Should the Braves play with eight in the field next game?

No we played one man short this week in softball and we got murdered.

I think so, leave Conrad on the bench.

You mean they aren't already.

Hahaha thanks Pavy, I needed that laugh

Brooks Conrad

Is he quite possibly the biggest choke artist alive?? How many errors would he have in the World Series? Double digit. I would make a line up of all lefties and hit ground balls to that guy all game long.

daneblazer · 10-10-10, 06:57 PM

he really has no business being in there, but with Chipper and Prado hurt he is

Pauulzcappin · 10-10-10, 07:02 PM

Guy is garbage.

Always has been.

I think I'd have done better playing there

tripleblack1705 · 10-10-10, 07:04 PM

Damn I really feel bad for the dude, hope he rebounds with a homer or 2 next game.

THEGREAT30 · 10-10-10, 07:07 PM

he didn't choke he just should not be out there. They should go with Glaus at 3rd, Bobby and Brook basically lost the series for them though

smallball · 10-10-10, 07:07 PM

I would put him on suicide watch

LordVodka · 10-10-10, 07:07 PM

Better question is why Bobby Cox left him there after so many errors.

big joe 1212 · 10-10-10, 07:09 PM

Umpire blocked his view on last error.

No excuse though! Got to make the play!

pokernut9999 · 10-10-10, 07:31 PM

Guy has been a mental case for weeks now.

nulldah · 10-10-10, 07:33 PM

well, at least the series is still not over

RudyRuetigger · 10-10-10, 07:40 PM

i was very pissed, but i feel sorry for the guy now. you can only imagine how he feels.

rm18 · 10-10-10, 07:47 PM

Why isn't he playing 3rd

BatemanPatrickl · 10-10-10, 07:49 PM

Should whatsgood5 stop being such a piece of shit stiff and pay people what he owes?

he made 1 or 2 errors there late in the season

Cuz he sucked there too so Bobby figured maybe he'd suck less at second. Hasn't worked out so well so far though

Stiff says what?

Cougar Bait · 10-10-10, 07:57 PM

Baseball is still on?

Dukebluejms · 10-10-10, 08:33 PM

He better not have a chance to redeem himself. He is definitely choking, but it is next to impossible to play field the ball when it is in your head. Take it from somone who knows, after an error you are praying for the ball to go anywhere but to you and without fails it comes right at you. This is all mental. I don't care if he is not a great player. These plays should be made by highschool players. But yes, suicide watch should be in order...

lunchbawks · 10-10-10, 09:45 PM

guy killed my play today

lunchbawks · 10-10-10, 09:51 PM

its not like he's a choke artist though.

you guys make it seem like the braves could win the WS

Jasonal_98 · 10-10-10, 11:09 PM

Cox is going to have to shuffle his lineup and get him out of the field tomorrow. Maybe put Glaus at 3rd and Infante at 2nd.

TGHMak · 10-10-10, 11:36 PM

It nice to watch the Giants and Braves take turn blowing games in the late innings.

millflavor · 10-11-10, 01:16 AM

atlanta's defensive infield was getting pounded well before the playoffs, this is no surprise and no choke. it is what it is

dodger33 · 10-11-10, 01:19 AM

Man watching the replay Conrad's corn hole was tighter than a newborn babies today.

lunchbawks · 10-11-10, 01:30 AM

atl threw the game, it wasn't obvious until conrad let the winning run go

Regul8er · 10-11-10, 07:44 AM

YUP.....I think we've seen the last of Brooks Conrad in the 2010 MLB Playoffs.
The stage is just too much for him, and he really is letting the pressure get the better of him. I hope this doesn't turn his young career into a nasty downward spiral, but unfortunately a lot of time it does. Brooks doesn't seem mentally tough, and I don't see him recovering.

Betting Guru · 10-11-10, 08:04 AM

Conrad really should not be in the Majors. He is a minor league player at best. I played with a few second baseman that would have made that play in their sleep and at worst take that ball off their chest, to keep the ball in the infield. It just goes to show that some guys that play in the Majors got lucky and had a few great games when scouts were there to watch them play. He should be at home watching baseball with us instead of wearing a uniform!

Agree he shouldn't be out there, but Glaus at third would have the same effect. Glaus can no longer field at third at a major league level.

benjy · 10-11-10, 09:24 AM

I feel for the dude. Did his view of the ball get blocked by the ump in the 9th? And the dropped pop-up should've been Heyward's ball. Not to say that I think he deserves to be in the majors - I just feel for the guy.
