PrintNew York Mets at Atlanta Braves, May 22, 2008 7:10 PM EDT
It was really nice to see Francoeur break out last night, and for Teixeira to continue his recent hot streak. If both of those guys get going, then the rest of the league better watch out for the Braves. With the way McCann, Chipper, Escobar, and KJ have been hitting, and our recent string of quality starting pitching we should be really hard to beat. Finally!; the team on paper comes alive on the field.
The evil in me is coming out and I want to see us absolutely pound Santana today. I'm not talking just a few runs here and there, I'm talking multiple grand slams and other assorted run scoring. Then in the ninth inning I want whoever is pitching for the Braves to hit the first Mets batter they face square in the middle of the back with a fastball. In the words of Serpentor, "This I Command!"
Remember, no NAHWAL today. Not only do I not have the time for it right now, but I'm also way too superstitious to start it up after we've won four straight without NAHWAL.

Ugh…Serpentor reference? Amazing.
I also concur with: I’m not talking just a few runs here and there, I’m talking multiple grand slams and other assorted run scoring.
If this game went Gondeee's way...
...while Fernando Tatis is watching from the dugout, the Braves will hit around twice in an inning, with Chipper Jones hitting three grand slams, from alternating sides of the plate. The first off Santana, then Jorge Sosa, and perfectly fitting, Scott Schowenweis.
We can dream, right?
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
Knockin' out Santana
Aah, that would be the icing on the cake of this wonderful series. Nothing in baseball is better than seeing the Bravos hand the Mets their arses.
Depends on the WS.
I don’t know, but I thought the last few years of World Series have been kinda blah. All the sweeps, AL domination, teams I’m not interested in, etc… the LCSes have been far more entertaining to me. The last one I enjoyed was 2006, 2001, or 2002, but none of the others.
The Braves knocking out Santana in game 7 of the NLCS would be heavenly, but that would first, require the Mets to actually get into the playoffs, let alone get past the first round.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
Yeah but
If it was the Braves in the WS, it wouldn’t be blah. And it would also be nice to have another WS title to combat the never-ending diatribe from jealous, non-Braves fans that goes something like “Yeah, all those consecutive division titles and only one WS”.
I love that debate
Those people clearly don’t understand the importance of just getting to the post-season alone. Especially in baseball, where only four teams make it in each league, as opposed to the NFL where 1/3 of the league has a shot, or the NBA, where 1/3 of the league isn’t in the playoffs.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
I actually had that arguement with my friend who’s a Mets fan last night. We’ve been having this arguement for the past 7 years, only this time he tried to tell me that we never won a WS during that stretch.
He’s funny.

I thoroughly enjoyed...
...the comment on Deadspin after our double-header sweep, along with the Yankees getting crushed by the O’s on Tuesday:
“Unless you’re still basking in the afterglow of that Super Bowl victory, its a very bleak picture in New York right now; steel-reinforced shitstorm umbrellas are being feverishly mass produced there as we speak.”
How sweet it is.

