  1. Ray King vs. righties this year in admittedly small sample .324 .418 .603 .347 .423 .474 in '06 .352 .432 .549 in '05 Point being King shouldn't get out Chipper and Tex dammit.
  2. Or they'll go 1-2-3. Come on guys Ray King is awful against righties.
  3. Ray King got Tex and Chipper batting right handed. I can only assume McCann hits a lefty HR now to keep in line with the insanity.
  4. Though on the side of ripping Yost, he's pinch hit 4 guys this game, and probably all of them are worse than Bill hall and Johnny Estrada.
  5. I meant actual hitters, not guys like Laynce Nix. Though, I do feel a tiny bit bad for Yost, every single move he makes now that doesn't work out, he's gonna get absolutely reamed for.
  6. Laynce Nix sighting!! Remaining on the bench: Johnny Estrada Bill Hall
  7. I'd rather face Gwynn with Yates than Jenkins with Mahay.
  8. Walks Hart on 4 pitches, and it's probably not that bad of an outcome, Mahay is pretty strictly a LOOGY IIRC.
  9. We had him for a short while early 2000s. BIG K
  10. Yost opts to not double switch out Braun despite him ending the inning. Wonder if last night had anything to do with that... Joe Dillon comes up replaced by Gross instead.
  11. Pete Orr and his 37 OPS+, after showing sac bunt in the first pitch, reaches on a bunt single.
  12. 10 games left in the season, Pete Orr at the plate.
  13. 11 games left in the season, Seth McClung in the game.
  14. Please don't let Braun be the potential go ahead run.
  15. Wonder where the Braves would be without Scott Thorman as their 1st baseman for half the year.
  16. Suppan due up 2nd, I'd guess/hope they pinch hit for him.
  17. Selig was dumb to ever allow corporate ownership into the club. It could wind up biting him in the ass one of these days.
  18. shouldn't be a problem freeing a spot by 10/15 if they make the playoffs - Cotts - Novoa - Mateo - Ohman add Floyd, Trachsel, and Monroe if they don't I wouldn't be in a huge rush to deroster Mateo if they didn't have to.
  19. Braun was playing 3B at the end of his college career according to thebaseballcube. His playing SS through(at the latest) his sophomore year doesn't mean much to me considering the nature of everyone being a SS in college. Yost(as I'm sure you've read) claimed Bush was coming back out for the 7th, but he tired going 1st to 3rd. I don't really buy that, but I can't come up with another reason as to why Bush would hit but not come back out. That was vintage Dusty.
  20. I was stunned at his early season performance, I know relievers are inconsistent year to year, but Howry had a nice long track record. I expected Eyre's numbers, but Howry's poor performance had me baffled. Great to see him turned around.
  21. Middle Relievers just got a lot more valuable. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=3029117 EDIT: Fixed link
