Atlanta Braves Fan Confidence Poll

by gondeee on May 8, 2009 9:00 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’ve voted 8 every week, but this time I’m down to 7. The big league team is just worrying me. I know they can turn it around, but they seem to just be losing for little to no reason.

I’m feeling slightly better about the team after sweeping the 2 game series with the Marlins, but I’m staying with 7. I need to see how McCann plays with the glasses and see more from Anderson before I give a higher rating.

7

Would have been an 8, but a point was lost for my nervousness (is that a word? haha) any time a fly ball is hit to left field. If BJones was playing, it would be an 8. He’s got defense. And chill out, btw. I’m not continuously ripping on FUGA for no reason. I hope the bastard proves me wrong. In fact, that’s what I would prefer. But I’ve seen him drop as many fly balls as he has caught so far.

Until McCann comes back and proves he’s feeling better we are not a very good offensive team. Hopefully he will show us he’s the old Mac when he comes back today.

Actually felt like 6.5, but that’s not an option. Main problem for me is:

Start: 5-1
Then go: 1-7
Since: 6-7

Which team is the real Braves? Hard to say. The part of me that wants to go 7 instead of 6 says the “Start” braves are for real, b/c that’s when they had their full lineup in and healthy, which basically hasn’t happened since. But I also think that Vasquez may start regressing to his mean. FIP calcs hate JJ, even though he has been lights out, so hopefully he can keep it up.

If the lineup can score more runs

The Braves will be in good shape. Jurrjens has been the Brave’s best starter so far and I don’t see that changing. Guys like Lowe and Kawakami could also be in store for better outings. Javy and hopefully Reyes can continue putting together solid outings.

Bobby’s current lineup management has me dropping to a 6. I will go back to a 7 when Kelly gets to be a regular again, and FUGA is not hitting cleanup over McCann.
