mookie3127 3,217 Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 I know. He'll be back, but I'm just so disgusted with that effort. I know Brooks is catching a lot of grief but I feel like he played poorly...but he tried. I just can't deal with the lack of effort...especially in that situation.gotta agree....i thought we traded yunel. gonzo's lack of hustle tonight on the soft liner that handcuffed edgar was far to reminiscent........

ATLBrave 3,602 Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Come on man, as someone who's been a Bobby critic over the years can we try to keep it classy around here for the manager that brought us our one World Series title as he calls it a career?How about the city of Atlanta and the state of Georgia as a whole our one and only professional championship. I don't care how many times he missed out on another, it's the fact that we can say we have one because of him is what makes him a legend and the best ever in my eyes.

Warrior999 385 Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 I didn't even bother to watch tonight game. Last night loss just took all the enjoyment away. Time to start the next Era in Braves history. Hopefully in this Era of Braves history they will learn the fundamentals of the game. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

blizzard_falcon 2,428 Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 So with Chipper and Prado back next year, do we keep Infante as a utility guy or do we stick him in LF as a starter?He might have to play shortstop -- isn't Alex Gonzalez a free agent again after this year? Same goes for Rick Ankiel, Kyle Farnsworth, Derek Lee, Eric Hinske, and David Ross if I'm not mistaken.Our lineup could look very different next season depending on how much money the organization is willing to spend. I for one would love to see us go out and get a clutch outfielder like Carl Crawford or Jayson Werth, and I honestly wouldn't mind picking up a quality starting third baseman... I'm not so sure Chipper is coming back. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ATLBrave 3,602 Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Gonzalez has an option that will get picked up, and Ross just re-signed during the season. As for our remaining free agents, Lee is the only one that is for sure gone. I absolutely want us to bring back Hinske. Man was awesome for us this year. I'd also like to see us bring back Ankiel for a cheaper price to replace Melky's fat *** as the 4th OF and possibly re-sign Farnsworth, but only for real cheap.

Thanks for clearing that up.I think they're both out of our range as well -- I'm pretty sure the Yankees will be chasing after Crawford -- but it's still a nice dream I can hold on to.

Ransack 3,292 Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Ankiel has a $6 million mutual optionFarnsworth has a $5.25 million club option with a 500k buyoutI don't expect either option to be picked up nor do I expect us to re-sign either player. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ShadowChaos 28 Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Braves did basically give this series to the Giants. If they can have better health this could be a team that might make some noise in the playoffs next year. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
=abrahamburger= 2,566 Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Good times. It was just like old times. Thank you Braves.
