The Braves purchased Brian Lawrence’s contract from the Camden Riversharks (IND) and assigned him to AAA.

All I have to say is that was an epic disection of the draft. Great job!

Haha I love fielding metrics…

I’m actually a fan of P-Mac, but how in the world did he come up as the best defensive LF in baseball based on UZR? Also, Brian Giles is #2 in RF. I wonder how much the thick air at Petco and Chris Young’s ability to draw easy fly outs helps each of their zone ratings.

Ha and none other than Jim Edmonds is the worst rated CF

#23@Zagz: I'm actually catching a flight Tuesday evening to catch Wednesday's and Thursday's games. Depending on how the rotation shakes out with Jake's return and the Hall of Fame Game next week, I'm hoping that Peavy pitches in one of the two.

#22@Zagz: Also I know you didn't censor it Tom, I think the auto censor is a little too tight. Anyone else heading to NY to see the Padres at Yankee Stadium BTW?
