| Watched the game. First one I've sat downa nd watched in quite a while. The only thing I kept thinking was "unbeliveable". Strange to see Hampton pitch.

This just isn't their year. | Given how the local newspaper guys (O'Brien, Schultz) have turned on Teixiera for not being an "impact player" and a "difference maker," I can't believe what a pass Chipper gets for being out so much with all his little aches and pains. He's not usually hurt badly enough to actually go on the DL, of course; he'd rather just sit there and soak up a roster spot while missing a week at a time. But yet the local media acts like Teixeira's the one going through the motions, while Jones is the one sitting on the bench while the Braves' season comes to a early close.
Games played so far, out of 104: Teixeira 102, Chipper 89, and it sure seems like every time there's been a critical division series, Chipper's been out because he strained something. If I could only have one of the the two of them back next year, it sure as heck wouldn't be Chipper Jones. | |
