DOB: Troy Glaus will be...

the Braves' 11th different Opening Day starting 1B in the last 12 years. Good lord.

Freddie Freeman, you better tear it up in Atlanta for a long, long time.

Can anyone run down the list?...

I’d have thought LaRoche had at least 2-3 years there. Was he the only one?

I got...

09-Kotchman
08-Tex
07-Wilson or Thorman
06-LaRoche
then no clue

Ken Caminiti might be in there some where, maybe Klesko.

Wow, thanks.

that’s some serious bad for most of the decade, especially the first half of it. It would be nice if Freeman could lock that down next decade.

who the hell is Brogna?

Wasn’t 2001 the year we had a crazy offense and won 103 games or so? I definately dont remember him.

Rico.

He had a very nondescript career playing mostly in the NL East (first NY, then PHI, then us.) And ’03 was the ridiculous year Bob Fick went off…well, for him, anyway.

Overheard in press box, from local reporter: 'If this Moore kid was any good, they'd be up 31-0 right now.'