On a slightly broader spectrum
I just like the fact that we’re beating down on the Mets, after they so thoroughly destroyed the Yankees over the weekend. It’s like superiority, through association, or something like that.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
Agreed
I enjoy it when any NL team beats any AL team (especially when we then beat the NL team). I’m personally tired of the “AL dominance” or at least all the talk I get from the YanSox fans. I’ve just never been a fan of the DH.
Anybody
have hypotheses as to why there has been a so-called AL domination? My only guess is because AL teams spend more money…Boston & NY spending far and above most other teams…but that doesn’t hold water when it comes to the CWS or some of the other smaller payroll teams.
You would think
That NL teams would have an advantage playing in NL parks, because AL teams have to eliminate a bat from their lineup, and put in, in lots of cases, an inexperienced pitcher to swing for themselves.
On the flipside, one might think the NL has an advantage as well at AL parks, by not having their pitcher have to hit for themselves. Sure they don’t always have a DH-type player to DH, but in most cases, they have a utility guy or a pinch-hitter who certainly has a better average than the typical pitcher.
So why the AL fares so decently doesn’t quite ring up for me. Intimidation, media-spin, who knows. A lot of people like to say unfamiliarity with certain ballparks. All I know is that for a few weeks a season, I genuinely put aside my dislike for certain teams, and root for the NL squads. Except the Yankees, but only when they’re playing the Mets. I can handle six more losses for the NL, so long as they’re the Mets.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
CWS has the 5th highest payroll in baseball at over $120 million.
PS…according to that site it has us over $100 million. Is that true? I know Mike Hampton’s salary is an albatross, but I thought we were projecting it to be around $85 million.
by Smoltz's Beard on May 22, 2008 11:05 AM EDT up reply actions
Dear Pujols
I remember seeing an old salary chart that had New York and Boston at #1 and #2, but Atlanta with Uncle Ted running the show at a distant #3. And those were the only teams to crack the $100 million mark.
This is like looking at gas prices increase. Even the Marlins! They can’t make the joke anymore that Chan Ho Park made more than the entire Marlins squad!
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
+1
I kinda thought “The Curse” and all that was a bit interesting and that it was fun seeing the Bosox win in ‘04, though. Little did I know that the media floodgates would be opened so wide that all we would ever see/hear about in the mainstream is the “YanSox”. I wonder how many fairweather fans the Sox gained that year?
True
I did enjoy the comeback the BoSox had on the Yankees. I’ve always despised the Yanks, I just didn’t realize the BoSox were going to become the Yankees.
Jug, I’ve heard any argument that the AL teams have an advantage by having a DH in interleague play. I think they reasoning is that NL teams don’t carry that kind of a bat, and when NL teams play at an AL stadium they’re disadvantaged by putting in a Greg Norman type player to DH. I don’t guess the AL teams are really disadvantaged when they come to NL stadiums and have to bat the pitcher (even though some NL teams have some decent hitting pitchers.) Not to mention, the AL team still has the DH as a pinch hitter.
I hear both responses
...but I still find it difficult to believe the DH is the reason the Rockies and Cardinals got swept. In my mind, I would say on average the NL has had and does have better pitching than the AL. I would also say the AL has on average, better hitting than the NL. So, this to me would favor the NL, since better pitching should beat better hitting. But, that doesn’t seem to be the case in reality.
Unfamiliarity of ballparks goes both ways, so I don’t think it can explain much.
Could it just be, that recently the AL has attracted more talent than the NL and actually is better? It honestly doesn’t make sense.
Logic vs. Reality
Logic – we’re trying to discuss it, and logically, I believe the NL should be better.
Reality – the AL has beaten the NL 8 out of 11 years of Interleague, including the last four consecutive years.
Stats and logic aside, I believe there’s a mental aspect. The media heavily favors the AL, namely because of the Red Sox and Yankees, who are respectively 3rd and 1st in all-time Interleague win pct. I have to wonder if this kinda praise that makes them believe their own hype, and more importantly, make their opponents think about it too, while they’re losing.
The saddest thing is that the Braves, with their .525 Interleague record is 2nd best (T-Cardinals), only to the Florida Marlins (.565). We’re clearly holding our weight, despite poor interleague showings the last two years.

