Not any young guy....Tommy Hanson...he is like Jesus but with a breaking ball, fastball, slider, change up ....... .

Do you hear that? It sounds like....

Tom Glavine was my favorite pitcher of that era, but now it's this Tom's turn. God he gives me a stiffy.

I can't wait to see him in action. I hate the Braves with a passion but I can appreciate a great pitcher. Hopefully he lives up to his hype and all indications are that he will.

Phils/Braves weekend series in Atlanta mid-late August if you are interested in a road trip Scrum.

(Braves had a nice pick up yesterday in MClouth also)

Phillies can suck my balls. When i play MLB 09 The Show i refuse to lose to the Phillies. I HATE THEM. Not as bad as the Mets though. The media slobbering on the Mets is amusing.

I bet.....being a Pirates fan has to be difficult.

My buddy who is a Brave's fan just left me a 2 minute voicemail on "Big Game Nate" and why I should fear him.

NAte's a very good player and a great player for a Pirate. This means we have traded away an outfield of McLouth, Nady and Bay in less than 12 months. Wierd part was they had resigned Nate to a long contract this off season. I would bet that Jack Wilson and Adam LaRoche are already packing because they will be next.

I do have to say that all in all this trade will make them better. The Pirates are in no way playoff bound for at least 2 more years and this move gets us a pitcher who should move up to the bigs this year and some much needed quality in the minors.

D*mn, didn't realize they moved the whole outfield till you said that. Adam LaRoche has to be catching the eye of a lot of teams. Kid has really turned it on.

Pops Stargell would be very sad to see the state of affairs in Pitt.

Braves have one too...? I was always irked the Braves got rid of Laroche. He was always a solid player and is getting better. Braves need to do something to keep up with the Phillies though.
