Re: 2011 Atlanta Braves

Yeah, no one is really dwelling on it too much, but our defense is going to lose us a fair share of games next year.

It did last year as well. Our defense hasn't been good for some time now. The last time I really consider to have a good defense was a young AJ in CF, Brian Jordan in RF, Gerald Williams in left, Chipper at 3B, Weiss at SS, Boone at 2B.

Re: 2011 Atlanta Braves

I wish there was this many Phillies fans on OS. Phillies thread is dead. Anyway, good luck to you guys this season. Hopefully Heyward breaks out this year and proves that he will be the stud that everyone thinks he will be.

That was what, '99?

Honestly, I don't think Prado will be that bad in left.

And knowing Wren, if the defense isn't working after a while....then you know something will be done to fix it.

Yup...1999, the year we won our last Pennant. I personally think that while they are planning on moving Prado to LF, they also know he'll play a lot of 3B because they won't rely on Chipper to be able to go.

Re: 2011 Atlanta Braves

well, I think they rely on Prado to play 3B not because he won't be ready to go, but because Chipper is Chipper and will probably only be able to play 120 games anyway.

Re: 2011 Atlanta Braves

Is anyone going to any of the caravan dates this year?

Re: 2011 Atlanta Braves

Thinking about going Saturday in Montgomery. I would for sure go if it was better players, but a lackluster group unless you are a huge Huddy fan.
