    Re #122; Of course, in this case, it absolutely was for the betterment of the team.

    Bub, I’d rather do Minor and Dunn for Willingham. Maybe you don’t think they’ll accept a non-MLB starter?

    Braves lineup: 1. Prado 2B 2. Heyward RF 3. Jones 3B 4. McCann C 5. Hinske LF 6. Glaus 1B 7. Gonzalez SS, 8. Cabrera CF 9. Hudson P

    Willingham is not suiting up for tonight’s game …

    Anne Says:

    Fellas – I finally listened to this week’s show. I have so many offline comments…I’ll make them offline.

    I have a good feeling about tonight’s game. …and by “good” I mean: I predict a win.

    Mara Wanna Says:

    Steve, what does that mean? Forgive the chick question.

    Anne Says:

    Girl guess: They’re trading him…or he’s injured or otherwise not playing tonight.

    Curt Says:

    I haven’t read that he’s hurt. Might be getting moved.

    Curt Says:

    FOX Sports’ Ken Rosenthal says the Phillies have the general parameters of a deal agreed to for Roy Oswalt. The only problem? Philadelphia is not sure it wants to do the deal. The farm system would be even more depleted, as prospects along with J.A. Happ would be sent off to Houston. In addition, Philly has one of the largest payrolls in the game and that’s not changing anytime soon. Oswalt would add to that, especially with a 2012 option for $16 million that the righty wants picked up.

    I count 25-19 as the Braves record when Omar Infante starts. I thought it would be higher.

    Bubdylan Says:

    Augh, stupid leftover lame name.

    Nate Says:

    Bub, wow. I thought it would have been higher, too. Thanks for doing it.

    Bubdylan Says:

    Willingham jammed his ankle on a base steal, reportedly. So, probably nothing there. :(

    Nate Says:

    I’ve got the Elton John song “Levon” stuck in my head.

    Nate Says:

    A RUN! Aw, Thanks Grandpa!

    Nate Says:

    Manbeast awareness.

    Mara Wanna Says:

    Bub, I liked your name but I guess the baseball gods didn’t agree so I’m glad you changed it back. Anne, I got home from our summer long excursion and found one fantastic piece of mail. Thanks a billion trillion!

    Did you guys hear about this?

    Bubdylan Says:

    Yuck. Rookie Dominic Brown belts an RBI double for his first major league at bat, giving hte Phils an early lead. We’ll be very lucky if his promotion doesn’t spark a big run for the Phightin’s.

    Bubdylan Says:

    In funnier news, Santana got out of a bases loaded, 2 out jam with Pujols at the plate in the first inning… after giving up 6 runs.

    Anne Says:

    “Mara” – happy to hear you got mail!!

    Bubdylan Says:

    Jeff Francoeur just walked on 4 pitches. WHAT is going on?

  22. 147
    Mara Wanna Says:

    You know Frenchy homered last night. The world has gone topsy turvey!

  23. 148
    Anne Says:

    Didn’t he start to do well just before we traded him? I might be remembering that incorrectly…

  24. 149
    Bubdylan Says:

    Prado + Heward = offense.

  25. 150
    Bubdylan Says:

    *or Heyward.