No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
correction...
Boston is 5th in the AL, all-time interleague win pct. Oakland is 2, Minnesota/Seattle T-3rd.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
I just fail to see how the NL is disadvantaged by having a utility guy get 4-5 ABs instead of a pitcher. I think what bites NL squads in interleague, is when they try to tinker around with the lineup because they have a DH. If I were a manager, and I had a lineup that seemed to work well enough 1-8, I’d just make a DH 9th, and hope that they have a better chance of getting on base, and creating in essence, a bonus base-runner for them to knock in. Or maybe I’m just being naive?
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
I also
was a Boston “fan” for a couple days just to see them come back on the Yankees and to see the Yankees choke. Little did I realize they would then become the YankSox! Of course, that series was more or less symbolic, because Boston’s payroll had been climbing and was already quite high. I will say this, however many bandwagon fans Boston got that year is fine by me, because that series was good for baseball. Anything that gets people interested trickles down and is in some part good for all teams. As a result, most coverage now features Yankees and Red Sox, because thats what a major percentage of baseball fans want to see. So, I guess what I’m saying, is that part of me gets irked about bandwagon fans, Yankees and Red Sox fans in general, but part of me also realizes that its better to have them as fans than not. Its like a Red Sox fan friend of mine always says in response to bandwagon Sox fans, for every shirt or hat we sell them that helps us re-sign Manny/Schilling/Wakefield/whoever.
My greatest fear is the Cubs winning the WS
I imagine a similar effect to what we saw after the BoSox won in 2004. And there are Cubs fans everywhere. I, for one, hope that the Cubs fall on their face this year or else we have a New Boston in Illinois. Outrageous payroll, historical curse, longest dry-spell in baseball, and a strong fan base that once they taste victory will be as obnoxious as ever and will extend to the grandchildren of anyone who once rooted for the Cubs.
by Euruproktos on May 22, 2008 11:04 AM EDT up reply actions
I don't know
I don’t want the Cubs to win, because the Braves are going to. BUT…
...if Pujols doesn’t will it, and the Braves are eliminated, I would have no problem with a Cubs WS. For the same reasons as I said about Boston, it would be good to get some casual Cubs fans back into it and recruit more people who otherwise wouldn’t watch baseball. Whats good for baseball is ultimately good for the Braves.
I also think that the Cubs fanbase is sufficiently large enough that it could detract from some of the Boston & NY coverage and it would be a refreshing change to see a new team for a year or two.
But, I see all your points, and Cubs fans are possibly more obnoxious than Red Sox fans and it could mean the end of the world.
“But, I see all your points, and Cubs fans are possibly more obnoxious than Red Sox fans and it could mean the end of the world”
I lived in Boston last year, I didn’t think “more obnoxious” was possible. Though, I must admit I did wear a BoSox hat to a Yankees-Baltimore game . . . just to spite them. And yes, I did have ice thrown on me, even by old ladies. They keep it classy in the Bronx.
I did.
Kinda. I got hit by a car at four in the morning in Bed-Stuy when I lived in Brooklyn. I just wanted some Crown Fried Chicken. If I hadn’t been eating it while I was walking back home I would’ve been further in the crosswalk when he ran the light and would be dead. Therefore….Fried Chicken has saved my life.

Yunel
Is Yuni playing tonight? Or is he going to be out for a little bit with the bruised knee? I haven’t heard anything new.
Not in lineup tonight...
according to ajc.com:
“Escobar took infield and batting practice and could be available to pinch-hit,” manager Bobby Cox said. Escobar was hopeful of returning to the lineup for Friday’s series opener against Arizona.
Another thing...
...I meant to bring this up already, but during last nights game on ESPN they cut to a scene which showed Smoltz warming up in the bullpen. I believe it was around the 7th inning.
What the hell was that? Was that a recording from an earlier time, or was that happening live?
Could you tell if it was inside or outside?
I was near the outside bullpen in between the 6th & 7th and no one was throwing there.
Somebody else (other blog) said it was before the game…
I was watching the TV from halfway across Sweetwater Tavern and the sound wasn’t on. So I did not get a good view.
The more I think about it I want to say it was inside, but I recall see Eddie Perez and what looked like Jorge Campillo walking in the background. So it very well may have before the game, or even days ago.

Yeah, it was the first time since my little brother’s HS graduation 2 years ago that I’d been as well. Not a big fan of their food, but they have some fantastic “handcrafted beers”.

