Didn't hear that. So we have an All-Star who was fighting for a batting title the previous year and we will just delegate him to a utility role. Thats a good way to have a short managerial career.

we will prolly be able to re-sign him Don't hold your breath on that. Braves paying a second baseman for more then $12 million a year. Not sure they will have that kind of money after next year. Don't get me wrong I think it is a good trade. I just don't see the Bravos signing him after this coming year. I don't know, Chipper's payroll will like be cleared as well as Lowe's by the end of next year. If Uggla contributes like he has the past few years, the Braves might throw a little extra his way to keep him.

I'm glad Farnsworth is gone. He is completely unreliable.

On some levels I agree, but I witnessed the decline of this team after he got injured.

Those Japanese must not get Peachtree TV over there.

I hate to say it, but it was fun while it lasted.

No question about it, Not only are we missing Chipper's bat but it seems the heart is gone from this team now.

Is 1st base cursed? Derek Lee hasn't hit squat since he came over. He's had more double plays than he's had hits.

I'm worried too, its gonna be make or break with the two Philis series.

I missed it, how long did KK last?

I hope our long relievers got plenty of rest last night.

Thanks Fish Nothing like a little Mets at home to get your hitting back on track!

WOOOOWW, for a team that hit zero grand slams last year they are doing pretty good with them this year! :happydance:

J-Hey is on fire right now like I have never seen before!

Not to be forgotten in this great comeback is the incredible work the bullpen did again to minimize Lowe's damage.

Oh Well, Here we go again. Great start Lowe!!! :banghead:

Thx styx We survived a first half slump, hopefully we can survive this one too.

Sounds like I picked a good night to not watch the game.

Good read, this is going to be interesting.

Having surgery this time a year, they might as well keep him out for the full 18 months.

Yeah, that would be nice. I'd like to not have to worry about the division coming down to the series with the Philis, even though that would be great baseball.

How do you get swept at home in a four game series if you are the Philis? At least the Brave got beat at Coors Field.

Agreed JS, but I'm just counting my lucky stars we are not a 1/2 game back right now.

Are you watching mlb tv again? Who's pitching for the Phils?

Whats up with the Derek Lowe bashing? I know he hasn't lived up to the $15 Mil contract but he only gave up 3 runs at Coors field in 6 innings.
