Around SBN: Are The Orioles Bad Or Unlucky With Their Young Pitching?

Atlanta Braves Fan Confidence Poll

If it's Monday, then it's the Atlanta Braves fan confidence poll. As always, 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?

Still a 9.

Last week was but a blip in the road. Onward and upward!

I'm down to 7 this week

Getting swept by the Rockies was embarrassing, especially blowing the last game. If the Phillies somehow had not majorly choked and been swept in 4 games by the Astros, standings right now would be reversed.

Still a 10

After such a sucky week, we are still 2 games up on the Phillies. Also, the talent we have in the minor leagues continues to produce.

Still at 8

Still in 1st place, still coming from behind, still loaded in the minors, still have a better schedule than the Phils, still playing for Bobby. If we could get rid of a bad contract or two (McLouth especially) I could go higher.

Heyward is pretty good

im going with a 7 this week....

as mentioned above… we should had won that game at Coors…. so my confidence is a lil shaken right now…lets see if we can handle the mutts this week….

Hell, I'm going 10

We walk-off better than any team in the Stiright now. Screw the Colorado series, it’s in the past, no need to complain about it. Games like that make a team stronger in the end. Plus, it was probably just the baseball gods evening things out due to our walkoff GS vs the Reds earlier this year.

Still in first place, still the 2nd best record in the NL, still have a great farm system, still have a great bullpen, and most importantly, we still have Tim fucking Hudson.

Kawakami - 1, Halladay - 0

I’m going to hang at a 9 again. The Braves haven’t been playing well, but they still manage to win.

They’ll right the ship soon and they all be clicking. Prado and Infante continue to hit at the top, so that’s a good sign.

Just need the other starters to start pitching like Hudson to give the bullpen a break.

it was down to a seven after the Rockies sweep, but our run diff is still good for second in the NL, thanks to the Phils we’re only 1.5 back of the overall number one in the NL. So we’re doing pretty well.

I’ve been steady at 8 for a while. 9 = Make Playoffs. 10 = Win the W.S. I cannot give a team a perfect ranking if they are not perfect; I think winning the W.S. is the only “perfect” scenario that warrants anything higher than a 9.

Dropped down to it because Of the Rock’s comeback.and Hanson’s latest effort……I think they should have given Lowe the day off yesterday and allowed Minor the start…

it just felt right and the chance to go to the postseason is hard to pass up. I’ve always respected their orginization… and Bobby…I’m excited. I’m looking forward to it...Derrek Lee (at press conference sayiing he had been traded to the Braves)

7, which is a 9 on my scale. It would go back to 8 if I knew Derek Lowe would ever be worth a damn again.

Why are you so high on this team?

The base paths belonged to me, the runner. The rules gave me the right. I always went into a bag full speed, feet first. I had sharp spikes on my shoes. If the baseman stood where he had no business to be and got hurt, that was his fault. -Ty Cobb

8 for me
