The bear is in 2 week hibernation stage

CB, your table is waiting.

Actually CB is growing on me. You can see he got the "it" factor.

Bob Wickman is kicking the horribly disfigured 60-year-old prostitute out of his bed, lighting a Winston, and trying to remember his former agent's name.

Kevin McGlinchy beat him to the phone booth though. Whether he had two quarters to rub together is another matter.

This thread needs some Spooneybarger in it. Or some Spooneybargerring.

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

I think Roberto Hernandez needs a mention. Ray King too.

 

[The Tariff King]

I have no issues with Roberto. He was from what I hear a really good guy with charity and such. Just sucks he couldn't cut it and do an Alfonseca 2004.

Spooney I heard was a bit of a pompous ass and bad mouthed us after we traded him.

 

[CyYoung31]

Didn't Hernandez have over 300 Major League saves? He also made the All-Star team a couple times. Alfonseca was **** until he got here.

These guys definitely are no Blaine Boyer

I'm a Kevin Gryboski fan myself.

He beefed with Leo, IIRC.

Correct, among other players. Spooney wasn't a likable chap, to put it mildly.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned Albie Lopez. Perfect swingman, and would add to the enormous battery that is currently Harang-Laird.

Somebody took a picture of Gattis during his epidural. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BroswnAIgAAh8MO.jpg:large

Fredi says Gattis might play as soon as tomorrow night. Gattis will likely play at least three rehab games before being activated. #Braves

Way too early. He's going back on the DL by the end of the month.

I think its a bit hard to make that assumption when you don't really know the specifics about how bad it was. I think I will trust our medical team who is paid good money to help make these decisions over someone who doesn't know much other than there's a bulging disc and pain.
