

Name a team that isn't flawed? You sound so dumb.

Short bench won't allow it. They only have a 4-man bench, so you are already using up two spots by doing that.

One person said the're very flawed and another said they aren't very good

Well he quoted me directly, and I never said they weren't good. I was commenting that you can be good and still have flaws. He also said "some of you are so dumb" for saying they aren't good... last time I checked one person is much less than some. And if he wasn't referring to me, he had no reason to quote me.

Giles??

Thanks brah! You sound really intelligent yourself.

I quoted you because you piggybacked on his dumb comment.

Giles??

Gotta be... No one else could be this grumpy on such a fantastic baseball day.

Actually no I didn't. I helpfully pointed out to you that a team can still be good even if they are flawed. I'm sorry... I know its hard.

Games like this are perfect examples of when they need to give Kemp's legs a few defensive innings off.

Every time I see Julio take the ball out of his glove in the middle of his wind up for the whole world to see his grip, I wonder if batters are able to see it.

Maybe Canadian.. loves McGriff and the NewExpos... We need to introduce him to Giles if nothing else.

Adams seems like a pretty solid first baseman.

That's actually a really interesting observation.

Rivera did that too.. I always wonder that... but then, you pretty much knew he was going to cut it in on your hands... or bust you upstairs with a four seamer.

some day I'll ask a service of you

Senator, heh, in all fairness I think my client's statement should be heard.

 

[bravesfanMatt]

So does this mean Ross gets the ball tomorrow? I thought we had Newk vs. Roark.. but that isn't the case now.

I don't love the Nats been a Braves fan my entire life, just pointing out the truth. Some guy said the Nats are not good which is mind blowing. McGriff was a great Brave btw.

 

[auyushu]

Giles??

Hah, I almost posted the same thing. If GF hadn't posted recently I would think he came back as an alter based on this thread.
