Atlanta Braves Thread (I HURT MYSELF TODAY TO SEE IF I STILL FEEL)

[GAVol]

Seems like somebody else had 17 in the 90's but I can't remember who.

 

[Scotty's Flat Top]

We still got big MVP Matt Kemp tho

My beef with him has always been his health. Nothing else. He has been awesome for us, but he is due. Not hating, just facts. Hopefully he is back tomorrow and I'm ultimately wrong.

 

[NochNoch]

I think Mark Lemke was 17 too.

Gotta wait a few more versions for the Lemer to get his, he was 20. Unless he had multiple throughout his tenure.

Yeah, I went back and edited that. I swear somebody else wore 17 though.

Well maybe not, idkwtf that list was, supposedly Atlanta Braves #17's. Doesn't look like it though.


Edit: Nevermind, does look legit.

Bautista in the mid 90's actually looks right.

Why does it appear they semi retired it after that though? Big gap after he had it.

Also, wow, haven't thought of the name Luis Polonia in a veeeeeery long time.

I don't know, does seem odd. Here's a link if you wanna travel down memory road.

Ahhh, Nick Esasky.... Worst luck on a free agent signing in the history of the world.

 

[Regulator]

This will be the 17th

Luis Polonia?

Edit: In before I flipped the page and saw the list.

Small sample size, but Demeritte hasn't struck out as much in these first few games as one would expect.

3/4 BB/K; something to watch

Even if he is just a power bat/utility guy off the bench that was a steal of a deal.

Dem won't be up a while but I could see him giving Austin Riley a run for 3rd or using him to back up 3rd/2nd with Ozzie backing up Swanson at SS. Could probably play both corner OF slots as well if needed.

 

[TBrown]

We comin

The Father's Day Braves uni is 🔥🔥🔥

2020 Braves 3B on opening day...Rio or Riley?

Rio. Riley won't ever be able to cut down the K's enough IMO

Neither

 

[zjcvols]

Neither

You are right. Kevin Maitan.

 

[AV_12]

[AV_12]

Should have signed Melvin Upton if we are going to have to trot Bonifacio out there
