I'm en route to spring training today, making the long hard drive down I-75 to Orlando. It looks like the rain has left the Disney area for the upcoming week, so I'm excited for warm weather finally. Maybe I can bring it back to Atlanta in a week.
I'm too early to know the batting order, but I do know that Tim Hudson will be on the mound for the Braves.

Roll Tide!

Roll Over????
I Saw Buzz Beaned - March 13, 2010
around the bowl
and down the hole, roll tide roll…..sorry coundn’t help it
bighop - March 13, 2010
I only do it because they own my ‘Canes. (And because it’s so fun)
I Saw Buzz Beaned - March 13, 2010
I'm a Vol fan
I’ve watched Bama beat my Vols too many times
bighop - March 13, 2010
Y'all got ditched big time this year.
You happy with your new coaching situation?
I Saw Buzz Beaned - March 13, 2010
He looks ok
His Dad was a good man. Good riddance to Kiffen, he was trash from the start. We’d have ended up in big trouble if he had stayed. Not saying Tenn is lilly white, but Kiffen was just too blatent.
bighop - March 13, 2010
Monte is definitely a class act...
But NEVER liked his boy. He thinks he deserves accolades and respect and does not understand that those are things that have to be earned.
I Saw Buzz Beaned - March 13, 2010
The only thing
he has ever won, are good jobs. Personality of a rock. Really glad he’s gone. I like Dooley, but kind of wish we’d let Fulmer have it for 1 year and have a real search instead of passing the screwing along. Fulmer is still being paid.
bighop - March 13, 2010
BTW,
DId you ever pick up Swan Song?
I Saw Buzz Beaned - March 13, 2010
Haven't found it
Haven’t forgotten, it’s McCammon isn’t it?
bighop - March 13, 2010
Robert McCammon
He also wrote a great lycantrope book called the Wolf’s Hour.

I Saw Buzz Beaned - March 13, 2010
I played at LSU when Dooley was there. Apparently he’s come a long way because at the time I would have never imagined him the head coach for a program like Tennessee.

Scott Coleman - March 13, 2010 via mobile
Is Melky or Diaz in RF?
Mr. Sanchez - March 13, 2010
Melky
Scott Coleman - March 13, 2010 via mobile
Hoping
I was hoping for a Prado lead off again today. Need to do something to get McLouth started. Or, I gurss he could just bunt every time!
bighop - March 13, 2010
Any audio link?
el crime dog - March 13, 2010
listening to the warmup on my iPhone At Bat app
RMM - March 13, 2010
Gotta love Jim Powell on the radio
“do or die play there for Chipper and well…he died.”

el crime dog - March 13, 2010
Thanks
Now I can hear Chipper GIDP
bighop - March 13, 2010
Huddy sounds great.
Scott Coleman - March 13, 2010 via mobile
I was soooo wrong about Hudson
Never really cared for him, but real glad we signed him this fall. 4 K’s thru 2 innings is ok by me.
bighop - March 13, 2010
Salcedo
Was in the press box earlier, made to the USA
bighop - March 13, 2010
They just said Salcedo was in the press box with them today…..Is the whole visa thing cleared up?
JKowalek - March 13, 2010
Gotta be if he's here in the states...
you have to assume he isn’t just in town to see the game and meet the press.
Mr. Sanchez - March 13, 2010
Haha +1
Scott Coleman - March 13, 2010 via mobile
unless
he snuck in again
bighop - March 13, 2010
Sounds like a future Met....
Mr. Sanchez - March 13, 2010
Follow up ? though...
we got Salcedo in, did we also fit Valdez into the clearing?
Mr. Sanchez - March 13, 2010
Glad to see
That everyone is their regular sarcastic selves this afternoon. lol
I Saw Buzz Beaned - March 13, 2010
I don’t know how that whole thing works but yeah i guess that makes sense.
JKowalek - March 13, 2010
Diaz hit and steals 2nd
good deal
bighop - March 13, 2010
Now batting.. Right Fielder Melky Cabrera...
Just doesn’t have that ring to it quite like that other kid that plays there.

