The Braves

Just for the record, if the Braves can get any, and I mean any pitching this year, they're going to be the best team in the National League. They have ridiculous offense. All those rookies have had a full spring training and have a year under their belt. Andrew and Chipper are always going to be good. If Francouer can take a pitch every once in a while, he'll turn around his .053 batting average. Giles should stay healthy, and might be one of the best hustlers in the majors.

Pitching: If anyone can do anything for the Braves, we'll be good to go. If we can get an 18 game winner, or a couple of 14 or 15 game winners, we'll be money. We need a closer, but at the rate we're going, the offense is only going to need about 6 innings of quality innings. Mazzone is gone, so we could struggle. I think though, that Davies is a wild card, and he'll probably struggle early-but when that kids on, he's unbeatable. Smoltz is Smoltz-good for 15 wins at least. Finally baseball is here. And a shout out to Tim: the Sandiego Padres, Cincinatti Reds, and the New York Yankees, well, they all suck. Sorry dude, your hometown teams aren't taking home anything this year.

First of all I hate the Yankees and couldn't name a player for the Padres. I don't like these teams; I don't why you continue to stress this point. Secondly, talk to me when the Braves have a starting pitcher who gets a win. The Reds are winning the wild-card at least. Thanks for coming out.

What . . . too afraid to reply? The bullpen looked great today against the Giants. Haha, Braves suck.
