Marlins beat writer mentions that a swap of Uggla for Vazquez would make sense for both teams. I'd never do this trade, unless Uggla learned LF.

Atlanta might give Hudson a 3 year contract worth 27 million. I'd say he's worth 9 a year.

Braves were the third best team in baseball in 2009. OPS x 10 - ERA. Atlanta's "opsera" was 3.87, behind only LAD and NYY.

Umpires Today

Watching the Braves and other MLB games this year, I have noticed particularly awful umpiring. Anywhere from tonight's call on Escobar at the plate to Bill Hohn's inconsistent strike zone, umpires have blown calls very frequently this year. So, I want to know, what is the cause of all of these blown calls that we are seeing? I personally think that MLB should institute a challenge system much like the NFL's. I know that people complain about the length of the game, but I think that the slow nature of the game is what makes it unique in comparison to other American sports. Anyways, please vote on the pole. Thanks.

I don't know how many of you have already read this, but I think its a pretty cool article. If Luke Scott ended up on the Braves, he could protect Chipper and McCann in more than one way.

We will definitely miss his bat. Hopefully Ross will do what he has been doing at the plate. The only question is, who will bat fourth? My vote is Frenchy.

Three of our players are in consideration.
