Franklin was actually added to the Braves bullpen. This of course will lead to his eventual release, but for now, good times in the Franklin household.
Don't remember him getting a hit but i know he can spray liners around. Smart player too
DL’d C Tyler Flowers.
Mr Flowers just got himself a 50 game steroid suspension...i believe thats what hes doing instead of being injured
-- MWE
HAHAHAHA....OWCH
Actually even scarier is that with Shiell banished and Horacio and Thomson hurt Franklin might gert a chance to start in Atlanta...ugh. And this after pitching exclusively in relief in AAA
Hes actually been very good out of the pen for Richmond...but that doesnt change the fact that hes WAYNE FRANKLIN.
Pity Lerew regressed...we could've used him this year
From what I can tell, she raised a pretty good son.
