Chipper Jones heard a POP. Not the normal pop he hears when he opens a new bottle of Crown Royal as he holds it down in a VIP room over at Opera. No this pop was his ACL. First off let me start out by saying that I have been a die hard Braves fan for as long as I can remember. My parents used to take me to games and one of my best memories was when Bream slid in safe at home and my dad started chucking me up in the air. Chipper going down means the Braves are in trouble. We dont have 1 legit power bat in the lineup outside of BMAC that plays on a regular basis. Dont get me wrong, its not like Chipper has been stroking it this year but he still scares people. No one is scared of Omar "Gooding" Infante and surely no one is scared of Rick Ankiel or Melky Cabrera. Oh by the way Melky, Paul Bunyan called and wants his ax chopping back. Troy Glaus used to be scary until he realized he was Troy Glaus. Thanks a lot Frank Wren. Not only have you tied our hands with the contracts of Derek Lowe, Chiper Jones and Kenshin Kawakami, but you gave us very little to get excited over with the aquiring of Rick Ankiel and Farnsworth. Any fool out there could see we needed a LEGIT bat in our lineup and just like your predecessor your out to prove your smarter than everyone else. Well jokes on you BROheim. Ankiel sucks some kind of nasty and is a career .248 hitter with a whopping .310 OBP. Your boy Jeff Francoeur has the same OBP!! Dont fear, Frank Wren got us Rick Ankiel! What a joke. I hate to sound so pessimistic but the Braves are in trouble. The Phillies have been playing without their best 2 players for 2 weeks now and 1 of their best 2 players for almost 3 months and they have cut our lead down to 2 games. If we dont make the playoffs this year you can point to Frank Wren and his inability to do anything right as the reason were sitting at home come this October.
Troy Glaus is so easy to make fun of that is sometimes gets old. Actually it never gets old and I do it almost everyday. What I cant figure out is how he is allowed to use a telephone pole for a bat? Isnt that against some kind of rules or regulations? For all you AT&T users out there, have you ever noticed everytime he swings you get more bars? The further away from turner field you are the more likely you are to drop a call. Have u also ever noticed he has never broken a bat? Thats bc its a freaking telephone pole! A baseball stands no chance against that hunk of lumber.
