Bud Selig's Justice League

It seems the Commish is assembling a crack squad of respected superhumans to review such things as instant replay, and other on field issues. Our very own John Schuerholz will be a memeber...

Schafer injured?

bravesguy311 — Mon, 20 Apr 2009 18:33:13 -0000

Heres what I just read:

From the The Sports Xchange: Center fielder Jordan Schafer clearly earned his spot on the season-opening roster and in the starting lineup. But he never spent a day at Triple-A and he missed 50 games at Double-A last season because of an HGH suspension. Add to the fact he had never played in any major league park until this season or faced that many major league pitchers (other than those he saw in limited innings in spring training) and there are going to be growing pains. That would be in addition to an actual pain: Word is Schafer hurt his left wrist to some degree during the opening series in Philadelphia, but he won't talk about it.

well, shit

I was cruising down the information superhighway and found this gem. Thought you guys might want to take a look, Its a signed Braves jersey from the start of Spring Training, complete with about 3 or 4 future Hall of Famers signatures. I questioned the authenticity, as there are no pictures or certificates, but it looks pretty legit. Some lucky bastard walked away with this for a song and a dance. Take a looksee....

Looks like the Shef will be with our division rivals, hopefully he can eat away at the clubhouse there in Flushing. Intrested to hear your thoughts......

Looking Beyond the '09 season

It will be intresting to see who the Braves will eventually get as their frontline starter this year, but I was curious to see who would be on the market next year if we again have some money to play with.

Brandon Backe HOU
Miguel Batista SEA
Josh Beckett * BOS
Erik Bedard SEA
Chris Capuano MIL
Jose Contreras CWS
Doug Davis ARZ
Justin Duchscherer OAK
Adam Eaton * PHI
Kelvim Escobar LAA
Rich Harden CHC
Tim Hudson * ATL
John Lackey LAA
Cliff Lee * CLE
Jason Marquis CHC
Mark Mulder STL
Brett Myers PHI
Vicente Padilla * TEX
Brad Penny LAD
Joel Pineiro STL
Jason Schmidt LAD
John Smoltz ATL
Claudio Vargas NYM
Jarrod Washburn SEA
Brandon Webb * ARZ
Todd Wellemeyer STL

Some good names there, some real mediocre ones as well. Webb, Lackey and Escobar jump out at me. If our choices for a starter are limited, maybe we could sock away some cash for the likes of these fellows.......