Jeremy Reed….with 2 outs…..3rd out….1, 2, 3…good job Wags
bighop - March 13, 2010
talking about 6’6" Glaus is a great target for throws to 1st. Hope he can dig ’em out of the dirt.
bighop - March 13, 2010
pitching change,,,Dana Eavland…vs Cabrera
bighop - March 13, 2010
Cabrera…full count…fly to rt, drops for a hit, wind killed it

Thurston in @3rd, K 1 out

bighop - March 13, 2010
Prado diving stop, hit by ball, hit in wrist and chest, safe at 1st
bighop - March 13, 2010
They keep calling his changeup Dave
bighop - March 13, 2010
What are we missing there?
J-Freak - March 13, 2010
Moylan named his change up Dave, far out dude
bighop - March 13, 2010
I sense a lot of “Major League” moments coming on this season…
Terminator hit into the right field bleachers…
J-Freak - March 13, 2010
Over
Over rt field bleachers
bighop - March 13, 2010
Ah. 6 one, half-dozen the other.
J-Freak - March 13, 2010
Will the Ted hold all of Heywards homers?
bighop - March 13, 2010
Not at the distances he’s hitting ‘em at… I don’t think there’s a ballpark in operation today that will hold those 400-foot-plus mammoths.
J-Freak - March 13, 2010
hell fire freak
I’m talking out of the stadium!
bighop - March 13, 2010
The same principle applies. 450-footers like the one he hit this spring are LONG gone…
J-Freak - March 13, 2010
not bad for a line drive hitter, that was a bomb
bighop - March 13, 2010
“No no, it’s too high, it’s too high!”
homerun
SLAP! “Too high. What the hell does that even MEAN?”
J-Freak - March 13, 2010
classic

