Mazzone betrays Braves, joins Baltimore

[General]

According to FOXSports.com's Ken Rosenthal, Braves pitching coach Leo Mazzone is leaving Atlanta for Baltimore.
Mazzone is expected to receive a three-year contract to join his good friend Sam Perlozzo in Baltimore. If true, this could have a bigger impact on the team's future than anything else the Orioles do this winter.

Well, if Leo doesn't want to be the Braves pitching coach and wants to join his friend Perlozzo, then so be it. He has earned the right to do that, through his dedication to the Braves for over 15 years. Look for Guy Hansen or Del Canton to replace him. I'd love to have Don Sutton, but I doubt it. Orel Hersheisher maybe?

At least the Braves won't have to worry about choking in the playoffs anymore.

Baltimore will still suck. They'll probably fire him mid way through his second season.

I look at number of World Championships.

Game.

My opinion is that the Braves franchise is not a very good one. Nothing will change my opinion on that and I will continue to state my opinion on that issue.

Yes, indeed.

A's: 9 World Series Championships

Blah blah blah. And I think your Reds suck big giant donkey balls, and your entire management are douchebags, but I don't go parading that in the Reds forum, do I?

Actually, you and many others come into the Reds forum making fun of the team and making many posts(Mainly because our forum has so much more activity than the others)

[General]

Show me some posts.

[CincyRedsFan30]

Yes, indeed.

I wasn't referring to the A's. I was referring to the Braves, which is what this thread is about.

The only teams that can "talk" about the Reds are the Yankees, A's, Red Sox, Dodgers and Cards. No one else has won more World Championships.
