The Braves have released lefty Eric O’Flaherty, per a club announcement. He had been on the 10-day DL.
A roster spot was needed so that catcher Anthony Recker could be brought up. Kurt Suzuki is on the bereavement list, creating the need for another backstop.
The 32-year-old O’Flaherty has continued to find work over the past several seasons, but hasn’t really been the same since undergoing Tommy John surgery in 2013. In 18 1/3 innings this season, he struggled to a 7.85 ERA with 7.4 K/9 and 4.4 BB/9.
what five years ago
I remember when this dude yelled to the north and to the south and thee west and the east he was a BEAST
Where are all the braves fans laying claim for him before hey read it?
Good. Now like I said the other day get rid of Krol
you gotta pay the Krol toll to get into…
I like this guy- been seeing him a lot today. Keep at it, you make these threads enjoyable.
You seem like a master of karate and friendship for everyone.
I like boys holes as much as the next
……and that was the last we ever heard from Ungerdog. -The End-
Yeah Krol is a regular fireman. He pours gasoline on everything.
Can someone tell me what the bereavement list is?
When somebody dies in your family and you get leave so you can attend the funeral/mourn, generally.
Up to 3 days/games, IIRC
Its when a family member dies you are given time off
No. That’s the restricted list. The Breavement list is when there’s a sudden, unexpected injury, not baseball related. It’s named after the infamous Earl Weaver incident when he was bit by a beaver. Hope this helps.
this is the best answer I’ve ever heard
I bet that hurt if it’s true
Cringy af. You must be a hit at open mic nights.
Between him Romo and Ramirez some quality relief pitching just hit the open market. Washington needs to move in on these guys.
Romo suc……you know what nvm Romo was lights out.. go ahead and have Washington sign him plz .. thanks
I think your confusing Romo with Brian Wilson.. now Wilson he was bad
watch the Twins pick up another struggling braves pithcher
Article fails to mention that as of today Eric O’Flaherty is fully vested. Nice gesture by Atlanta to allow him to get there before they released him.
Meanwhile in Washington?
