I'm not sold that Harris is starting Opening Day. I think giving the job to Bernadina is a better call. Maybe they think it's safer to keep the OD pressure off of him, but damn it, just let one guy have a chance to take the job.

Riggs said Harris is starting opening day. I'd be shocked if he wasn't.

yeah and from what Harris has done this spring he deserves the job.  I'm confident in Harris glove out there, and while he won't put up the power numbers as other RFers, hopefully his average is suffice.

I'm pretty sure Riggleman said "if the season were starting today I would have Willie Harris start" and Bill Ladson just misquoted him.

Damn, this is cryptic. Lodson had started writing really well for a while, but I think the stress of cranking so much out for ST has brough the quality down.

haha yeah.  I wouldn't be surprised if Bernadina gets a roster spot, he's had a pretty good spring, but I don't know if I like the idea of him starting.

But it was clear that just because a he started opening day did not mean he was going to be the regular RFer. If Harris is in the mix to be in RF, a plattoon situation makes more sense.

These Braves announcers are idiots. Do they actually think the beer guy yelling is an umpire?

Hinske cannot be a starting 1B, can he?

He's terrible.

They killed me at the beginning when they introduced Desmond as the guy who would be backing up Guzman this season. Wrong on all levels.
