He's had a good run, but it's time to go. He tends to stick with pinch hitters who never get hits, and stick with closers who never close.

He is good at getting tossed though, that's always good for some fun at the ole ballpark.

It is not ALL his fault. Look at the sorry teams Braves management have put together the last 8 or so years. Pitchers in wheelchairs (or high chairs), no closers, no more than 3 hitters, no speed on the base paths. The Braves are notorious for hiring frail multi-million dollar pitchers. Walk by them in the dugout and fart, and they are out for the season, and part of next season.

I can imagine he is tired of the lack of talent...

Who are the Braves grooming to replace #6?? Or will they go outside the organization?

Maybe Fredi Gonzalez?

Daily Horoscope for December 22

Leo

If you ask someone to give you a hand today, don't be surprised if they make a mess of it. That's probably because their mind isn't on the job, but it might also be because your instructions aren't as clear as usual. So before you get angry, check that what you said made sense. Relations with someone older or more influential than you could also be blighted by confusion or doubt now.
