Update: Autocorrect sucks. Thanks Chipper.
Despite having homered in his previous at bat, Andruw was pulled from last night's game in the 6th inning when the braves batted around. The explanation given today was that Druw had a "right quad injury" but he'd play today. I don't buy that for a second. I saw him sitting in the dugout with his batting gloves on chatting with his teammates seconds before the switch. He was not in pain.
We all know about Druw's struggles. The fact that we had a big lead at that point AND that there was 1 out with men on meant that AJ's patented rally killing double play grounder was what bobby feared. Regardless, other vets came out for a much deserved rest later in the game too. They just weren't pulled during a hitting spree.
