Atlanta Braves Fan Confidence Poll

by gondeee on May 15, 2009 8:38 AM EDT

If it's Friday, then it's the Atlanta Braves fan confidence poll. This poll and therefore your confidence level should encompasses several areas of the team. These areas include, but are not limited to, the team’s ownership, current management, talent, minor-league system, and general playing ability on the field. The poll will stay open for 48 hours, and then the results will be posted and graphed against the previous weeks.

Poll

On a scale of 1-to-10, with 10 being "100 percent confident," and 1 being "no confidence at all," how confident are you in the Atlanta Braves organization?

I think i said in a Game Thread that if the Braves win all those road series i’d vote a 9, so i’m sticking to my word.

I’m still at a 7. It’s gonna take a lot to get me to an 8 or higher this season. I just don’t trust management and the outfield sucks (hitting wise). One road series doesn’t change that.

Hey, a 7 is still good in my books. The pitching is great and I think this team has a solid nucleus. We are just a few pieces away from being a championship quality team…namely we need one or two batters with pop and get the bullpen to live up to expectations. I really think our bullpen is a lot better than they have been. I still like Carlyle and Bennett.

Of course if we could replace Bobby, TP and McD I would be ecstatic.

this is hilarious

i love seeing the confidence boost and plummet so immediately. I’m guilty as charged.

Still a 7

And that won’t change until we have a winning record at home.

I’m up to an 8 for the first time this year-three straight road series victories over our 3 tough division opponents.

But for bad luck and bad umpiring, we’d have swept the Mets and we’d be 1 game out of first.

7 until we have a replacement level outfield

The longer it goes without Wren doing something about the putrid outfield offense, the harder it is for me to vote any higher than 7. The very nice road trip was encouraging, but I don’t see the Braves keeping up that level of performance over 162 games without making some changes in the lineup.

That is right where I am at.

Pitching – 9
Infield – 6
Outfield – 4

Overall: 7 (not an average)

You’re that down on the infield? I’m liking it right now. Obviously I’d like KJ to be doing better, but all in all I think it’s doing the job.

I moved up to an 8 after that road trip
