i understand we are in a rebuilding year and im not sayin go trade hanson or heyward or somethin but the guy is easily a top 5 pitcher or better he has amazing stuff and is still young bobby cox can get the most out of him and we absolutely need an ase
keys to getting peavy, escobar, mortan, schafer (or hernandez) and a lesser prospect would be a great deal think bout it u can go sign orlando caberera who is always solid heyward francouer (who will have a bounce back year) and blanco/diaz/schafer/hernadez (which ever one we dont trade would be our outfield anyway
last but not least like i said 2009 is a building year so right it off and look at 2010 rotation would look like this Peavy, Hanson, Jurrjens, Hudson, Vasquez order that how u want but that is absolutely nasty

3. One of our best up-and-coming starters

Dammit, I think I’ve misunderstood the point of baseball my entire life. See I have always thought that the goal was to win world series’. Apparently I should have been wishing we could just be marginally above average so that every 5th day there will be 35,000 people at the Ted. The real fans will continue to show up and those of us who want to see this team win could give a shit less about what brings the fair weather fans to the ballpark.

When you use poor grammar, you seem uneducated and uninformed. Then you go screaming about how no one takes you seriously or mocks you. Never mind your insane argument, it wouldn’t matter what you were arguing if no one can even decipher what it is you have to say.
Though, I’d argue that your premise is ridiculous, just not as ridiculous as your grammar.

You mean the guy who threw a pathetic number of innings, who walked a ton of guys and whose strikeout totals plunged?
His K/9 were pretty bad, and his BB/9 went through the roof. His pitch counts were up and the only thing he really improved on was his HR rate. A laudable task, but people figured out just not swinging is better against Dice-K, so it makes sense that he gave up fewer HRs.
And, Professor Douche? That’s the best you have? This is going to be a long year.

You shouldn’t judge how good a pitcher is by wins and losses…how do you not understand that? Way too many other people factor into the equation. Villarreal went 9-1 for us one year, but did he earn those wins? Fuck no.
Daisuke’s BABIP against was .260 which is really, really low. I’d be willing to bet serious money that there’s no way in hell his ERA will be below 3.00 this coming season.

Once again, Daisuke had more wins but most of the time there were at least 2 other pitchers helping him close the game out…and that doesn’t even factor in the offensive aspect.
If the Sox bullpen had blown 6 of Daisuke’s leads would we still be having this conversation?

if that happened, his WHIP would be 3.00. and hey dude, look at dice-K’s whip…higher than lester’s. which means he allowed more runners to get on base. and in most cases, he’d get pulled and the bullpen would get out of the jam, whereas lester would stay in the game and get himself out of it, sometimes allowing a run in the process.
is this really so complicated?

you’re drunk.
first off, both of those teams could beat most of the lower level BCS conference teams. TCU’s 2 losses are both to teams in BCS games. boise hasn’t lost.
of northwestern’s 3 losses, 2 were to teams ahead of them in the standings, and the other one happened because the QB & RB both got hurt and the team collapsed.
if we were playing south carolina instead of iowa, we’d win by 20. but missouri? yuck. its gonna take some major fun to beat them.
BIG JOE SUCK ONE

Boise Blows ass. The finally played a real defense and they were exposed.
You sell your northwestern team short. You guys could beat both TCU and Boise State. Mizzpoo isn’t shit. If you guys have a good scheme you should get the upset.

As a fellow Big Tenian i was dissapointed to see NW lose… i didnt think u had a chance coming into the game but u shut down MIzzou’s offense and realy gave them a run for their money… i wish i had that much positive stuff to say about Wisc

I would make some sort of “small conference teams suck” comment, but, as an OU fan, I can’t say anything about Boise.
Though, I will not watch them.
No extra ratings points from me.

Your not talkin about me right? I said in 2010 not 2009 but Hanson will come up in 2009, definatley not Heyward and Hernandez is probably closer to 2011

Why did I waste my time reading all this?
I guess I should be one to talk.
There's nights that I can't even walk.
There's days I couldn't give a fuck.
And in between is where I'm stuck.

Brave Fan turned Yankee
Every player I wanted on the Braves have gone to the Yankees. I knew CC was a long shot but Burnett left and so did Texiera. It just sucks I am not going to lie. Peavy? I would to get him but he doesnt want to come to ATL, lets face it. He rather stay in San Diego where its hot all year around and go to See World with his kids. This offseason has been the worst off season in the history of the Braves.
We always complain that we never have the money to spend but what we forget to realize is no one wants to play ATL. I say give Furcal’s money to Orlando Hudson who’s from South Carolina. Trade KJ for a LF power bat like Carlos Lee or Maggalio and sign Garland and Wolf. Not what I like but we have no options! Garland, Javier, Wolf, Jurregns, Campillo… Escobar, Shafer, Jones, Carlos Lee or Mag, McCann, Jeff, Kotchman, Prado, pitcher

You know
People say, “Don’t feed the trolls,” but this has been the most entertaining thread in a long time.
See World indeed.

Peavy
I felt like I had to relabel it because 90% of this post is just arguing. ATL getting Peavy is not a terrible idea but we are the Braves and that’s not what we do. We have a great farm and we don’t want to throw it away.
