PrintI'm in the mood for a poll, and I've had this one in mind for several days. The idea is pretty simple, who do you think will play more games in 2010, Chipper Jones or Peter Moylan? So far they are neck-and-neck, each having played in four games.

I think we’ll get 135-140 games from Chipper this year. Hopefully, we won’t need to get more than 80 from Moylan
He just injured himself
testing out another injury. I don’t like his chances to reach 135. He’s averaged 125 the last 5 years while playing through a lot of pain, maybe it’s my frustration and pessimism, but you just can’t count on him to be out there 85% of the time this year on that severely broken down body. Prove me wrong Chipper, I’d love you to.
Did Chipper get hurt again last night?
I wasn’t watching when he was taken out, but I figured it was because he still isn’t 100% and the game was already over. Didn’t see anything about it on the ESPN recap of the game.
Or did I just misunderstand what you were saying?
He hurt himself before the game and played through it. He injured his back while testing out his oblique.
That was back spasms, not a real injury. Everybody has back spasms, they go away.

Well, in all fairness it is an injury, just not a serious one. But you can’t ignore that lingering back pain would have an adverse effect on performance. It’s the ease at which he gets hurt that is troublesome, and the worry of us all, not the definition of the latest health concern.
Lingering back pain is something I know very well, since I was about 25. I have back spasms almost weekly and really no longer pay that much attention to them.

I don't really think this will even be close...
Peter probably maxes out at around 90 games. Chipper has played at least 109 games every year since 1995. Unless Chipper has a year-ender (shudder), there’s no way Peter can pass him.

The smart ass in me wanted to vote Moylan….but I’m gonna venture out onto the limb and say that Chipper will play more games. Bobby can’t be THAT sadistic towards Peter. :P

There’s a good chance that Moylan — after being overworked last year — will pitch in fewer games than Chipper misses. The answer has to be Chipper. I’m not sure why anybody would vote for Moylan. If you think Chipper will play fewer games than Moylan, then you’ve pretty much given up all hope on the 2010 season after a whopping 7 games.
I think it’s more of a joke about Chipper’s inability to stay in the lineup and Peter’s inability to stay in the bullpen….at least I hope it is.

That picture was probably taken the last time he played a full season. He looks young enough. lol

Chipper played a full season last year.
He just sucked in the 2nd half.

Moylan 127
Chip 123
Moylan’s arm literally falls off the socket Sunday November 14, 2010 at 7:13 PM EST and is forced to have reattachment surgery with Dr. James Andrews that Tuesday in a procedure that will forever be known as Peter Moylan surgery.
Chipper, in a show of team spirit drives Moylan to the hospital that day and suffers a significant paper cut injury while flipping through a Highlights magazine in the Family Waiting Area, forcing him to retire the following week.
