Anne, start the “Let’s go Heyward” chant.
August 2nd, 2010 at 9:33 pm
I would pay serious money to hear Chip and Martin’s conversation after that homer.
August 2nd, 2010 at 9:34 pm
I just figured you were drinkin’. It’s all good. How ’bout that blast from Pappy Jones?
August 2nd, 2010 at 9:36 pm
I’m not as think as you drunk I am. Nice blast from gramps. Gonzo can not hit. What gives?
August 2nd, 2010 at 9:42 pm
Was that Ross hollering at Saito to cover 1st? I like it! I don’t like cutting to Yankee stadium for Bonus coverage. Just hit it already A-Rod.

3 is more than 2 1/2…just in case you didn’t know.
August 2nd, 2010 at 10:12 pm
3 is a magic number

Rick Ankiel, a wordsmith he is not.

“Mara” – I tried to autograph Prado’s thumb for you, but couldn’t get close enough. Really great to be home again. Go Braves!!

Slept through a good one. Fan fail.
August 3rd, 2010 at 7:34 am
Chick ? Alert. Does Martin Prado have to stay on the DL for a certain number of days? Like 15? Or can we send Diory on his merry way as soon as he’s ready? I know it’s a fracture and will probably take a long time but 15 days doesn’t so much fit with my schedule.

“Chipper’s career may be on death’s door, but he could wake up in 2027 and hit a home run off the Mets.”
I thought that was funny.

Prado’s DL stint is retroactive to 7/31. So he will have to spend 15 days, including that one, on the DL before he can play again.
August 3rd, 2010 at 8:15 am
So…he can play ON Saturday the 14th or after Saturday the 14th. I hate to split hairs but this is very important.
August 3rd, 2010 at 8:27 am
I’m afraid it’s after which makes me want to say very bad words.
August 3rd, 2010 at 10:35 am
This seems to indicate that the 15th is the first day he will be eligible.
Players are placed on either the 15-day or the 60-day disabled list, usually depending on the severity and/or recovery time of the injury. A player may be shifted from the 15-day to the 60-day DL at any time, but not vice-versa. The player may not rejoin the team until 15 or 60 days has elapsed; however, a player’s time on the DL may exceed the specified number of days, and further, if a player is transferred to the 60-day DL after August 1, he may not return to the active roster that season. The 15-day DL does not count the player on the active roster (comprising the 25-man roster until September 1), whereas the 60-day DL does not require the player to be counted on either the team’s active roster or its 40-man roster; however, a teams 40-man roster must be full in order for the option of a placement on the 60-day disabled list to be available. By placing a player on the disabled list, a spot on the active roster is made available. Another player from the minor leagues, free agent pool, a traded player, or a recovered player coming off the disabled list may be used to fill this spot. This allows a team to avoid being penalized because it avoids the disadvantage of playing with a reduced roster. Retroactive placement may be made at most 10 days after the time of injury. When a player is listed as day-to-day before being placed on the disabled list, it therefore may pinpoint the date of the injury.

Steve, “Mara” and Ballpark Frank may be the only people who care about this, but: Alan, my favorite usher of all time, has been out sick since the last homestand. I’m getting conflicting reports depending upon who I talk to, but consensus is it’s NOT good and he MIGHT be back for the next homestand (not this one). My friend Sarah and I are thinking of becoming 10-year-olds and making big signs to hold up for the TV, if he’s watching at home. All of this to say: keep Section 111 Alan in your thoughts. The Ted ain’t the same without him!
August 3rd, 2010 at 12:39 pm
(that’s section 211…not 111. Thelma, Usherette for 111 will pummel me for that)
August 3rd, 2010 at 1:04 pm
Anne, I hope he gets well soon! I’ll be sad if I miss him on the 14th. I say a definite unashamed YES to big obnoxious “Howdy Alan” signs. And, Hi to Ballpark Frank whom I have not forgiven for his lack of message board attendance.

J. Schafer on the DL with wrist inflammation.
August 3rd, 2010 at 2:58 pm
I hope he saved some of that money.
August 3rd, 2010 at 4:11 pm
Tonight’s lineup: Infante 4 Heyward 9 Chipper 5 McCann 2 Hinske 3 Gonzalez 6 Ankiel 8 Cabrera 7 Lowe 1 or Lowedemort…innings will tell
Bubalicious, d’you get your nap in today?
August 3rd, 2010 at 4:13 pm
I’m beginning to suspect J. Schafer suffers from chronic suck. Not one of Nike’s better investments. Wonder if the Hummer’s been parked…
Maybe he’ll be a dentist yet.

Yeah, Mara, and then some. I’m ALL screwed up. Don’t know what I’ll do if I don’t get it turned around before school. “25 divided by the square root of… heyward … is… feliz navidad…zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz…”

Van Morrison’s 2-disc “Greatest Hits Volume III” is the shiznit.
