    Braves 2010 NL Wild Card Winner!!

    The Braves have won the 2010 Wild Card in a down to the wire finish. They won 8-7 on the last day of the year and then went immediately to their TVs to watch the Padres lose to the Giants. Break out the champagne. Bobby Cox will end his career in October and I only find it fitting. People like to say he is overrated because of the Braves lack of success when they do get to October but **** that noise. He helped turn the Blue Jays around in the '80's and did the same with the Braves. Only thing that really sucks is Chipper is not going to be able to play for Bobby. Braves are hurting and will now face one tough Giants team. Great season for the Braves nonetheless!! Congrats to the Braves and Bobby!

    Oh yeah. Now they head to SF to beat the Giants. J Hey should be ROY over Posey BTW. I hope I can get to Atlanta this Sunday for Game 3.

    The ultimate test of where Kingdom_of_Zito's loyalty lies: with his Braves or with Barry Zito and Tim Lincecun't?

    I think Posey sealed it up today with his HR.

    Posey should be ROY, no doubt. Better OPS and nearly caught Heyward in hits, HRs, and RBIs. And Heyward had 100+ more ABs than Posey.
