Nice post. Why is it we get stuck with a **** pitcher in some shape or form every year now?

They showed a graphic earlier, the Braves have more runs scored with 2 outs than with 0 and 1 out combined...

Speaking of, 2 more this inning. Francoeur's on fire.

Cuz that's just how it is. Can't wait to see what surprises they have in store for 2008.

How much more of Redman must we see?

[Kohlstar20]

Do you guys think the Braves need to start looking for a starting pitcher via trade? Not only does Redman suck but James and Davies haven't exactly been pitching well like everyone expected.

C. James: 4.22 ERA in 21.1 IP with opponents batting .302 against him.
K. Davies: 0-1 with a 6.19 ERA and 11 BB in 16 IP
I won't even post Redman's stats so far as we all know how ***** he has pitched.

EDIT: Maybe a trade wouldn't be the answer after I just heard Chip and Joe talking about Villarreal and McBride possibly being emergency starters. I do however think something needs to be done about the back end of the rotation.

Chuck James will settle down. The verdict is still out on Davies.

[BaseballCtchr]

Yeah I do not know what to think about Davies because even in his first year he won games but his WHIP was like 1.5.

Kelly Johnson's really taken to that leadoff spot, hasn't he? 3 walks and 3 runs scored, Braves back up 7-6...

Frenchy looked so bad early that last at bat, then worked it full before being called out on a pitch well off the plate. Still, he's having a lot better ABs lately.
