When will he be sent to Gwinnett? Dude has struck out 33 times this year, and about 12 times in the last 5 games. He's got to be leading MLB in K's. Now for the good news, Garrett Anderson is about ready to return to the lineup. Can't wait. His .200 average, with no HR's and RBI must be the missing ingredient the Braves havae needed for the last 3 weeks.

On that home run last night. He miss judged the ball and was about 10 feet. Jumped up and looked like a retard.

His .200 average? That's a little harsh. Two games ago he was hitting .270 and had an OBP of higher than .400. He's drawn 18 walks this year, and when he puts the ball in play the result is usually good. Problem is, pitchers have found his weak spot -- by jamming him up in the zone. The kid has shown a willingness to make adjustments and if he shortens up on his swing to take that pitch away from the pitchers, he will be a very good little baseball player.

And who do you want to bring up? Gregor Blanco? Get out of here with that shite.

I was referring to Garret Anderson. And did you hear me mention Blanco? It's called reading comprehension.

Cox is well known for letting young guys work through there early struggles and not sending them down during rough patches.

So who's going to play center when you send Schafer down? Anderson can barely play left field.

He strikes out too much, but is drawing a lot of walks, and like you said, he is our best option.

They kept trying to drive the point home last night that his wrist is bothering him and that is the problem, but he whiffed on at least 3 middle of the plate fastballs last night. That's not a wrist issue.

He can have all the time he wants in the order the next three days at Citi Field.
