Greater Atlanta Area First Bapist Church Softball Team
That is the name I have given the Braves for the upcoming Season. Similar to how I call the Redskins the JV Team. The Braves will also be known as the B Squad, Third Place, The Worst of the East,GAAFBCST and Los Losers.
On Monday at 3:05 PM my boys in red will charge the field to begin their season. It will be a season of triumph. There will be many tears shed by the fans of the Greater Atlanta Area First Bapist Church Softball Team. Los Losers season of pain and anguish is about to begin. Aaron I give you a chance to repent your sins. In your haze you have actually turned to comparing pre-season stats. How can you lean on those. If that is all you have going for you then I feel very sorry for you and The Worst of the East. You can be a Phillies fan right here and now. No questions asked. We as the Phillies congregation will gladly accept you as our wayward son. We won't hold your years of supporting the B Squad against you. Come see the light brother. Seek Salvation!!! Cast off the restraints of Ted Turner!!!! Come see how it is to be part of a brotherhood!!!! A brotherhood of wins, celebration and MVP'S. There's a whole ocean of wins under our feet and nobody can get at it except Phillies fans. We are waiting to accept you.
Fuck the Braves. It's Utley time.

If their is any problems with that let me know, I will be sending you all a spreadsheet that has it listed out better then that.
As far as the draft goes, it really doesn't matter. I hear Duke might be on TV on Sunday...so Fletcher would want to do it afterwards...or we could do the draft off line throughout the day. We can set the live draft for whaterver time we want whenever we want.

Final draft questions
I have a few questions to tie up some loose ends before the draft this Sunday.
1. Can we get a final official list of all of the keepers so they can be added to everyones "do not draft" list?
2. What time on Sunday is the draft?
Thanks, and good luck to everyone on the upcoming season.

Let the Smack Talk Continue
Ok I know its just spring training...but my boys in Atlanta are backing up what im saying with what there doin. Check out the current Grapefruit League standings.
GRAPEFRUIT W L GB RS RA Diff
Tampa Bay 7 3 -- 66 54 12
Minnesota 8 4 -- 68 55 13
NY Mets 8 4 -- 45 47 -2
Atlanta 8 5 .5 81 61 20
Detroit 8 5 .5 73 59 14
Florida 9 6 .5 74 58 16
NY Yankees 5 4 1.5 54 52 2
Baltimore 6 5 1.5 71 64 7
Cincinnati 7 6 1.5 88 90 -2
Cleveland 6 6 2.0 70 66 4
LA Dodgers 6 6 2.0 71 57 14
Washington 6 7 2.5 67 62 5
Houston 6 8 3.0 78 95 -17
St. Louis 5 8 3.5 55 76 -21
Pittsburgh 4 8 4.0 76 79 -3
Toronto 4 8 4.0 42 48 -6
Philadelphia 4 9 4.5 60 91 -31
Boston 3 8 4.5 43 68 -25
So the only team to score more runs so far than the braves is the Reds. But the reds have also allowed more runs than they have scored so it doesnt matter. The Braves however have a 20+ run differential, the best in the league. Now take a look at the teams in bold to see how we shape up against the rest of the Division. Florida is the closest with 16+ followed by the Nats at 5+. Now look at the two teams with better pre-season accolades than ¡Los Bravos!. The mets are -2 and the Philbo's are a pitiful -31. I dont know what the better stat is, that the braves are +20 or that the Phillies are -31.
Once again i know this is just spring training, and the mets have had some injuries that have made the mets games farm hand harvests, but -31, for the team with the most NL MVPs/Capita. Sucks.
