I don't know anything about DirecTV, but
you may be able to find a link on the net, since this game is being televised. Good luck.

No kidding
They are 1st in several categories.

Let's just say.. I have the POWAH
It’s gonna be SidGlaus … Hope it doesn’t look like bandwagon jumping on.. Because I have backed Troy and his signing since day 1.. Lol and to think the guys in my fantasy league were laughing at me when I took him as my first baseman lol..
by SidKotchman on Jun 14, 2010 7:15 PM EDT via mobile up reply actions
I was one of the few that was backing him also.
I watched him play in St and knew he had the ability to be a great hitter, and play some good D at first.
Chipper: "It has never been about money for me, and it never will be about money. It has always been about winning, comfort and playing for Bobby Cox."
His bat has been great
But seriously his defense at first has been awesome.. Ink him for 2 more years.. Freemans not ready IMHO.

Chipper: "It has never been about money for me, and it never will be about money. It has always been about winning, comfort and playing for Bobby Cox."
any idea what kind of limitations JJ will have tonight?
have to figure he’s on a pitch count at the very least
I just saw one of the biggest men I've ever seen
sitting in the stand behind the batters. He was Huge. Good shot camera man .
Chipper: "It has never been about money for me, and it never will be about money. It has always been about winning, comfort and playing for Bobby Cox."
2 k's for JJ in the 1st
Chipper: "It has never been about money for me, and it never will be about money. It has always been about winning, comfort and playing for Bobby Cox."
it seems safe to say that the only real "prospects" in Gwinnett
are Schafer and Freeman, as far as position players go
Yeah.. Take 3rd baseball for example.. Chipper has to be Out.. Omar out.. Conrad out.. Until we call up a position player and then still it would probably be journeyman Joe thurston.. Who isn’t exactly a prospect anymore lol

So it was interesting to see this..
Ned Yost tells USA Today’s Scott Boeck that in spite of Alex Gordon’s success at Triple-A, Gordon won’t be called back up to the majors until Kansas City can find an everyday space for him.
Anyone wanna swap resop for him?
by SidKotchman on Jun 14, 2010 7:48 PM EDT via mobile reply actions
How's JJ looking?
And any thoughts on what we should do when he makes it back into the rotation? I don’t think it would be smart to move Medlen with the way he has been pitching, maybe KK into the pen?

sun got in Schafer’s eyes and he missed an out. the sun is brutal right now on the field.

If we have to move a SP to the pen.
I would send KK,. Maybe he would have better luck pitching out of the pen.
Chipper: "It has never been about money for me, and it never will be about money. It has always been about winning, comfort and playing for Bobby Cox."
That’s what I was thinking, but then I hear the argument about his salary? I say who cares how much we are paying him if he isn’t putting up W’s …

Bobby will move Meds tho, but I agree. it’s getting ridiculous. he’ll be 0-9 soon

What's even more nauseating
This may sound wrong in a way.. But the 2 options with kk is the bull pen or leave him in the rotation..braves won’t cut ties with their first asian player until his contract is up.
by SidKotchman on Jun 14, 2010 7:56 PM EDT via mobile up reply actions
it’s really not his fault, tho. it’s just one of those things.
we’re in 1st, in teh closest division in baseball……and one of our STARTING PITCHERS is 0-9
it’s like a jinx-type-thing now. he’ll get a Win, but……jeez

Agreed but championship teams don't
Keep 0-9 pitchers in their rotations.. Just bad luck.. I like him.. And it sucks.. Just think it’s a big difference if he was 3-6.. We’d be what 4.5 games ahead of the mets?? Which he could be 5-4 with a little luck.. Just hasn’t gotten anyyyyy

i still grade it a B, for what it was. could have been worse. he missed a few, and was getting a little tired, but the stuff is coming back

So is 12 am June 15th or 12 am June 16th
D-day for resop?

