Get your rest boys and get up there and fuck up the Natinals tomorrow.
Ladies and Gentlemen, your new starting shortstop, Andrelton Simmons.
Goggle Power.

The goggles work. Carry on, FYB
Joining the Chris Sabos and Keith Millers of the world comes Freddie Freeman.
With the addition of the goggles, Freeman found that he could balance his checkbook with greater ease, discuss the rhetorical strategies employed by Melville, and appreciate the musical work of Kraftwerk. He also couldn’t find a date to prom.

Not only was Kris Medlen sent down to AAA today to prepare to join the rotation (Yeah…what?) but Freddie Freeman’s prescription goggles are expected to arrive today.
Prescription. Goggles.
Guys…this is going to be the greatest thing since early 90’s Chris Sabo (see below):
And an honorable mention to Horace Grant…who I used to imitate at the Carroll Rec Center…come on…I just got done swimming, it was just good prop utilization!
Slump. Busted.
Medlen to Gwinnett to ready himself to join the rotation.
Freddie’s prescription goggles to arrive this moring.
All good things, but…
My Mother clearly never witnessed an 8-game losing streak.
If you’re not enjoying this even a little bit.
Sincerely,
JFC
Chipper Jones 1990, Atlanta Braves Shortstop, Bolles School
The Braves wanted to draft pitcher Todd Van Poppel with the first overall pick, but Van Poppel stated that he would not sign with the team. Lucky break. Instead, the Braves received one of the most consistent offensive forces of this generation. Over his first 18 seasons, Larry Wayne Jones has totaled 459 homers and 1,585 RBIs to go along with a .304 batting average. He won the National League MVP in 1999 — smacking a career-high 45 homers — and a batting title in 2008 with a .364 average. He has announced his plans to retire at the end of the 2012 season.
