(That's how I pronounce the braves)
The Nats kick off the season at Atlanta tomorrow. I just happen to be working in the Atl this past week.
I'm tempted to wear my Marlins shirt, jersey, and hat and go to the game and heckle all of them. But alas, I won't.

And yes we use Barves in DC also.

(39,360 posts)3. Aside from them being competition in the NL East...
I'm not a fan of Bryce Harper (polite understatement). Plus up until this year, the baseball press drools over them as though they are the best thing since sliced bread. (This year their Met worship has been nauseating).

You would love Bryce in Miami, cocky yes, but what a ballplayer.