What do you think is going to happen with him?
I keep hearing trade.
Chipper: "It has never been about money for me, and it never will be about money. It has always been about winning, comfort and playing for Bobby Cox."
Wondering if kc would take resop
For alex Gordon.. He’s still young and has potential.. But yost said despite his triple a performance he won’t be recalled this season.. His 2010 MLB line is deceiving with only 30
at bats..and we all know how kc covets braves prospects..
by SidKotchman on Jun 14, 2010 8:09 PM EDT via mobile up reply actions
That and maybe the attitude in kc is so
Depressing that Gordon in a new home he could improve big time
by SidKotchman on Jun 14, 2010 8:12 PM EDT via mobile up reply actions
Interesting
I haven’t thought of Gordon. I think it would be a good option, if KC would do it.
Chipper: "It has never been about money for me, and it never will be about money. It has always been about winning, comfort and playing for Bobby Cox."
Resop could more than likely jump right in
To the rotation at kc..
by SidKotchman on Jun 14, 2010 8:16 PM EDT via mobile up reply actions
You know he would.
Chipper: "It has never been about money for me, and it never will be about money. It has always been about winning, comfort and playing for Bobby Cox."
Also.. I think Gordon MLB career is deceiving
I mean he has been playing for kc.. They don’t have a prado, heyward, chipper, glaus, mcann lineup that Gordon could have been sandwiched into that alone I think would help him out tremendously and you would see great numbers out of him.. Jmho.
by SidKotchman on Jun 14, 2010 8:23 PM EDT via mobile up reply actions
What About...
David DeJesus? Think the Braves have any interest in possibly trying to get him in a deal either now or before the deadline? He is a good hitting CF. Any thoughts?
"It said 'Bear Left,' so they turned around and went home...." - John Smoltz
I feel he has some naturely good talent.
I don’t see him becoming a superstar center fielder, but he would definitely be a better option than the Atl version of Nate.
Chipper: "It has never been about money for me, and it never will be about money. It has always been about winning, comfort and playing for Bobby Cox."
his opt out date is tomorrow
So, I would think the Braves have to call him up before midnight tonight.

I don't understand MLB transactions well enough
to be able to answer that question. Option counts (read: $$$) will probably play a role in the decision. If it were based solely on performance, I would say Chavez or Martinez.

I was supper suprised Chavez made the team
after his horrible ST.

He pitched alot of innings with the pirates
Last year and had a pretty low era.. 2 something.. He’s really just not been that on this year.
by SidKotchman on Jun 14, 2010 8:25 PM EDT via mobile up reply actions
Yeah,
I have been genuinely surprised that he has pitched as well as he has given his awful Spring. I’m sure the good numbers with the Pirates is what gave him the edge over Proctor. I thought for sure Proctor would make the team coming out of ST. I was wrong.

to the guy
who said the verducci effect was arbitrary based on the fact that JJ injured his leg. – wasn’t JJ putting up worse stats before that injury? wasnt there shoulder inflammation? i mean why keep meds in the rotation and even risk that?
In other news. Texas declined offer to join
The pac-10.. Good choice.. Now I wonder if Mike slive has something up his sleeve in bham especially with his recent visit to OK and Texas a&m..

may join the SEC. That put my hubby’s alumni against my alumni, not good for our marriage :)

I would welcome Texas a&m alot of history
There for them and Alabama..I would also encourage one or both of the following.. Asking auburn to leave the sec under a bylaw that states students & fans should restrain themselves from sexual advances onto livestock or face expulsion from the conference.. We all know the have skated around this particular rule.. Also asking Tennessee to just rocky top on outta here.. God how I hate that song…
by SidKotchman on Jun 14, 2010 8:52 PM EDT via mobile up reply actions
I'm all for Auburn and TN to get the boot out of the SEC, not that it will ever happen.
I’m a Ga girl but live in Tn now. I get So sick of All the orange especially on game day. Auburn because my ex graduated from their Vet school. Alabama is OK, simply because my mom attended college there.
I agree I’d take A&M over most of the other colleges I’ve heard mentioned about joining the SEC.
Chipper: "It has never been about money for me, and it never will be about money. It has always been about winning, comfort and playing for Bobby Cox."
I would also take north carolina
From the acc.. Good basketball..and a growing football team.. The duke rivalry might be too strong for them to jolt from the acc though.. Heck take duke too.. Add a&m and southern miss to west .. Duke and nc to east.. Just fantasizing..
by SidKotchman on Jun 14, 2010 9:17 PM EDT via mobile up reply actions
as much as i hate ‘em, i wouldn’t have minded clemson joining the east if a&m had joined the west. our history with the tigers is a lot richer than most of the teams in our conference, and the proximity to athens makes the rivalry that much more intense.

