Never thought I’d say this, but it’s in the team’s and the player’s best interest to trade Chipper Jones.
He’s reached the point where his best and highest use is as a DH. We could probably get a lot for him and we need the pieces ’cause we are going to suck for awhile.
Everyone says Chipper needs to be a DH, but he keeps getting hurt running the bases. I think the last time he got hurt in the field was the San Francisco series in April 2006. He’s still a sure-handed fielder. He doesn’t want to play for anyone else. What else is there to say about it?
Haven’t been around much in the past month cuz I’ve been moving to a new city/apt and starting a new job and what not (plus the Braves suck), but I just had to come back and gloat at Chief Nocahoma a little bit about his bama / clemson prediction:
on July 29th, 2008 at 7:48 pm, in the midst of making easily the stupidest baseball related argument anyone on this board has made all year, the ole Chief, obviously a Barn fan, had this to say about the game:
Have fun this year with no DL and LBs that run in the 4.8 range.
CJ Spiller and Davis may run for 350 yds combined against that ‘defense’.
I think we all saw how that played out on the field…
I’ll probably watch. There isn’t anything better on.

How is it possible that he’s that old …?

September 1st, 2008 at 11:49 am@3 per that, we can’t make him go anywhere else
September 1st, 2008 at 12:17 pmYeah, he’s obviously a 10 and 5 guy who has said he would retire if the Braves didn’t want him anymore.
September 1st, 2008 at 12:26 pmChipper trade=non-starter. 10-5 guy, says he’ll stay. Can’t trade him nor should you even if would accept it.
Should have had Francoeur bunt there. He hits the most like a pitcher than anyone in today’s lineup.

September 1st, 2008 at 1:54 pmLet’s leave Hampton in at 106 pitches. He’s one of our better hitters, and who cares if his arm falls off?
September 1st, 2008 at 2:15 pmA meme spreads…
September 1st, 2008 at 2:53 pmYippee. Another one-run road loss…
September 1st, 2008 at 2:56 pmSo where are we now in the #1 Draft Pick sweepstakes.
Can I count Spiller’s 96 yd kickoff return in that yardage?
September 1st, 2008 at 3:00 pmLame recap is up.