Might have had a BB, I missed something

I'm so excited, my hubby is home today and downloaded what I needed to listen to the game.
too bad we’re losing, but we’ll come back and win this one, maybe……
HEYJUDE - March 13, 2010
Home in Chatt
not a bad place to be
bighop - March 13, 2010
Not at all :)
HEYJUDE - March 13, 2010
EOF pitching, Sammons catching, Hinske 1st, Conrad 2nd
bighop - March 13, 2010
BB to Eavland
bighop - March 13, 2010
McCoy…double play 6-4-3
bighop - March 13, 2010
Thaimes…minor leaguer….3-2 pitch…3rd out Thurston to Hinske
bighop - March 13, 2010
Escobar…grounder to 3rd, out
bighop - March 13, 2010
C'mon Braves bats, wake up.....
HEYJUDE - March 13, 2010
Cabrera….base hit to left
bighop - March 13, 2010
Yeah, Diaz made another out just before Melky flys out,
C’mon guys.
HEYJUDE - March 13, 2010
No clue what I missed, 2 outs….bathroom break cost me……Hinske out, inning over
bighop - March 13, 2010
Diaz/out
HEYJUDE - March 13, 2010
Thanks
disappointing game so far
bighop - March 13, 2010
Yeah, I finally get to listen to one, and so far it $ucks. Ugh
HEYJUDE - March 13, 2010
OMG, Chavez in to pitch.
HEYJUDE - March 13, 2010
Chavez in to pitch, let us pray….infield single
bighop - March 13, 2010
Fisted to right, out 1
bighop - March 13, 2010
Sammons throws out a steal attempt
bighop - March 13, 2010
Hit to the outfield
bighop - March 13, 2010
Looper caught by Conrad…inning over….still 3-0
bighop - March 13, 2010
Chavez escapes damage, only because of some great D,
by Sammons and Conrad.
HEYJUDE - March 13, 2010
I really like listening to Don Sutton,
he’s good.
HEYJUDE - March 13, 2010
He sounds like baseball
bighop - March 13, 2010
So much better than Brian Jordan,
but doesn’t take much talent to do that, Brian is horrible.
HEYJUDE - March 13, 2010
Hinske…sharp hit to 2nd, out at 1st
bighop - March 13, 2010
Blanco….3-2 pitch….BB was down 2-0
bighop - March 13, 2010
sorry
0-2
bighop - March 13, 2010
Hinske
The box score on the Braves site had Hinske pitching the last inning instead of Chavez… I had to come here to check that we really weren’t trying to sabotage our season by destroying our bench.
BahamaBrave - March 13, 2010
HaHa
HEYJUDE - March 13, 2010
Makes two of us
I just signed in to check on exactly the same thing…
michaelcooksey - March 13, 2010
Conrad….rt center great catch out
bighop - March 13, 2010
Thurston….long at bat….foul offs…..3-2 pitch….fly to center another great catch
bighop - March 13, 2010
Sounded like Conrad and Thurston were robbed......
HEYJUDE - March 13, 2010
Dunn in to pitch
bighop - March 13, 2010
Hicks flys to catch a liner
bighop - March 13, 2010
Hicks, great defensive play!
HEYJUDE - March 13, 2010
I'm attending this game
Wondering if I can get a refund today too since the Braves didn’t show up
Cracker! - March 13, 2010 via mobile
I don't blame you.
I hope they play better when I get down there.
HEYJUDE - March 13, 2010
shallow rt, clelen makes the catch, 2 outs
bighop - March 13, 2010
clevlen
bighop - March 13, 2010
3-2 pitch….BB
bighop - March 13, 2010
ground rule double, wind got it, Blanco should have
bighop - March 13, 2010
Sounds like Blanco didn't hustle on that fly ball double.
HEYJUDE - March 13, 2010
I'm not impressed with Blanco.....
HEYJUDE - March 13, 2010
never have been, fire him!
bighop - March 13, 2010
Yep, I think we'vegiven him plenty of chances over the last few seasons to prove himself.
HEYJUDE - March 13, 2010
Dunn should have gotten out of the inning
bighop - March 13, 2010
This
HEYJUDE - March 13, 2010
HeyJude
Take a sad song and make it better
bighop - March 13, 2010
BB, bases loaded
bighop - March 13, 2010
Out of trouble….inning over
bighop - March 13, 2010
Good job Mr Dunn, could have gotten ugly
bighop - March 13, 2010
yes, indeed.
HEYJUDE - March 13, 2010
Our final chance to get some runs.
HEYJUDE - March 13, 2010
Mitch Jones….left center…1 out
bighop - March 13, 2010
C'mon Mitch
Long fly ball =nothing.
HEYJUDE - March 13, 2010
B Hicks…..batting .182…hit past 3rd
bighop - March 13, 2010
let's go Hicks
HEYJUDE - March 13, 2010
Question!
Talking Chop March Madness Bracket…would you be interested in joining? It’s free and just for braggin rights around TC. I know not many people are in here today, but a simple “yes” or “no” would work. I already have something set up…just wondering how much participation I would have.
Scott Coleman - March 13, 2010
sure
sounds good
bighop - March 13, 2010
yes
JKowalek - March 13, 2010
Wrong spot to put this mvhsbball
I think it will definitely be a hit.
JKowalek - March 13, 2010
Ya, there wasn’t really any other thread. I’ll have the fanpost up with all the info in a little.
Scott Coleman - March 13, 2010 via mobile
Clevlen…..K…2 out Freeman at the plate
bighop - March 13, 2010
rolled to the pitcher, game over
bighop - March 13, 2010
Freeman makes our last out.
HEYJUDE - March 13, 2010
Was at today's game.
A shame we lost, but got to see Haymaker Heyward knock a few out during BP. Lots of fun w/ my younger son despite the loss.
