Around SBN: 7 Important Questions About The Heat Vs. Celtics Series

Front Office Fortitude..



Been a Braves fan from Valdosta Ga since birth. When is Frank Wren gonna grow a pair and get Chipper some help? They let Bobby Cox leave the game fattening their pockets and not supplying their fans with the best teams possible. They are ready to go to the 2012 season with a rookie short stop and one of the games best players (that just so happens to play SS) has demanded a trade... ******FRANK WREN DO SOMETHING******** Or your going to continue to put pressure on starting pitchers/ bullpen pitchers to go out there and keep teams to 3 runs because the Braves don't have enough offense to compete in a division that is becoming one of baseballs' best. They are going put so much pressure on Heyward to produce that he becomes the next Francoeur.

I assume you’re referring to Hanley Ramirez. There are two reasons he won’t come to Atlanta:
1) he would cost an enormous amount to get, especially coming from a division opponent 2) he acts like a child and doesn’t fit into the Braves philosophy

I’m thinking it takes a lot of fortitude to wait for the market to develop and a good deal to come our way.
I’m also thinking it would be easier if we had an extra $20-30 M in the budget.

Atlanta just does not need to be reactionary. This is a business.

The Phillies have spent big again this offseason, but I truly think they’ve gotten worse. Heck, the Marlins have been wheelin’ and dealin’, and they’ve managed to alienate their best player.

Like Frank Wren has said numerous times, in August the Braves had the fourth best record in baseball. They had a bad month, not a bad season.

by kalesi on Dec 14, 2011 11:36 AM EST up reply actions  

you mean another Mark Texieria deal? Where we mortgage the future for a player and dont resign him? Why not take on a contract that is below market value at 6 years 70mil in Ramirez. They asked him to restructure a deal and take less money.. If the Braves wait til next year and try and get a SS. They are gonna base a salary demand off of the Reyes deal.

I think the question is one of strategy. Some teams go big over the short term seeking instant success. Others play it safe and hope to catch lightening in a bottle. Both strategies have success stories and failures. I guess if there were a certain way to go about it, everyone would do it the same way.

Seriously dude shut up. We have one of the best GM’s in all of baseball. Wren is extremely underrated as a GM, and is doing all he can to strengthen this club. I see on here not only from you, but whiners saying “I’m upset that we didn’t do nothing this week or last week or at the winter meetings”, just shut up. Wren is out there trying to improve this club as best as he can, no reason to rush things just to get something done that doesn’t necessarily improve the 2012 Braves. That is the actual goal is to improve this ballclub. Not just make trades or signings so that Braves fans have something to read during the off-season. If you need something to read, then there are plenty of things out there to read, not only on the internet, but something called books. I give Wren an A+ this off-season. Keep up the great work Wren.

The Braves had one of the best bullpens in baseball last year. They were able to get MAX innings from Venters and Kimbrel. By adding an impact bat, it changes the way an oposing pitching staff has to pitch to middle of the line-up hitters. If you sandwhich a legit threat between McCann, Jones or vice versa. You create RBI potential.. It’s fairly simple people.. At the end of 27 outs. Who ever has scored the most, wins the game. You cant depend on first and second year pitchers to have close to 100 apperances and retain their affectiveness. Why does anyone think that the Braves kept blowing 1-3 run leads in the month of August? The bullpen was over worked. If the Braves scored more runs or added more threats to their offense, they may be able to take some pressure of their pitching staff. They are good but you cant expect them day in and day out to keep every team under 3 runs. Be rational.. Do any of you posting people know this game? or have played it?

Yeah, that’s your two cents…

I don’t know, I’m over being a bad guy. It’s become more fun to let the piranhas eat them anyway.

I wrote a novel, it's about baseball, you should buy it:

I thought the picture of Kent Brockman, with the line he said about placing blame on the viewer, would have made that clear. Guess not. Sorry for the confusion, y’all do a fine job.

Agreed.

It’s the offseason. This is one of the best times to be at TC.

By now, I'm sure the OP is on a ship sailing into /banhammer land

As for the post… I agree with whoever thought this was going to be a positive post and was almost excited to read it. Then I get to the meat of the post and I almost cry… then I do cry… but not with sadness but I tinkle tears of pee down my leg from laughing so hard I almost break my spleen.

thanks for the humor on this Thursday afternoon. Makes the Lowrie fiasco so much more palatable.

In the body of other posts, I am often admittedly high and tend to not want to edit a lot.

Personally...

I think the next time someone posts a thread like this, we should Reverse OGT.

That’s right, make everyone’s posts in that entire thread green instead of the original poster’s.

It’s rough to sit through these games and not have someone that can’t hit a Ball?

I wont argue with half of you folks. The ones that sit with their red suspenders and confederate flag shirts. You probably are sitting holding that can of Blue Ribbon or in the stands getting hammered during games. After traveling from city to city and seeing lifeless fans such as the major of you.. Its truly sad how a fan becomes blind by ignorance. Good luck this season with a rookie SS and empty bleachers. Im sure there will be a ton of seats for an off day viewing with the family. Oh Yeah.Happy Holidays!! Go Braves!!

I don’t reckon I not know what no “city” is. We’s just a kindly simple folk down here in the south.

After one thread, this jack-leg poster (whether or not already banned) is already approaching anti-legend status. A pretty impressive negative accomplishment if you think about it..
