As long as I get one Braves game in, I won't feel bad using the rest of the time to see the city.


Take a water taxi from the airport to downtown Boston if you aren't renting a car. View of the skyline is a great start to the trip.

I got a buddy who has a place in the Chinatown area (south of downtown). He is letting me stay there for free since he is going to be out of town. Free = nice bottle of bourbon

Maybe that was why they let Culberson start yesterday for a goodbye? If so he sure went out on a good note.

David O'Brien @DOBrienAJC · 1h Dansby not a DL situation from all indications. Bautista might take Tucker roster spot for now, since Flaherty can also back up corner OF spots and Tucker has an option, unlike Culberson. Otherwise, Culberson would be the odd man out, has struggled (despite 2 hits Thursday) 7 2 15

I thought Culberson would be the one too (maybe he won't be long?) but the Braves instead sent down Preston Tucker to the minors: LINK

Guess they'll be using Bautista as the DH instead of Tucker now when they go that American league park for the next series after this one. Unless they put him at 3rd and would rather use Flaherty or Camargo for DH. They seem like better options as fielders to me, but what do i know?

Yeah I'm an armchair manager, but I don't see what value Culberson is brining. If there brining up Bautista then they should play him. If they're going to start him then I don't see the need for Culberson to sit the bench.

They're starting him at 3rd tonight, giving Bautista #23, and letting him hit 5th after Markakis.

The Braves' twitter is also saying... sell out!... standing room available only (btw I wish I could save that gif of Dale chopping it would be my favorite image I had, but when I hover over it no copy or saving) LINK

Seems like prevous years with Suzuki/Flowers one day then the other. I'd vote for Kurt to get more, but I don't know how much rest he needs.

Braves put Swanson on DL and changed their mind and brought Tucker back up. Seems like Swanson's injury should be affecting Culberson not Tucker... but what do i know?
