Braves vs Phillies Round 2!

Things are gonna start gettin' dirty. It's round 2!

I'm also going to try and get some of our round 1 causalities out tomorrow, but I'm not sure who/when. All I know is that Madding is gonna have to wait JUST a bit longer. I've yet to find a case thick enough for that brick of a card we puled. It's 3/8 of an inch thick. Works great as an anchor in the fish tank...

Braves Roster:

Hitters- Chipper Jones "Unique Unis" (1:6)
Adam LaRoche "Unparalleled Performances" (1:6)
Brian McCann
Yunel Escobar
Nare McLouth
Garret Anderson
Adam LaRoche
Chipper Jones
Jordan Schafer RC
Pitchers-
Tommy Hanson "Red" #/1199
Javier Vazquez "Red" #/1199
Javier Vazquez
Jair Jurrjens
Kris Medlen
Total cards (not including doubles)- 14

Phillies Roster:
Hitting- Chase Utley "Red"
Ryan Howard "Red"
Raul Ibanez
Jimmy Rollins
Ryan Howard
Jayson Werth
Chase Utley
Pitching- Cole Hamles
total cards (not including doubles)- 8

Same rosters as before, just new teams. Copy and paste and away we go!

Jordan Schafer vs Ryan Howard
There's not alot of base that could beat Howard. Pujols can, but the Cards are out already.
Braves-13 Phillies-8

Chipper Jones vs Raul Ibanez
Until Ibanez proves that he's HOF worthy, Chipper will win. If that happens though, give me a call.
Braves-13 Phillies-7

Yunel Escobar vs Chase Utley
I hate the Phillies...
Braves-12 Phillies-7

Adam LaRoche "Unparalleled Performance" vs Jimmy Rollins
I hate the Braves too...
Braves-12 Phillies-6

Adam LaRoche vs Ryan Howard "Red"
Fun fact, Adam LaRoche should be spelled "LaRoach". In my mind at least.
Braves-11 Phillies-6

Nate Mclouth vs Jayson Werth
McLouth has all but fell off the face of the earth. Dare I say the Pirates *gulp* knew what they were doing???
Braves-10 Phillies-6

Chipper Jones "Unique Unis" vs Chase Utley "Red"
Ahh, our first parallel vs insert deal. Here's the skinny, the insert falls at 1:6 or 4 per box, while the parallel is a one per pack pull. The "Unique Uni" wins off the odds.
Braves-10 Phillies-5

Garret Anderson vs Ryan Howard
I want Garret to win just once. It just... it'll make me happy.
Braves-9 Phillies-5

Brian McCann vs Chase Utley
Wow. Super close, look at the stats, they average nearly identical numbers over the course of a season. Same number of All-Star selections, same number of Silver Sluggers won. Utley's birthday is only 2 days before mine, which I don't like at all though. Anyways, I'm gonna tie this one, but the Braves have run through their stack and the Phillies batted around starting with Howard, so I'll do one more match-up to settle this...

Chipper Jones vs Ryan Howard "Red"
Ouch.
Braves-7 Phillies-5

The Phillies took it to the Braves during the hitting round. "Unfortunately" they only have Shit-for Brains Hamels for pitching. Oh I'm sorry, I meant Cole. dickhead

Javier Vazquez vs Cole Hamels
Damnit, I can't make Hamles lose here, can I?
Braves-6(4) Phillies-5(1)

Kris Medlin vs Cole Hamles
FFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUU
Braves-5(4) Phillies-5(1)

Javier Vazquez "Red" vs Cole Hamels
Done.
Braves-5(4) Phillies-4(0)

Pitching Advantage- Braves

Final Score- Braves- 5
Phillies- 3

Wow, that was a good one. The Phillies fought back from 6 cards down to tie it until the final match-up. All in all a fun one, but the evil Phillies lost. Because they're evil...

  2. Let me know if I need to throw in some extra consideration money for shipping. I'm wondering if it might be worth it to get insurance on the package or something.
