    maybe you could make yourself a little more regcognizable, like doning one of those Francuor's "Franks" hot dog costumes, a McCann's "Cans" or the latest, Langer-"Hands" get-ups.

    i probly butchered everyone of those names

    Right now Kelly Johnson is making the Braves front office look like they are genious. This kid is playing his ass off so far.

    Johnson does a great job at working the count. That was my biggest problem with Giles. It seemed like after 2 pitches he was in an 0-2 hole.

    Let's Go Bravos!!!!!

    The top 3 guys in the Atlanta lineup (KJ, Edgar and Chipper) does a good job in working the count.

    The Braves finally gave up on Langerhans and shipped him to the Athletics for a player to be named or cash.

    Langerhans had his chance but didn't get it done. Maybe a change of scenery will do him good.

    The Braves need someone to step up and take over the third spot in the starting rotation. Redman was a flop and Davies hasn't been much better. I don't think James is ready for much more than the 5th spot and middle relief. If Cormier can't do it, they need to start looking at what's out there.

    I am very concerned about the rotation as well. James looks like he is the third starter, as yes I agree that he proably more suited to be a 4 or 5. The problem with trying to get a starter during the season is you have to really overpay for whatever you may get. Someone needs to come out of the woodwork or the Braves will be in trouble later in the Summer.
