Come on guys.. Fredi is telling us to look at the front mirror and not the rear view mirror.. We must listen to his wisdom.

I hope they dont go on a terrible losing streak to start the season. No doubt 0-4 is bad but they can recover from that..If they continue to lose against teams they should be beating this is going to be a very very long season. Mybae Chipper coming back will give them some energy.

Had the strangest dream about starting 0-4 against shitty teams.

Oh wait...

To better our defense why don't we consider moving Uggla to LF and moving Prado to 2B?? This also maximizes our offensive potential IMO.

Then we can make a move for David Wright at the deadline...

Any thoughts??

Uggla is a 2B. He as always been a second basemen. He does not have the quick feet that Prado has, why the hell would you move him to LF?

LF doesn't require as much speed as CF and RF does nor does it require the arm IMO...I've always been a big believer that up the middle defense is more important and Uggla doesn't have a good glove at 2B...By putting Prado there and calling up Simmons to play short when we do with Bourn in CF - that's solid up the middle. Uggla would be a liability in left, sure, but not as big a one as he is at 2B.

The guy added muscle in the offseason, how the hell is he going to move in LF? We need to stop hitting the panic button fire Fredi and hire a manager with a brain.

I'm not hitting the panic button at all. I've actually want this to happen for awhile. I think it would be a lot better for our pitching staff to have sure outs in the infield.

But yes we do need a new manager. I still maintain that Pendleton should've never been removed as hitting coach as well.

I wouldn't be shocked if Fredi got fired today. I also wouldn't be shocked if he rode it out until September.

No way we are that lucky. I honestly think it would take us losing consistently into June.

I'm wondering how many games it takes to fire Fredi. Wren can go as well.

Any FO who thinks a combo of Durbin/Livan is taking them places can GTFO.

Pretty terrible when Braves nation is putting all of there hopes on the return of chipper jones to save this team. Umm unless Chipper hits a liner and it knocks Fredi out I have no hope.

I'm not trying to be Chicken Little here but as long as Liberty Media is running the show we're never going to be anything more than an above average team at best.

They brought in Livan to prevent Fredi from destroying O'Ventbrel. Unfortunately giving Fredi two converted starters in the pen is like giving a 4 year old a pocket knife.

Why did we sign Durbin again? I would've thought since Grabow was out there we'd get him if they wanted the lefty (they were going to call up Flande)
