I'm a lot more excited about Bourn than I was originally. I can't wait to see him on the base in an Atlanta uni. Injuries or not they've kind of been treading water since the break & Bourn could be a big spark at the top of the order. Looks to be a very good fielder as well.
Of course McLouth had that reputation coming in too..

is ed wade a saboteur placed within the astros organization by a rival team?

It's hard to place the blame on anybody but thodoks at this point.

a card-carrying contrarian couldn't hitch a wagon to a more appropriate team than the 'stros

At least they can still build around Wandy Rodriguez and Lance Berkman.

I guess Adam Everett will have to put the squadron on his shoulders.

Wren to Wade, "Really? That's all you want?"

This team is fun again even if Zambrano showed his ass tonight.
On a serious note good night Ernie Sr; thanks for the memories of when I was just a little boy listening/watching to the Braves with my grandmother.

Ernie Sr. had a great sense of humor. I remember him once saying during a broadcast, "...there's about as much chance of that happening as Dale Murphy wearing an earring."

Even though they struggled with the sticks, tonight's batting lineup was pretty impressive. Here's to hoping we stay healthy!
Bourn CF
Prado LF
McCann C
Uggla 2B
Freeman 1B
Jones 3B
Gonzalez SS
Constanza RF
Pitcher
Hinske, Conrad, Heyward coming off the bench

he's fine, he's been hurt all year and he's got a hole in his swing he's working out. He's still working on his timing as well If Constanza weren't killing it, he'd be playing everyday still.

He's only like 14. Give him time.

Alex · **Posted:** Wed Aug 17, 2011 3:56 pm

i was kidding about heyward's demise. but the way fredi is treating the lineup, you'd think fredi has stuck a fork in him. can't constanza learn left field?

lennytheweedwhacker · **Posted:** Wed Aug 17, 2011 4:31 pm

Fredi treats objects like he treats women.
