he is such a douche. I guess his agent finally advised him to to actually apologize for one of his idiotic statements. It sucks when a HOFer and one of your franchises best players ever is such a total ass. I already knew he was a redneck jerk who cheats on his wives before he got on twitter. But now I know a lot more than I ever wanted to. He was never my favorite Brave, but he is about to pass Andruw Jones for my least favorite Brave that didn't totally suck as a player. I have a friend that was a clubhouse manager for the Triple-A Richmond Braves and he swears on his life that chipper was the biggest piece of crap he ever met. Klesko was apparently a genuinely awesome guy. No surprise. No surprise really. Most people knew he was a dirtbag when he got busted cheating on his first wife with a Hooters waitress. I don't think he was well liked by anybody honestly, especially in his latter years. The guy was an incredible ball player but is a selfish, redneck, ignorant jerk.

CC Sabathia was better when he was fat, too. He tops out at 86 mph now that he's thinner. He's not a good enough pitcher with good enough movement or location to get by without that blazing fastball anymore. Hasn't pitched a good game since October 2012.

If I hadn't grown up watching the 90'S Braves and tomahawk chopping with my dad, I would despise him. I just have that childhood attachment. I became a Nats fan when they came to DC and started following San Francisco when their double A team replaced the Richmond Braves. Still love me some braves though. Pisses me off how overlooked Freeman gets when I hear top first baseman being discussed.

Thoughts on the possibility of the Yanks using a 6 man rotation?
I think we should test it out and hopefully it keeps CC and Tanaka healthy

I think more teams should be doing that. And there should be at least a couple more players on each active roster. There are too many games played, too many guys taking too many swings and throwing too many pitches. Need to give people a day off once and awhile.

Yankees, always penny pinching, never going that extra mile for their fans

Hey guys. Got a few more spots I need to fill in my fantasy league for the season. It's on ESPN, no money, just for fun. Only contingency is we really want people who will keep up and change their roster and stuff and actually play throughout the season.
If you're down shoot me a PM with your email you have linked to ESPN and I'll gladly add you.
Oh, and our fancy little SS from Korea? He's got more power than a hemi. Sheesh.

I used to think the Pirates just didn't care enough and let them have a morale victory. Then as I got older, I realized it was because the community college was fielding a more competitive team than the Pirates. Doh.
