I have some inside information that the Braves are bringing back Dan Kolb to play third.Most people don't know this but he played at lot of third base for the Daytona Cubs minor league team when I lived in Daytona Beach.

They _are_ better, but not _that_ better. FWIW - WAR ranking Johnson 6.1 Halladay 5.7 Wainwright 5.6 Jimenez 5.0 Hudson 5.0 The next is Livan Hernandez (!) with 3.9, so the top 5 is separated from the rest. If Wainwright is close enough to Johnson, then Hudson is close enough to Wainwright. All of them should be in running. Even good ol' W/L record (OK, I know it's meaningless, but the voters don't - at least not all of them) shows similar story: Wainwright 17-6 (.739) Hudson 13-5 (.722) Johnson 10-4 (.714) And where is Halladay? He has ungodly 168:22 SO:BB ratio, the most complete games (8), the most shutouts (3), the most IP (185).

He's consistently gotten on base all year, and he's been hitting lately when others have not. He's had a 907 OPS since June 15, carrying the load since Glaus stopped hitting. It's not undoable for the Braves to overcome this, but they desperately need offense from 1B and CF, neither of which appear likely right now. Colin
