AUTUmike 79 Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 Glad Lowe is gone. Hurts to eat $10 million but at least we've cut our losses. So out of Hudson, Jurjens, Minor, Medlen, Hanson, and Beachy, who would you guys leave out of the rotation. For me it'd have to be Minor--although it hurts to remove the only lefty...

AUTUmike 79 Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 God I can't wait for baseball season to start Agreed. After the bowl games we have the longest 2.5 months of the year to endure. I'm hoping an improved Auburn basketball team will help make it manageable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

au21tigers 0 Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 The wife of Braves trainer Jeff Porter died Saturday afternoon when the sport utility vehicle she was riding in was struck by a Georgia State Patrol cruiser in downtown Atlanta. Porter, his wife, Kathy, and 19-year-old son David were on their way to the Chick-fil-A Bowl when their Ford Expedition was hit by the GSP vehicle at Capitol Avenue and Memorial Drive around 4:40 p.m. The Fulton County Medical Examiner’s office confirmed to the AJC that Kathy Porter, 54, of Loganville died in the crash. Her husband and son were injured. A fourth passenger in the vehicle, Courtney Ann Williams, 18, of Grayson, was also injured.Their conditions were not immediately available.

Jonesy 1 Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 The Braves had a good team last year. They don't need to add much if anything right now. They can add through the deadline for a better return. Also, Liberty Media has been a great ownership group. They keep their hands out of the operations and they allow the Braves to spend what they make. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUTUmike 79 Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 Yeah we had a good team despite off years by a few guys. One thing to note, I heard yesterday that Washington is the leading candidate to land Prince Fielder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing to note, I heard yesterday that Washington is the leading candidate to land Prince Fielder. I think Only or Gammons said today that the nationals executive he talked to didn't consider Fielder a priority. And apparently that's because there's sorta a clog there. Moore and LaRoche are first basemen and apparently Zimmerman will have to move to 1st in a few years. A long contract would interfere with that. If it weren't for the Zimmerman thing, I could see it working out. But they've sank a lot of money into him so it's hard to see them investing long term to where he project to end up.

This all true,but every NL East team has improved their roster this off season,with mabey the Phils as the only exception. I think we need another high OPS guy for the outfield,I like Martin but we need some more pop in the lineup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we do too, but I'm not so certain that we need it before the trade deadline talks start to heat up. I think we can get more out of the guys we're willing to trade then versus now.

Well at least that will give the Braves a couple of wins. We usually rock him pretty good. We even caused his latest meltdown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I believe a few years before it was after being pounded by the Braves that Zambrano punched Michael Barrett. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
