Yep. I don't know if he has been hitting. But, he has been one of the only consistently "untouchable" prospects in the Braves' system.

.280 at AA this year so far. Seems like he's an avg. hitter, but great defender. I guess best-case scenario Yadier, worst case Eddie Perez? Haha

I also remember paying Chipper $14Mil for half a season of excellent baseball. It cuts both ways.

I suspect the DL is going to be in the NL eventually. If that happens during the offseason, the Braves could push for BMac. Otherwise, I don't see it happening. He'll go to Boston or (so help me) the Yankees for a Brazilian dollars to be a C/DH combo

I suspect the DH is going to be in the NL eventually, as well.

Do you? I just don't see it happening. I don't see the need for it. People always talk about the AL being the offensive dominate league and then lately when we get to October the NL takes the trophy

Wish golf would see that it's OK to have different rules within a sport. And this one isn't even an amateur-pro thing.

I think it needs to happen one way or the other. Either everyone does it or no one does. Too much interleague play now to have differing rules.

That's my point. When it was set for a certain part of the season, and everyone did it at the same time, DH/No DH was fine. Now that it's random weeks, it just gets annoying.

Advantage NL come series time. Their pitchers are use to at bats during the regular season, AL not so much and the DH has to sit in those games (usually someone that was brought in and specializes in hitting). I do think it is much harder for an AL team to adjust to the NL game rather than vise versa. AL managers as well.
 
Balfour goes to the middle of his hat before every pitch...wear on the outside and looked like something on the inside...hmm
 
Arod getting 214 game suspension according to foxsports

Yea but that ump had no right being that close to his throwing line, but you have a point. Our infield loves making bonehead errors and dropping easy balls and making things way too close