Okay, good
Wasn’t going to criticize them if you still liked them, but I think Sweetwater, and all the other “Great American” restaurants are all kinda mediocre. Food is overpriced and also mediocre, and they serve no purpose but to drink at, honestly. Pujols, I miss Yuengling lager. Can’t get it down here.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
You can get it in AL
I’ll bring a case on TC day…of course, it might not be so good sitting in my car in the hot August sun…
I can't answer that question
But I wonder if that happened at the same time when Castillo slugged around with what would be an infield single. Because on the big-screen at the Ted, instead of seeing instant replay of the immediate play, we just got some random clip of Jair Jurrjens converting a 3-1 putout.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
Also...
...quick quote from Baseball Prospectus about Chipper:
Jones’s career year has even extended into the field. Long known as having a leaden glove at the hot corner, this year Jones actually leads all third basemen in Zone Rating, and despite an error last night has a Fielding Percentage of .956 (above the .950 league average) to go with a Range Factor that is exactly average (2.67). FRAA registers Jones doing strong work at third this year as well, rating him four runs above average, which would be the highest mark of his career. That stands in direct contrast to his early career at the hot corner, when he had a combined -7.5 Simple Fielding Runs from his rookie season in 1995 to 2001 (data for 1999 is not available). Since returning to third from left field, where he played in 2002 and ‘03, he has a combined +10.7 SFR in four seasons.
that error
was crap. There was a bat flying at his freakin’ head! What was he supposed to do? Should have been some technical scoring to prevent an E.
Completely forgot about that until now. That was BS.

Well here in Birm
We don’t actually get PTV, be we have a Braves station that gives us the feed only. No commercials. So, in between innings it just goes silent and we see like the whole stadium. Just now, I watched the cameraguy cleaning the lens. Also, sometimes they don’t get the mics off and you can hear some parts of conversation. I am waiting for some cursing or something funny.
Saw that here in Atl once...
can’t remember what station…
I kinda liked it (did some camera operating in college); was also waiting on that odd amusing event to happen….
Hudson I hope.
Otherwise it’ll be a long game.
if that was russ martin fielding, he woulda thrown anderson out by 10 steps. then fucked a chick in the first row. before anderson was back in the dugout.
Speak of the devil...
I went onto another sports page, and saw the best headline:

And guess who was there? Russell Martin. Amongst other namely Dodgers players.

You should hear it...
...the Mets announcers are talking about how they’ll get Pedro and El Duque back for the second half the season. Like it’s a lock they’ll both pitch 100 innings.
What else do they have to be optomistic about?
Their manager who thinks he’s going to get fired because all the other black coaches in NY do? That the Latin players don’t get along with everybody else? That Ryan Church thinks he’s batman? That we destroyed them the last 3 games?

Runners going with the full count, KJ hits it into short RF, Castillo slides for it, gets it, throws to home from his knees. Throw was well short. Probably could have gotten KJ out at 1st.

I've got to say.
I don’t care if Heap is a lefty, leave him in the 5 spot. He’s a much better hitter than FYF.
Man.
We need to hit one actually out of the park, rather than just hitting it well but making an out.
At least means Chipper gets
to bat next inning, hopefully with someone on.
Is there any way we could convince Bobby to put Kelly in the 9 spot
and bat the pitcher 8th? That would be sweet.
Yikes.

Oh man
Well done, jug. Good feng shui to the arrangement of the victory images. Couldn’t have done it better myself. That just made my evening better. It was great leaving the game. And then I had to fill up to find out that gas jumped twenty cents on the holiday weekend. And then this brought me right back to the victory.
Game was fantastic, as I’m sure you all would agree. The great Santana is 0-2 at the Ted, and one day, I hope that FOX announcers will put a cheesey video montage of him getting dinged up in Atlanta, like they used to do with Brett Favre’s inability to win in Tampa Bay.
Nothing of any interest y’all might not have seen… but the Bat Boy did have his own cheering section oddly enough. Tim Hudson got the mother of all Turner Field standing ovations when he got down the sac bunt, as did Manny Acosta, when he was lifted in the 9th. I’m sure everyone could hear it, but there was a glorious “sweep” chant going throughout the 9th inning, which couldn’t really reach full crescendo because Delgado flew out so quickly.
Feeling great, the game is beautiful. And so are all of you!
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
Hostile Environment
Braves fans,
Have you ever visited Philly, Dodger Stadium, or Shea for a Braves game?
They don’t like it when you stand up and cheer for the Braves.
I have to say we’re not very good at making Turner as hostile for visiting fans (ESPECIALLY Mets fans).
We need to work harder to make sure they know they are NOT welcome at the Ted if they’re wearing that Orange and Blue crap.
We swept them and we have bragging rights. Let’s make the most of it while we can and piss ‘em all right off!
