I'd still take him as a bench option. Tell him to swing for the fences and either put a run(s) on the board or strike out.

You would have to pinch run for him every time he got on base and no fucking way he can field. If he makes a return to the big leagues its gonna have to be in the AL.

Still, I'd take him as the first option off the bench. We literally have zero power on the bench, and unless it's a day that Freeman/Kemp is given a day off, we might go the entire season without a pinch hit homer.

Well we got a free swing against Washington so cant complain.

It's gonna be important to try and get a lead before the 5th. Another wave of storms is on the way.

I live about 2 hours west of Atlanta and it just got done raining pretty good about 15 mins ago.

I live a little over an hour(not accounting for traffic) north of Atlanta and it's rained damn near all day.

I don't remember what it's like to score first.

Rain Delay. Man,Chipper is very knowledgeable I would love to see him as our hitting coach or even our Manager one day. Theres no telling how many more HRs he would have hit if he played in Suntrust.

Or if we didn't sign that bum Vinny Castilla and Chipper didn't have to move to left field for a couple of years, which lead to a lot of injuries.

Game postponed. Do we resume play or do we restart the game later on?

I remember a game when Gary Sheffield was on the team, he had a 2 run homer before the rain, but it was taken away because the game was restarted.

Did you guys see where Tom Glavine is part of a team trying to buy the Marllns?

I think it's pretty much a done deal. Think he was a smaller member of the Jeter/Jeb Bush group.

I didnt think Vinny Castilla was that bad. He had a nice 2nd year. I didnt expect him to be as good here at Turner field as he was with the Rockies.

 

[Mistaken4193]

And once again we fall behind in the 1st.



HOLY SHIT WHAT A CATCH!!

 

[Mistaken4193]

How do the Cardinals keep taking these nobodys and win with them??

 

[Edisto_Tiger]

left 2 stranded.

 

[Mistaken4193]

I bet we ranked near the bottom in ERA

 

[Mistaken4193]

I know Dansby played great last year but at what point do you consider sending him down??

 

[Edisto_Tiger]

We are getting shallacked.

 

[Edisto_Tiger]

Top of the order coming up. Maybe we can score a few and make it look respectable.
