Swisher to the Braves?
I found this on the NY POST.
The Braves, shut out all over the place this offseason, are among the teams that like Nady and, especially, Swisher.
In trades, the Yanks should now try to add multi-dimensional players who can help across the diamond such as the Angels' Chone Figgins (who might even be able to start in center) and Atlanta's Martin Prado.

I have an idea
How about we just sign your avatar. It sure would make losing much more palatable.
That's a no brainer
Prado for Swisher = Felony

seriously.
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.

It's not just going to cost Prado
Yanks want OF prospects. I wouldn’t include any of our big 3, but I’d include Cody Johnson. If Cody + Prado gets it done, I’d do it in a second.
Where you the poster who said you played COD4?

Got a 360 for Xmas? If so, welcome to the club.
I bought COD4 last week, but after playing COD5 at my brothers house yesterday I wish I had gotten it instead. COD4 is fun though. Still prefer Gears.
Royhobbs, gonna need your gamertag so we can play some Left 4 Dead.

Best game since Bioshock.
Spent 83 hours on that game. And now that it’s over, I actually miss it.

Depends on what type of games you like. But for me Fallout 3 was pretty close to perfect.

i’ve heard its awesome, but it seems like waaaaaaaaaaaaay too much playtime is required

If you want to just plow through the main quest it’d probably take like 15 hours. But the side quests are what makes it great.
Besides, it’s not like I spend my time doing anything else.

LOved it personally. It has been a polarizing game for a lot of people but I enjoyed how it played and the story was really good. The combat was a mix of old PoP and Assassin’s Creed
Nice…Assassin’s Creed was surprisingly good.

Swisher would be good. He’s got pop. I would personally like Hideki Matsui though. Would you walk Chipper to get to Matsui? We can use a veteran like Matsui more than another young bat. We got too many young bats.
also LH

I'm a big Swisher fan
Good OBP, will hit for some power, and plays a good corner outfield.
More importantly, this is what his girlfriend looks like:


She looks solid in the bottom pic. In the top pic, it looks like she is crosseyed.
"He's getting better, but he's not there yet ..."
- Bobby Cox (talking about Boyer)
Haha
She does look kinda cross-eyed. The magic of an angle shot + photoshop help for the bottom one.
i changed my mind he has a great OBP which is more important then average

Get Nady
If I had to choose between Nady and Swisher, I would take Nady. He has more pop then Swisher and is younger and is not a free agent anytime soon. Nady does not solve our outfield problems and as a cleanup hitter but he would def. be an upgrade in LF. But like every rumor, this is just speculation.
by AlRoBraves95 on Dec 28, 2008 2:06 PM EST up reply actions
Again really?
More pop? Nady has only 1 more HR in 58 more AB’s than Swisher better average yes but also his first season with this type of production as opposed to Swisher who had good power numbers in a down hitting year.
this post has clealy steered away from the intended point…. if we were to give awards for best avatar this guy clearly wins… its amazing… slightly inappropriate but that what makes it great
"We win today, that's two in a row... if we win tomorrow, that's called a winning streak. It has happened before..."
