    Bobby wouldn't let them fire him. But now Bobby doesn't have much say so as he used to and they are trying to phase him out to pasture. Losing Winkler today really hurts. But this is what you get when you get a bunch of guys who are coming off TJ surgery; like they did last year. One of the main problems for the braves is that they are still suffering from Wrens payroll. Next year the team will have more money to spend. Hopefully they will spend it wisely. I earlier said 60 wins; they will be lucky to win that much.

    Suggestions trickling out that they suspect the pitching coach's insistence on setting up on the glove side.of the rubber adds stress to the elbow from a more difficult follow through. Will be interesting to see if that goes away or he does.

    Braves grab a 2-0 lead in the top of the first. Braves give up 3 in the bottom of the first. We should probably start betting on how long it'll be before the Braves get their first W.

    And as I type, Markakis doubles home two. Mallex Smith gets his first hit and first run scored in the bigs. Scored from first rather easily on that hit.

    just something i read. from what i gather some think the follow through from that point requires you to go all the way across your body, so that puts more stress on the elbow than if it was a more "vertical" release and follow through. but setting up at that point gives the pitch a less hittable path through the strike zone.
