We’ve been whispering about it for more than a year now in this dark corner, but with the Miller-for-Inciarte/Swanson/Blair trade it’s actually, unquestionably the move for the Braves to make now—if they can swing it:
Outbid the … Finish Reading

We aren’t the Champions! (Many join the humble vanquished Chukchi people).
We got ass whooped,
time after time.
Fans have been sentenced,
But committed no crimes.
Rangers and Dodgers,

THE MILLERS TALE… Sir Shelby, art thou smiling therre belowe?

Marlins 9, Braves 5 (by coop)
The Braves lost yet another game. They still have a chance to lose 100 and an outside chance to secure the number one draft slot for 2016. Therefore, almost everything but not all was lost.
On a happier note, my … Finish Reading
