Insane
Clearly everyone wants to watch Nate, the only reason this thread is going so long. /sarcasm
Hey that double switch did absolutely nothing, did it?
Maybe they can send Russell to manager school.
Our lesson today, boys, is called “the hit and run.”
Jones.
Larry “Chipper” Jones.
You lose the right to be called “Chipper” after age 30.

Reminds
me of Bob Walk, sounds drunk most of the time and is calling games for a team that’s been bad for a long time
And then
a WP gets Jurrjens to 2nd.

I think I would have gone to Capps. I don’t trust Meek.

Anyone tired of...
…every team showing the rookie reliever w/a “Pretty Kitty” backpack walking out to the bullpen?
one meeeeeelion innings....

OMG
How is it possible that Craig Monroe is having the exact same season in 2009 that Nate, Sr. had in 2008?
Yogi was right — “It’s deja vu all over again.”
And if he looks like Moss
we can call him Moss Sr. and it’ll be all like 2008 again.
Except that we have Vazquez instead of Eye Chart

Cutch
All I wanted was to see Cutch hit with someone on again. Way to be Pirates.
The Pirates
like having him lead off

Just curious
Hinske has flashed power (20 HR last year).
Why doesn’t he get more time?

That sounds
Like a bit much. This is AMERICA!
How's that roster spot
for Morton looking now. Surely we do not need Hinske and Monroe and Delwyn Young. Didn’t we get one other outfielder in the Bay or Nady trades? If we need a fourth outfielder/pinch-hitting specialist, let it at least be a young guy. Or cut Monroe and give Hinske more playing time.
I went to a Pirates game a few years ago
that lasted 22 innings or so… we left in the 17th to go to Eat’n’Park, ate, then went back to the hotel and the game was STILL on. The Pirates won, though…

Braves broadcast just announced
activity in the Pirates bullpen. Then showed the maintenance crew cleaning up for the night. Pretty funny.
Sit down David Ross
The old Public Enemy Number 1.
You got a call on line one, btw. It’s Ronny Paulino — he wants to know where his career went.
yup

I'm not sure who the Atlanta announcers are right now
but their observation is that the strike zone is “getting bigger and bigger and bigger.” Guess the umps want to get back to the motel early.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Of course
I spent the last 2 weeks randomly predicting Bay would go yard… and was wrong most of the time.

Not too many major leaguers

It could be a new chapter to MoneyBall
What's our LOB tonight?

Don't know how old it is
but have you guys seen the video on youtube of the guy that failed at the IBB and let the winning run score when he threw the intentional ball behind the batter?

I'm pretty sure I also saw
Willie Stargell swing at one while they were trying to intentionally walk him. Made the count 3 & 1. Pitcher had to throw an extra pitch.
And here we go...
15th ahoy!

I guess the good news is...
Medlen is in until his arm falls off.
that could be awhile
Maybe we can get them to put Hansen in. He looked pretty human in his first start
Mission accomplished
excellent bunt

we found the perfect job for you

We should call Morton up now.
He’ll have time to fly out to Atlanta and pitch by the time this is over.

Gotta think that with Karstens pitching today that Gorzo could be headed back to Indy with Morton getting called up.
Or
Gorzo could get a spot start.

Yeah
But extenuating circumstances could lead to a spot start. It’s not out of the question.

Welcome to Coffee Talk. I'll give you a topic.
Adam LaRoche is neither “Mr. October” nor “Mr. April, May or June.” Discuss.
(He’s just killing me.)
We should trade Karstens
for the best offer. I don’t care if 8 bats and a patch of grass

the Braves had to score before midnight to avoid turning into pumpkins.
