To be fair, I'm not playing, I've watched all of three innings this series, and I've otherwise been merely checking the boxscore, but I'm exhausted by the Zombie Expos at this point.
 
Speaking of attendance though. Last night was the 3rd best Friday of the year for the Braves. The only two to beat it out were the 4th of July weekend Friday and one when the Cubs came to town.

So you're saying Swanson has helped attendance?

Seeing Swanson hit 8th his 3 starts makes me think snitker doesn't want Swanson up at all. Maybe being a AAA manager made snitker mad that dansby skipped AAA altogether.

You may have a point but it's something I never even considered. I'd like to think that the field manager's input would carry significant weight when the front office makes these types of decisions. I'd also like to think that Snitker is sufficiently professional that he'd want to take maximum advantage of whatever players the FO puts under his direction.
