One of the new brightspots this season has been Jace. Was ready to write him off when we sent him down and he struggled in AAA, but he looks like a guy who may be in our future plans again.
While in AAA, Jace hits, .188/.275/.258 Since coming back up Jace has hit, .359/.420/.551 Can't explain that.
saw a former beat reporter that is working with him on a book say she has finished the book and it is due spring '17 will buy day 1
Calm down, Coppy. http://www.ajc.com/news/sports/baseball/braves-coppy-maitan-gutierrez-could-arrive-sooner-/nrrTP/
Povse pitched 6 innings and struck out 11 tonight. Banuelos threw 5 innings and only gave up a hit for Gwinett. Ozzie 3-6 Peterson 3-6 w/ 3 rbi
Weigel - 7IP, 2H, 1ER, 1BB, 11 Ks 2 more hits for Derian Cruz. Only a little over 30 ABs so far in GCL play, but he's hitting over .400
From @bravesprospects Jason Hursh with 2 scoreless innings, 2K tonight for @mbraves Last 12G 22.2IP 1.59ERA 7BB 18K 1.15WHIP. The Diamondbacks traded us Touki Toussaint so they'd have the money to sign Yoan Lopez.. he's left the team
Took in the game with my kids yesterday. Very well played by Atlanta and in no way did I expect them to tag Fernandez for 9 runs. Fun day at the TED, gonna miss that place, but good things are ahead on the field.
With that said, it's the only pitch he can throw for a strike today. Impressed with how Flowers is handling him.
Mississppi was getting beat 7-0 and they brought in Jordy Lara to pitch, who usually plays 1st base. He was throwing 97mph and dropped off a 83mph slider. He was throwing it from almost a sidearm motion as well. https://twitter.com/BravesReddit/status/749815334673068032/photo/1 Get rid of that guys 1st base glove and make him a pitcher full time.

http://adequateman.deadspin.com/you...source=deadspin_twitter&utm_medium=socialflow You Are Allowed To Disown The Braves
i won't disown them but i don't blame someone who lives in atlanta doing that. shameful stuff but i don't live there so oh well
This is the exact point Magary is trying to make. To people like you, it doesn't matter. You'll come into town on a weekend and driving to Cobb instead of Turner will have a negligible impact on your travel time. You'll probably stay at the Galleria or someplace in Buckhead and the lack of public transit will have no bearing on you whatsoever because it wasn't factored into the equation to begin with. But to those of us who live in the city, the move to Cobb is as fucking egregious as they come. Cobb's refusal to do shit about public transportation is maddening. They expect city folk to Uber to the county line to get on buses to the stadium when most of us have Marta stops in close proximity to our homes. And what are you doing trying to party in Mechanicsville anyway?
I live in North Atlanta and the drive down 85 to the current stadium sucks ass. It will suck ass going to the new one too, but at least it is closer and at least there will actual be stuff to do at the new stadium instead of walking through a maze of chain link fence crossing abandoned parking lots.
Stuff to do? That whole area is essentially an office park. I don't think we're ever going to get the Wrigleyville experience but it would seem to be a lot easier to develop the surrounding lots of Turner than to pack up and move to the sticks. The Barves literally took their football and went home.
Over a billion dollars to get a slightly more convenient drive for a portion of the fan base and a few more entertainment options. Money well spent.
I live basically within walking distance of the new stadium and I'm going to have to move when my lease is up because fuck the traffic it will cause. Having said that The Ted kind of sucked and the location was awful
