The Atlanta Braves Thread VII

Think they said Pena is dealing with an injury

 

[TBrown]

I'll gladly take that .350 career OBP at the leadoff spot and gold glove defense at third any day.

I'm pretty sure that OBP is floated on one season. He won a GG in his best offensive year, joke. I wouldn't pay him or the padres asking price.

Yeah. Bum shoulder.

 

[Scotty's Flat Top]

Maholm and Chris Johnson for Aramis Ramirez

Yes. One outlier season of great surrounded by years of average.

Yes. One outlier season of great surrounded by years of average.

He had a .374 OBP in 2011 and a career 10% walk rate. And he's always rated as a solid defender even before the gold glove. He can lead off too.

Technically 2 years.

Would you trade Graham or Wood for him? And whatever else.

Let me answer that for him. NO WAY.

 

[Scotty's Flat Top]

I'd go Chris Johnson, Maholm, and Myke Jones right now for Headley

 

[Scotty's Flat Top]

Butch I might even throw in Pastornipples just because Pastornipples

 

[Vercingetorix]

I have no idea who Ted Koppel is.

And "dropped" is a pretty common word when referring to albums today.

Oh well, doesn't matter.

That's what's funny. Saying an album "dropped" has gone from silly, "dank sauce"-quality lingo to something mainstream that normal people say unironically. It's funny to see how the language changes, is all.

Okay, I gotcha now. :hi:

Exactly

I'd vote 2011 not being "great"

 

[Scotty's Flat Top]

I was referencing the outlier in relation to his OBP.

 

[TBrown]

I was referencing the outlier in relation to his OBP.

I got ya. Fair enough

 

[Scotty's Flat Top]

I got ya. Fair enough

I'm with ya though. He would never be worth the premium package or the contract someone is going to be foolish enough to pay him.

 

[Notorious B.E.N]

Born Sinner dropped today!

Yeezus too

 

[TBrown]

How do you go from hitting 8th in the scrub game to leading off with the regulars..

 

[Notorious B.E.N]

I didn't get to watch today, was Wood bad? Only 3 IP? Stat line didn't look bad, except for 3 walks

Fredi....i bet he wears orange pants when hes not in uniform

No he was good. Pitch count got high with the walks (his new glasses were bothering him). He had a blister and hasn't started since 5/25 so he got the hook around 70 pitches. Chris Johnson cost him his only run

I didn't watch. But they said he was having grip issues i.e. blisters
