Month: April 1998

April 30, 1998

4/30/98: If you missed it, the Red Sox sent Steve Avery to AAA Pawtucket to make room for a young pitcher, Robinson Checo. Steve’s been really bad as a Sock, even worse than in his last Atlanta year. I was … Finish Reading

April 27, 1998

4/27/98: I’ve been away a little while. Anyway, the weekend was basically a disaster for the Braves, as Millwood and Maddux got beaten up by the Rockies. Neagle didn’t look so hot on Friday, either, and he’s looked bad most … Finish Reading

April 23, 1998

4/23/98: A secondhand-type rumor I’ve heard has the Braves dealing Kevin Millwood to the Indians for David Justice. I doubt that there’s anything to it, but if there is, it’s an awful move. The Braves don’t have another starter candidate … Finish Reading

April 21, 1998

4/21/98: Some people in The Media have been talking about Greg Maddux’s “poor” performance last night in Pitcher’s Hell — eight innings, five runs, four earned. That’s actually a good performance, it should be remembered. It should have been even … Finish Reading

April 20, 1998

4/20/98: Dennis Martinez got blasted yesterday. I’m not willing to totally write a pitcher off on the basis of a Coors Field appearance, but he hasn’t really pitched well except maybe in his first start. He looks like he’s throwing … Finish Reading

April 19, 1998

4/19/98: The Rockies and Braves are playing one of those godawful day/night doubleheaders, not a “doubleheader” in any real sense of the term, since they charge separate admission. Way to bring the fans back, boys. The worst part is that … Finish Reading

April 17, 1998

4/17/98: Galarraga was OK, and played yesterday. The Braves actually had their favored lineup on the field, for probably the first time since opening day. Smoltz pitched well, but I thought his control was a little off. He threw 75 … Finish Reading

April 16, 1998

4/16/98: The injury plague continues, as Andres Galarraga was hit on the knee with a pitch yesterday; he is listed as day-to-day. Without him, the offense is hurt a little, but the outfield defense will be better with Klesko at … Finish Reading

April 14, 1998

4/14/98: Keith Lockhart is back in the lineup tonight, joining Weiss who got back over the weekend. It really does look like Lockhart will play as much as he is capable of against righthanded pitching for now. Meanwhile, Michael Tucker … Finish Reading

April 11, 1998

4/11/98: Oops. Turns out it’s RAY Holbert, not Aaron (I believe that they’re brothers), who was called up by the Braves. That’ll teach me to believe the first thing I read. Ray was with the Padres system for many years, … Finish Reading