That should be fun
If Liriano made us look bad, just wait and see what Price can do.

This upcoming series should be exciting.
1st place teams playing against each other. We should see some close games. I just hope we end up on the winning side of Alll of them:)

I would probably freak out if someone broke Hammer’s record. (yeah, yeah, Barry Bonds broke it but he doesn’t count, there’s too much controversy with the steroids issue) i want that record to stand.

says JJ was ‘chased’. is that true? or did he just get to a pc limit?
"Batting second and playing shortstop-he's Cuban. Yeah, his name's Pablo...no, eh, Yunel Escobar, sorry"
Heyward came and chased him around the field and JJ got so freaked he passed out

"Batting second and playing shortstop-he's Cuban. Yeah, his name's Pablo...no, eh, Yunel Escobar, sorry"
can you give me the link to the article or whatever about him being “chased”?

Jurrjens chased early, but Hellickson cruises on.
Rehabbing Jair Jurrjens last only 2 2/3 innings against Durham’s Jeremy Hellickson in Gwinnett
"Batting second and playing shortstop-he's Cuban. Yeah, his name's Pablo...no, eh, Yunel Escobar, sorry"
Hmmm….i think he had a pitch count, though

that’s what I thought, which is why I asked
"Batting second and playing shortstop-he's Cuban. Yeah, his name's Pablo...no, eh, Yunel Escobar, sorry"
I’ll see what the AJC says about it

No kk was not chased.. Little shaky 4k’s I believe a couple of walks..but he had a pitch count and you have to remember these words when it comes to an appearance of this nature.. Rehab assignment.

Game tied in the 8th 2-2
Chipper: "It has never been about money for me, and it never will be about money. It has always been about winning, comfort and playing for Bobby Cox."
Remember when all the "experts" picked Seattle to win the West
and how much of a genius their new GM was?
Funny, I don’t hear that much more. Defense is essential to winning, but so is hitting the damn baseball. I think they forgot that.
"(Jason Heyward) is like the Grim Reaper -- You know he's gonna get you, you just never know when or where."
The poor, Ken Griffey-less Mariners….

Remember when all the “experts” picked the Phillies to have the divizion locked up by April 10th?

Haha…happy “We’ve been in 1st for 2 weeks but ESPN still doesn’t give us any recognition” DAY

I have to give MLBN some credit
they have been giving us some loving of late.

Too bad i don’t have MLBN….wish i did

2 new Heywardisms for the night (taken from the Dos Equis commercial)
“If Jason Heyward hit you in the face, you would have to fight the urge to not say thank you.”
“Sharks have a week dedicated to Jason Heyward.”
"(Jason Heyward) is like the Grim Reaper -- You know he's gonna get you, you just never know when or where."
I love the second one
"Batting second and playing shortstop-he's Cuban. Yeah, his name's Pablo...no, eh, Yunel Escobar, sorry"
New sig time?
You got it!

If the Padres lose tonight
we’re tied for the best record in the NL.
"Sharks have a week dedicated to Jason Heyward."
Padres have been doing really well this season. So have we, but the Padres are more of a surprise

Freddie leads of the 8th with a single.
Let’s take the lead this inning.
Chipper: "It has never been about money for me, and it never will be about money. It has always been about winning, comfort and playing for Bobby Cox."
Now hit by pitch
we have our first two on.

I saw him in the front row at one of our home games.
Chipper: "It has never been about money for me, and it never will be about money. It has always been about winning, comfort and playing for Bobby Cox."
Yeah,
Pretty kool. I started to comment on seeing him at the game, but thought I might get mauled by some of the Saban haters!
