The Atlanta Braves Thread VII

[Regulator]

Pretty sure Medlen's bullpen splits were really strong vs lefties because of his change up. I'm confused by the whole shuffling if Maholm and Hudson still has ve a spot at the end of this. Is Hudson a 10/5 guy? Guessing yes..

Hiya Jimmy.

Hopefully Paul is traded when Beachy comes back. We are looking for a left handed utility upgrade as well.

Hiya Jimmy.

Not quite sure what I reported or linked..

I don't know that the bench is as much of a concern as national media types (people linking us to various trades) make it out to be. Schafer is a very strong defensive OF in all three spots, a perfect pinch runner, and as good as an OBP bench option as you're going to find. Gattis is the clear power bench bat. Laird isn't going anywhere. Janish is the best bench glove across the infield there is. The only need for depth is if you don't believe in Chris Johnson or Dan uggla hitting in the second half, or you're banking on an injury.

We'd already discussed Huddy being a 10/5 guy, but I'm not sure what the Jimmy Statute of Limitations is.

 

[AV_12]

Yeah, as long as there aren't any bad injuries infield wise, janish and rev filling in for a game or two will not kill us.

Can there be a partial jimmy?

I'd love if the Reds had those Bench problems...

If rev stays and Janish goes, I'll be highly upset

Gattis
Schafer
Laird
Janish
Reed

is my guess. If we acquire someone worth having, DFA or trade Reed. Funny we're looking for a LH bench bat that's enjoying sausages in Milwaukee

Would no doubt be the weakest jimmy ever handed out but whatever

 

[VOLinthaNATI]

Reed Johnson would be the best bat off of Cincy's bench by a wide margin.

Agreed.

I didn't see the original, but I don't think this rises to Jimmy-level. Too much of a question.

Lol I'm not saying hand it out to you. I was just wanting to know the rules

 

[Vercingetorix]

Mrs Verc finally comes home today. Thank God. Edward Snowden could have assassinated the queen and I probably would have missed it.

Soon. Vol on the Plains (i think he works for Auburn) said rumors going around the Berry twins are committing this weekend. Hope it's true

I hope so too, but don't trust anything from Auburn.

Forget the shake. Check out that wall/rug combo!

Looks Bama-ish to me, needs to be more orange.

Very fung shui
