Chino's packing!  Any guesses as to what is floating around in that Fupa?
(Thanks to Joe Lucia.)

Well, it looks like I won't be getting any work done today.

Escobar out to improve on and off field

Looks like everyone's favorite enigma will be flying solo for interviews come midseason.

"While speaking about his desire to finally learn English this year, he added that he's always wanted to be a public person -- one who can not just communicate with an English-speaking media, but also get to a point where he can appear in English commercials that can maybe help him gain endorsements and more face time.

Since arriving in the Majors in 2007, though, that exposure hasn't really been there. In order to try to bridge the gap, Escobar said he's been doing his best to watch as much English TV as possible and has been constantly listening to CDs that teach him the language."

Any guesses on Yunel's favorite TV show? Jersey Shore or maybe This Old House?

Picture

I'm sorry, but I just had to. I guess this is what I do when I have absolutely nothing to do in class.

We don't get many chances to build a snowman here in GA, so naturally this happened.

Pat Neshek receives one of the worst fan letters of all-time. This one needed editing for spelling, grammar, capitalization, courtesy, common-sense, idiocy, syntax...well, there's just not much to say. (HT: Big League Stew)

Strellis_389987l

Man attacks TVs in Lilburn Walmart after learning, albeit a tad late, that the Atlanta Braves have traded long time second baseman Kelly Johnson.

"Just after noon Wednesday, Westley Strellis, 23, of Lawrenceville, walked into the Walmart on Lawrenceville Highway in Lilburn.

After grabbing a metal baseball bat from the sporting goods section, he walked to the electronics department and destroyed the TVs on display.

He was arrested not long after. Witnesses say he was heard yelling the name 'Prado! Prado! while being taken into custody."

Ok, maybe the Johnson part I made up.

My boy LV Ware sent me this picture of the Braves clubhouse with all the equipment packed up and ready to head to Orlando. Us fans aren't the only ones ready for Spring Training to start, the players can't wait.

Schafer3

I said I would put this up when i completed it, so here it is. Those are autographed manufactured patches, and I received the "R" card as a Christmas present. One month of obsessive ebay searching later, my quest is complete. As I said in another post, I'm hoping for a nice rebound and many years in a Braves uniform to come for Jordan Schafer.
