Washington Nationals at Atlanta Braves, Aug 11, 2009 7:10 PM EDT
Tommy Hanson takes the mound for the Braves against the Nationals ace, Jon Lannan. There were a lot of lineup changes, but in the end it should be Nate McLouth out, Ryan Church in, Kelly Johnson out, Chipper Jones in, with Omar Infante back in the lineup at second.

SportsNite is such a crock of shit. How about pre-gaming it with a show that fans will actually enjoy? …..Beyond their realm of thought.

IMO we have a better shot at the division than at the wildcard. We’re only one game further behind in the division but 3 teams fewer ahead of us.

I'm sorry,
but I think keeping Adam LaRoche out of the lineup is not wise. He is not a platoon first baseman. He is a quality, starting first baseman with good power and he should be playing everyday. I don’t care if the pitcher IS LH.

You may be right. And although we are facing a left handed pitcher, I still kinda wish Kelly was in the lineup. He’s really starting to turn it on.
by pancanbra on Aug 11, 2009 6:46 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
I partially agree.
It’s good to see O back in the lineup, and of course, Marteeen is a hittin’ fool this year. But Kelly is more dangerous, and he actually hits lefties better than righties. Why that never earns a spot from Bobby is beyond me.

Yeah, but now that Omar is back, the other half of the Prado/Infante puzzle is complete. The two of them are a riot. And Prado credits Infante for helping him.

Kelly is great against lefties…at least as far as I can tell. It’s not saying much, but he has more homers against lefties than righties…I think.

Yeah,
a 2-run homer that sparked a wonderful comeback, extra-inning victory and a game winning, 10th inning homer pretty much signifies that he’s BACK, and worthy of a regular spot on this team.

MLB can suck one for their stupid lens rule, so giving them more money is not in my budget. I’m fine with the places that are already available during BP. But I’m sure it’s fun if you’ve got the means.

Lens rule?
you ARE allowed to take pictures and such on the field. I had a digital camera, not sure if that falls under the lens rule.

Wow, ok with the CAPS, man! Sorry if you didn’t think the Cute-guy joke was funny, but couldn’t think of your whole name at the moment. Thought it was, ah, kinda cute myself.
Anyway, I’m aware you’re allowed to take pictures on the field…I’ve taken one or two (thousand) myself. What I’m referencing is the general rule that lenses longer than 5" are banned in every MLB ballpark…and I just got one (300mm) at the end of last season. Been wanting one for years, finally got it, and they come up with that dumbass rule. Talked to a security supervisor friend at the Ted and he says it’s b/c MLB doesn’t want anyone else making money off something they easily could. No other reason for the rule. Some parks enforce it less, some employees police it more than others.
Eh. That’s all I was talking about.
