Get to have a meet and greet with Teke, have lunch in the clubhouse and take some BP……

It will be cool to see Teke. He was the first player I ever met and got an autograph from.

by Brakeman8 on Sep 7, 2010 9:14 PM EDT up reply actions  

When we were there for The Gathering,

Teke was in the stadium.

Vlad took 2 pictures of me & him. I had tears in my eyes, and was trying not to freak out.

My kid got his autograph

years ago when he was a front office type for the Washington Wildthings, when they were playing the Johnstown Jonnies. My boy waited quietly, while Teke was talking to some other older man, and Teke noticed him when he looked back and me and his mother. Teke then announced loudly that any kids that wanted his autograph should always interrupt him from talking to other adults. The guy is cool.

Pedro been playing some good D lately. Throws are a lot more accurate and still have the same power behind them.

by poorboywilly on Sep 7, 2010 9:13 PM EDT reply actions  

To nitpick

…good D would have been to field the ball hit directly at him cleanly. That being said, he stayed on it, reacted quickly and made a tremendously strong throw. Hopefully plays like this build his confidence

by Trogluddite on Sep 7, 2010 9:15 PM EDT up reply actions  

I also think

that having such a strong arm helps him relax and avoid rushing throws like that.

Playing a part in a possible Braves' collapse during Bobby Cox's last season . . .

would be a (slight) measure of revenge for his 91 and 92 teams breaking my adolescent heart. Man, that ‘91 Buccos team was good and I really thought Van Slyke had tied it in the bottom of the first in game 7, but alas, only the warning track. Fuck, up 3-2 goin back to Pittsburgh and we didn’t pull it off.

Everything that guy just said is bullshit . . .thank you

I talked to a guy I know at Happy Joe’s tonight when I picked up my pizza. He said he went to the game Wednesday and that he got a ticket for $5. He was shocked by how cheap the tickets were. He said the last time he was there was in late 2008…

If you were of a mind,

you could go to pretty much ANY game and get a walkup ticket for $5 now.

The Cubs stink. Just not as bad as us.

I was 15th row, first base line, and if I didn’t have an extra $1 in my pocket, I’d’ve got mine for $5, too.
