All I'll say is that playing in that field can kill your confidence...and that's a decent part of the game

What the heck is this? No Pete? No Skip on the majority of the broadcasts? I've listened to them for 35 years and now TBS drops em?

----------------------

TBS announces change: Skip Caray and Pete Van Wieren, who have been broadcasting Braves games since 1976, will not be a part of the TBS broadcasting crew this season.

Former Major Leaguers Don Sutton and Joe Simpson, who have teamed with Caray and Van Wieren in the past, will call all 90 games on the MLB on TBS package .

Caray and Van Wieren will serve as a broadcast team on the 36 games that Turner South will air, and the two will continue their radio duties on News/Talk 750 WSB and its affiliates.

And it looks like Cox is going to start the season with Vinny at 3rd. All .180 spring batting average Vinny.

The Braves need Derosa there for offense. Their run production was far better last year when Derosa was setting the table for the power guys.

With Vinny you get more power and better defense, but bases empty solo home runs don't win games.

Getting on base in front of the power hitters does. The Braves need one more table setter and one less power hitter for the maximum run scoring equation.

Game 1.

Swinging for the fences. Swinging at first pitch. No magic 3 run homers.

E-5. Why is Castilla playing 3rd?

sLopez. He should change his uniform number to 6-4-3.

Only good thing is the game is on TurnerSouth and Skip and Pete are the announcers.
