To think they took Hobgood ... I can never not think of him every time I see Minor, Leake, Wheeler, etc.

Braves may send BJ Upton to the minors.

Good thing the O's didn't sign him.

 

Speaking of Upton's, the other one has prevented you from gloating about wanting him for a while.

It still boggles my mind how he got the kind of contract he did.

Ugh, that's horrible. Quite a nice career Hudson has had.

Link to a gif of the injury that you probably don't want to watch-

Ankle completely buckles

[Chris B]

That is Kevin Ware-level. Just horrible.

[mweb08]

Brutal. That really sucks.

[MKlein76]

Holy shit! That's nasty!!

[SportsGuy]

Feel bad for Atlanta...they are the third best organization in the sport IMO and have a legit WS chance...after all, they were MY preseason pick!

Now, they do have a deep staff and a MiL system that will allow them to go out and get who they want(Peavy?) but still, that sucks and what a gruesome injury for Hudson.

[Matt]

Why would they want to trade for Peavy? Beachy is coming back next week.

I didn't have much of a problem with this, I think the team Twitter wars are OK to an extent. Probably it's better to err on the side of not starting a controversy though.
