Top 10 things Braves bloggers would do to ruin the Braves, if they had any say

(note: every single move listed here has seriously been put forth at some point or another on the AJC Braves blogs)

10) Trade Kelly Johnson for a middle reliever.

9) Move John Smoltz back to the closer spot and trade Soriano for a middle reliever.

8) Jarrod Saltalamacchia catching, McCann playing first base, Chipper playing first base, Escobar playing third, Joe Borchard playing RF, Martin Prado playing 2nd, Jeff Francoeur playing center, Charlie Morton SP, Brent Lillibridge playing SS, Jordan Scaeffer CF. Seems like the only guy they would leave alone would be Matt Diaz, Josh Anderson is on the team for pinch running duties.

7) All Relief pitchers would pitch two innings, except the closer.

6) Don't trade Renteria (oh wait, now that was a brilliant move they liked all along)

5) Don't trade for Tex (salty will be better this year! and elvis is our SS of the future, wait, that's brent lillibridge, wait that's escobar, can't we just play 3 SS's?)

4) Hudson pitches on 3 days rest, Glavine and Smoltz on 6 days rest, Chuck James on 5.5 days rest, Jurjjens on 3 days rest, Hampton 2 starts per month, Jeff Bennett 1 start per week.

3) Hitters take until they have two strikes, regardless of where the pitch is, except Kelly Johnson, he doesn't hit enough and he walks too much and his OBP is too low.

2) Have Francouer, Escobar, Kotsay, Diaz, Chipper, Prado, Josh Anderson, etc etc try to steal at least 20 bases.

1) Trade the entire Richmond Braves plus Jordan Schaeffer and Brent Lillibridge for Joe Nathan.
