Atlanta Braves II

[Vercingetorix]

I wonder if the umpire actually has to help Fredi fill the lineup card out when he makes a double switch.

Can you imagine a conversation between Eric Gregg and Fredi?

"Hey Fredi, what's your favorite sandwich again?"

"You has bacon?"

 

[underscore]

Fredi surprised a dinner guest one evening when he asked the server to hold the bacon on his triple burger. The dinner guest inquired why no bacon, Fredi? Fredi responded, "Trying to eat healthy..."

 

[TBrown]

Let huddy hit for himself, but that Heyward kid? We gotta get him outta there.

 

[TBrown]

Nothin like a Matt Diaz double play. Waste of space.

 

[underscore]

Cameron Diaz is a better hitter.

Fredi has had Durbin warming up since the fifth inning.

 

[underscore]

Bourn is my hero but I will hate him next year.

I think Fredi started drinking about 3:00 or something. Double switching Heyward out of a game is just lunacy. Forget the offense, he's trying to cover the biggest outfield in MLB with a statue in LF and he just got worse in RF.

FF needed a hug after that snag by Helton.

go vols

 

[TBrown]

Spectacular inning

And in comes The Durbin.

I think I'd actually rather have Constanza on the ML roster than Diaz. And that's saying something.

That was some flaccid hitting right there by the heart of the order.

 

[GAVol]

Looks like the human Gas Can just Took the mound.

 

[underscore]

Durbin comes set to the leadoff hitter, with a look to first, here comes the pitch... sigh

 

[underscore]

The drunks in Coors are gonna start to sober up soon. This could get ugly.

 

[Vercingetorix]

The only way Durbin should come into a tie game before Venters is if Venters has blood pouring out of an open artery.

 

[underscore]

The Durbin, ladies and gentlemen.

Get ready for it.

 

[GAVol]

Since we're *****ing about everything else . . . Tim McClellan is annoying as hell behind the plate.

 

[Weezy]

Is Heyward out because of the slide into the fence or did Frediot just pull a Frediot move?

He's no Enrico Palazzo.

 

[Vercingetorix]

Picking Chad Durbin up off the scrap heap at the last minute in March and using him in half the team's games is one of the more inexplicable moves the Braves have made since the 80s.

 

[Vercingetorix]

Is Heyward out because of the slide into the fence or did Frediot just pull a Frediot move?

It appeared to be just a Frediot double switch.

 

[GAVol]

He made the last out of an inning and got double switched out of the game.

Oh, let me recap this one.

Fredi let Hudson hit for himself in the top of the seventh and he struck out trying to bunt. And then replaced him in the bottom half at the start of the inning. True story.

And then he replace Heyward with Diaz for defense in the 8th. Another true story.
