Pickoff Moves
LaRoche Bloggeth
Andy LaRoche, blogger? Now they have to be dragooning the minor leaguers.Scratch The Rookie Excuse
Jim Tracy, grinding the gears in his defective memory:"We have 14 rookies out of 32 active players in there ... I can't remember a team that was playing in October that had that many rookies."Well, let me introduce you to this team called the Atlanta Braves, with a roster containing thirteen rookies. There are good farm systems, and there are great farm systems.
| Player | Year Drafted |
|---|---|
| Blaine Boyer | 2000 |
| Kyle Davies | 2001 |
| Joey Devine | 2005 |
| Jeff Francoeur | 2002 |
| Chuck James | 2002 |
| Kelly Johnson | 2000 |
| Ryan Langerhans | 1998 |
| Anthony Lerew | 2001 |
| Andy Marte | 2000 |
| Macay McBride | 2001 |
| Brian McCann | 2002 |
| Pete Orr | 1997 |
| Brayan Pena | 2000 |
