Ransack Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Guys should be fined every time they slide head first into first. All it does is slow you down and increase risk of injury. STOP IT!!Sliding into first period is stupid unless its some sort of crazy tag play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falconsfan567 Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 He was pretty close to beating out the throw though lolHad he kept running he might have beat it out. It would have been closer than it was with him sliding because sliding slows you down. There's a reason you don't see Olympic runners diving across the finish line.

Falconsfan567 Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 I give up. Julio Teheran is what he is, a very good pitcher but not a #1 stud. I argued that he was all offseason but I can't do it anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falconsfan567 Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Fantasy baseball makes people really stupid.Tim Bliss @bigtbliss 19m19 minutes ago I give up. Julio Teheran is what he is, a very good pitcher but not a #1 stud. I argued that he was all offseason but I can't do it anymore cprim23 @cprim23 17m17 minutes ago @bigtbliss he is garbage. Absolutely killing me Tim Bliss @bigtbliss 14m14 minutes ago @cprim23 He's not garbage. Just not the #1 I argued him to be all offseason. He's only a #2 or #3. cprim23 @cprim23 12m12 minutes ago @bigtbliss he's barely a rosterable fantasy pitcher at this point. He needs to be DL'd and tinkered with on the farm Tim Bliss @bigtbliss 6m6 minutes ago @cprim23 Really bro? I'm talking real baseball and you're talking about that fantasy crap? Get real! cprim23 @cprim23 5m5 minutes ago @bigtbliss it's all relative. No ace through 3 SP pitches this bad this often. He needs to go away Tim Bliss @bigtbliss 4m4 minutes ago @cprim23 He's having a bad year. It happens. He was great in 2013 and 2014. HeIl coming into tonight Kershaw's ERA was 4.32. cprim23 @cprim23 @bigtbliss he better right the ship. This is unacceptable Tim Bliss @bigtbliss 1m1 minute ago@cprim23 Right because Greg Maddux, Tom Glavine and John Smoltz never had bad games or years? Tim Bliss @bigtbliss 1m1 minute ago @cprim23 Again, he was great in 2013 and 2014. He's just having a bad year. It happens. He's still a #2 or #3 pitcher.

Falconsfan567 Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 cprim23 @cprim23 @bigtbliss those were HOF men. Julio is a boy. You know tommy and smoltzy and Maddux could have better years in their sleep Tim Bliss @bigtbliss 32s32 seconds ago @cprim23 Smoltz in 1994 had an ERA of 4.14 with an ERA+ of 102. Julio in 2013 had a 3.20 ERA with 117 ERA+. Last year 2.89 ERA, 127 ERA+ Tim Bliss @bigtbliss 4s4 seconds ago @cprim23 Before tonight Julio's ERA was 3.91 with an ERA+ of 100.

Unknøwn Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Pierzynski will likely start tonight. He's at .404 with 3 HR in over 50 ABs against Greinke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unknøwn Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Chris Johnson has been activated and is in LA. Uribe will be in uniform tonight as well. Donnie Veal also added back to the roster after the trade of Thomas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

usmcdirtybird Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 FF, Why did we want Uribe? What do others think about this deal? How did we do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K26dp Posted May 27, 2015 Author Share Posted May 27, 2015 FF, Why did we want Uribe? What do others think about this deal? How did we do?Uribe's not the main piece for the Braves, Chris Withrow is. The difference between the salary we picked up and the salary we moved is about +$1M. So for a $1M, the Braves got the rights to 5 seasons of a reliever that has been compared to Jordan Walden.Uribe can be flipped later, or be kept and we trade Chris Johnson. Or we trade both in separate trades and move Peterson to 3B. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unknøwn Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 Pierzynski shared his experiences playing with Uribe in Chicago. He said Uribe is a fun guy with a lot of energy, always has a smile but will hold you accountable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jidady Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 FF, Why did we want Uribe? What do others think about this deal? How did we do?He's a fantastic defender who is capable of hitting very well for the position. I don't think we'll have him more than two months, though. If I were him, I wouldn't even get an apartment. I'd just live at a hotel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
