    Atlanta Braves fan thread.

    I'm going to start this thread to post Atlanta Braves news and results. Hopefully there are some fellow Braves fans that can add to the discussion. I was expecting this to be a rough year but not this rough. Braves currently have the worst record in Major League Baseball at 8-25. They've been...

    Chipper Jones to retire

    Chipper Jones, Atlanta Braves, has announced he will retire at seasons end. He will likely go down as one of the best catchers in MLB history. Thoughts?

    Braves trade Lowe to Indians

    The Atlanta Braves traded pitcher Derek Lowe to the Cleveland Indians for a minor leaguer. General manager Chris Antonetti said that the 15-year veteran will be a starter next year immediately. Good move by the Indians, pretty low-risk.

    Jeff Francoeur: Spectacular Robbery Catch

    Jeff Francoeur plays for the Kansas City Royals, and this happened back on like September 9th, so it's kind of unimportant with the playoffs going on. I felt like creating a thread about it anyways, as Jeff Francoeur is a player I have always liked, I was mad when the Braves traded him. This is...

    How it all went down

    Well the Red Sox, Rays, Braves, Cardinals, Tigers, and Rangers all had playoff implications going yesterday on the last day of the regular season. I never thought game 162 would mean so much for one season in the MLB. It was probably the most exciting night of MLB baseball in a long time. So...

    What a Year!

    Even if you just take the last month in the MLB it has been greatness. Boston who was 9 games up in the wild card at the beginning of the month is suddenly tied with the Rays. The same has happened in the NL. The Yankees and Phillies run away with home field advantage but it's a fight to the...

    Poll of the Week #3 So this week, Carlos Zambrano of the Chicago Cubs got ejected in the Cubs/Braves game. He left the dugout, and went straight to his locker, and took all his stuff and left. He told an assistant that he was retiring and left the stadium. This is terrible. He quit on his team...

    Dan Uggla hitting streak.

    Braves 2nd basemen, Dan Uggla, currently has a 32 game hitting streak. Uggla's streak, started on July 5th, is the longest streak in the league so far this year. Tommy Holmes holds the Braves record with a 37 game hitting streak as a member of the Boston Braves in 1945.

    I recently heard that the Pirates will play on National TV Monday against the Braves, this is the first time they have been on National TV since 1997, what do you think of this? Edit: I just remembered they did play last year, but that should be an exception because it was Steven Strasburg's...
