So Long Brooks Conrad and Thanks for the Memories
The Atlanta Braves announced yesterday they non-tendered Brooks Conrad. While the moved surprised me, I’ll admit that it makes sense. Doesn’t mean I have to like it and it doesn’t mean I won’t miss seeing Brooks in the on-deck circle in the bottom of the ninth, getting ready to bat by rubbing the dirt from the field on his hands. There’s a story to my family’s affection...

Braves Bid Adieu to Brooks Conrad
A slight oversight on my part, but the Atlanta Braves also bid farewell to Brooks Conrad. He was beloved by teammates for his “raw dogging”, which meant that he played with no batting gloves. He had some of the best pinch-hit moments over the past 2 seasons and was one of their best pinch-hitters altogether. He never seemed to escape his defensive collapse when he...

Braves non-tender Conrad, Moylan
The Atlanta Braves will not offer arbitration to reliever Peter Moylan and pinch-hitter Brooks Conrad, non-tendering both of them and allowing them to become free agents.
Moylan and Conrad are free to talk with other clubs, which also leaves the door open to their returning to the club.
Both were important role players and popular players within the clubhouse but both also endured...

Braves: Conrad, Proctor, Mather out of options
Newly anointed Baseball Prospectus author R.J. Anderson put an interesting piece out yesterday on players who are out of options. The Braves have three players on their 40 man roster who are currently out of options: Brooks Conrad, Scott Proctor, and Joe Mather.
Basically, the upshot is that if they don't make the 25 man major league roster for opening day, they will be placed on waivers.

Quit Blaming Conrad For It All
I have never left Turner Field feeling the way I did last night, and hopefully I never will again.

Now, cue the internet fury.
Sunday night closed with “Brooks Conrad” as the second-most searched phrase on Google. That’s right. Higher...

Brooks Conrad Commits Three Errors Costing Braves in Game 3 Against Giants
Brooks Conrad was somewhat of a novelty for the Atlanta Braves this year. The 30-year-old backup infielder saw plenty of action with Chipper Jones in and out of the lineup and he got a starting spot when Martin Prado was knocked out for the year with an oblique injury. Of the eight home runs he hit this season, seven came in the 7th inning or later and plenty were walk-off winners...
