SW4A Preview - 2009

Hey....I give you an A+ for effort

 

Biased Poll Numbers ?????

Ok Braves I have been on reading TBR for 3 yrs and I have seen these polls before but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to Vote for these polls. I think Providence has it this year. Their only short fall maybe pitching.

 

Don't worry ChltBballfan...I voted for you.

right under the poll should be an icon "Vote Now", but it only let's me vote once...Hmmph

 

ChltBballfan, they have 3 really good pitchers. Richie, Kurt, and Alex Askey. I'm not sure who Providence has in relief, but that's a pretty good starting three.

 

...all 3 are very impressive and Alex Askey is one of the most underrated in the city

 

Zach McKelvey & Kyle Kessler (both are 2010)and Eric Dirkschneider (2011). All three played this summer and fall with the SC Cougars.

 

SW4A

I forgot about Alex, I may have to resend my statemant then. Dawgswood, it looks as though everone else is showing AK luv.
AK and Providence both look strong, but AK lost a great team leader when Darnell graduated. It will be interesting to see who steps up. Providence does have 3 great starters but someone will have to step up and give them some good innings in relief. If I know Coach Hignight he is probably molding some young arm to be the next Roger Clemmons, (ok maybe bad example..... Randy Johnson). Braves I don't remember voting???? Then again my memory is not what it was 20 yrs ago. I guess I killed to many brain cell in college.

 

...or Puerto Rico

At the bottom of the poll it will say if you voted

 

I'm hopeful that McClintock and Hurst (both 2010s) will play substantial roles on the mound for Providence (buds of my son and mates at On Deck).

 

Brain Cells

No Braves , I did not kill any brain cells in Puerto Rico,( well maybe a couple of hundred........ free "RED STRIPE" at the Embassy Suites from 4 - 7PM ...... PRICELESS).
