Come on markakis... 3 pitches dead center.

I saw Freeman for the first time in Rome. He ran full speed into a wall and had to leave the game. I've liked him ever since.

Only because the ghost of KEMvP is protecting him.

Swanson is pressing big time.. He needs a night off.

I'd know this was a joke if it wasn't you posting it

Scherzer tomorrow... sit Swanson and play jace there. I suppose back up is jace, right?

 

[Enscheff]

Kemp was protecting Freeman all the way from SD last season, so protecting him from the bench should be pretty easy.

You heard chip. FF took off last year when KEMvP arrived. KEMvP saved FF's career

Correct. Never mind the small fact that Freeman was already hitting well before Kemp got to Atlanta, and Freeman walked more with Kemp protecting him than before he was acquired. If Chip said so, it must be true!
