Gotta get more prospects out of him. Unless we are contending..then we gotta find a way to put him at 3rd.

We're probably gonna get a real big return on investment when we trade him to the Yankees. They have a top farm system and they need a first baseman.

In a perfect world, Adams would take to third base since he throws right handed and bats left and we could have both in the lineup, but he strikes me as a guy that can only play first, or maybe you can stick him left, but Kemp plays there.

Yeah, I was going through the OF and there's no where for him out there. Didn't consider 3rd, but that would be awesome if he could play it, otherwise it just seems like a real shame to let him go. He's been good.

It's about time we fleeced St Louis in a trade. I say they still owe us after we sent them Adam Wainwright for one season of JD Drew.

I guess at the end of the day we won the Heyward trade since we flipped Shelby Miller for Inciarte and Swanson.

We might be getting rid of Markakis or Kemp at the deadline though. So he could slide into one of their spots

It was the best case scenario for us after Freddie went down. I certainly didn't expect this kind of production.

Really, I hope he can play third. I don't think he;d be any more of a defensive liability than Adonis Garcia and I'm far from being sold on Rio Ruiz.

I like Comargo, but if you can get both Freddie and Adams in the lineup, you do it.

JD Drew was pretty fucking good that year we had him....but still doesnt equal what WainWright has produced.

Meanwhile, Oregon State is beating the fuck out of LSU. It was 9-0 the last time I flipped over there.

I like this Ump tonight. He has called a solid game IMO.

Rio had better at least get on base.

No reason to take Dickey out.

You could have given you BP the night off Snitker. Pitch count was in the 80's.

Stupid decision by Snitker. If Camargo was in scoring position I would understand..but he was at 1st.

Snitker is a AAA manager. He is a player developer but he is shit at in game managing. Belongs back at Gwinett and Ron Washington should be our Big League manager.

Snit is a bit too quick with the hook. Gems from our starting pitchers have been pretty rare. Take full advantage when you get them.
