…..because as soon as Rhodes or some other lefty comes in, that’s it.
Rhodes was instrumental in setting up that epic rally the Braves had back in May.

If Glaus doesn’t turn it around, we might could still get him. He’d have to clear waivers, though…
Actually, I think there was something on MLBTR (or some other trade rumor site), specifically about LaRoche still having a high chance of being traded after the deadline.

consider defense and power as well

of the players we could realistically get
(i.e. not jeter, jose reyes)
he’s near the top of the list
and 2.5 MM is a bargain
Are you sure about that? I am pretty sure it was something like .265 at the time of the trade.

That trade is either going to have no impact or a huge positive impact. How could you not like a trade that has those results as the only possible outcomes?
"Chase Utley can't polish Martin's shoes right now" Joe Simpson
what's most likely is that neither contribute more than .5 WAR
then Tim Collins becomes a useful reliever
It’s not disastrous by any means, but it still was a net move in the wrong direction.
You’re right that it doesn’t matter a whole lot, but it is disconcerting that Wren thinks it improves our team
It’s most likely that a guy who has never pitched in the majors before becomes a useful reliever, but not that a guy who has already had success in the majors makes a large impact in a position of need for us? I have to say I definitely disagree.
"Chase Utley can't polish Martin's shoes right now" Joe Simpson
If Ankiel > Blanco...
and we know Farns > Chavez, that makes us better RIGHT NOW, and we’re going for it RIGHT NOW. Tim Collins may or may not become a MLB player, but what’s definite is that deal improved THIS YEAR’s team.
Yes and yes.
Tim Collins is a minor league reliever….odds of him even making it to the majors aren’t favorable.

he’s been lights out at every level
that’d be like trading minor then saying it was unlikely he ever made it to the majors

I disagree. He could very easily struggle in AAA. He could injure himself, due to his screwy mechanics. Any number of things could happen.

Great AB
Regardless of the end result.
[Mets] GM Omar Minaya confirmed to Andy Martino of the New York Daily News that the Mets aren't going to fire any coaches today. July 26, 2010.
Fuck.
That was close. Great battle.
when is Frank Wren going to wake his Ass up and see the Braves needs a Batter? This game Against Washington is Showing the team is not hitting. Get some help are philadelphia is going bnack to First? If you can’t see this maybe john scherhous should replace your stupid ass.

Dang... that was just bad luck.

This road trip has been a horrible combination of awful luck, bad hitting with RISP, and bad defense in important spots. I can’t wait to be back in Atlanta.

autosingle…lets goooooo
We have traded away great players for less than nothing and let Texierra walk away, and much much more so pray that Hayward is sent from God and that his energy can ignite the veterans and cause the younger players to hustle more and play winning baseball...
Win or lose
That was awesome
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.

Oh yeah. This lineup still has one. His name is Jason Heyward. All he does is make things happen.

wow not good at all
hope the Nats can beat the Phils
we are home for 14 of the next 17, home cooking should help us out though

terrible performance
Hockey is my oxygen, football is my food, and baseball is my water. I'd say basketball is my shelter, but I'd rather not lie.
Poor Tommy - he didn't deserve this LOSS (our 3rd series in a row)

Yep. It will. Gotta step up somehow.

And that’s why I don’t think the Braves or Phillies are a big threat to win the World Series. Teams like the Yankees that play well on the road are the kinds of teams that will most likely win the WS.

Not if we have home field advantage through the whole postseason!!

Yankees and Rays are excellent on the road. They are also probably the 2 best teams in baseball.

UGH! freakin defense…sorry A-Gon…you’re a solid SS but this game is on you, even if you hit a homer. why does the defense always fail on tommy….
just beat the mets. i believe in this team.

Yunel and Bautista hit homers again today
What the hell is up with Toronto?
They give their guys livestock steroids or something
It's their park
that is why Alex gad 17 homers by the All-Star break
If Jason Heyward were to hit a home run off of you, you would have to fight the urge to thank him.

I haven’t been this mad at the team all year. What complete horse shit. Two days in a row defense has fucked us in the ass combined with a complete lack of ability to hit the ball with people on base. Fucking hell.

I feel the same.
Frustrating to watch. I am used to the offense sucking at times. But damn the defense. Errors cost us a few games on this trip
Yep
the passed ball (but got to blame that on Wags) in FL
and then the two Tommy Hanson starts
If we somehow wins these 3, we’ll all be here saying how good this team is to win 3 road series in a row
by LEastCoastBears on Aug 1, 2010 4:07 PM EDT up reply actions
Definitely a frustrating road trip
on the bright side, we still have a lead in the NL East
a solid homestand (which means better than that last one) will make us all feel that much better in a hurry
Braves offense really sucking lately
yesterday, only RBI came from a walk and today from HR.
LOB = Braves
RISP fail = Braves
WELCOME TO THE SHOOOOOOOOW.
i love jason but man i’m sick of “This Town”

This team is FUCKING PATHETIC!!!
Seems to me like we can’t catch a break anywhere. The Reds catch one break, and it happens to be with a runner on third. Us… no way… all we know how to do is strand an ass-ton of runners all day long. Sorry… that’s my rant. This team makes me sick.
believe in this team.

Absolutely right
and shitty defense has been the cause of a few losses. Can’t let that happen when you aren’t hitting for shit
5/33 with RISP this series. Let's improve this back at the TED please.

Man, do the debbie downers come out of the wood works or what? Seriously people, we are still in first place and have 14 out of the next 17 games at home. This stuff happens. I still believe in this team and so should you. They can’t win them all!
This.
Some times you just have to let out your frustrations. But we are still in first and its not over till its over and today wasn’t the end
Agreed.
I just needed to let it out. Every time we lose games like this, it makes me sick to my stomach. We’re better than this. Good things need to start happening again.
by Ace_of_Braves on Aug 1, 2010 4:16 PM EDT up reply actions
And they will
Lest we forget the month of April when the sky was falling! Then May and June rolled around and we couldn’t lose a series! Baseball is cyclical and if this is the worst the Braves are gonna do, then I can’t wait for the stretch run!
As long as there’s the internet, there will be trolls
