1:53 PMThere's still time for trades ahead of the start of the 2011 NFL season, but a much talked about deal that would have left Tim Tebow with less competition for the starting quarterback job in Denver has fallen through.
The next man up was Tyler Pastornicky, who was also promoted from Class AA (Mississippi) to Class AAA on July 19. The two players were both born in Florida in 1989. Moore faced Pastornicky in two Southern League games earlier this season, holding him to an infield single in five at-bats. Pastornicky was, in fact, the only player in Gwinnett's lineup last night whom Moore had seen before. He saw him again Tuesday night, from the dugout at the DBAP, when Pastornicky went 2-4 with a first-inning walk and stolen base against Matt Torra & Co.
On Friday in Denver, Orton took snapss at team's practice session along with Tebow, and a third quarterback, Brady Quinn. Head coach John Fox considers Orton to be ahead of the pack for now.
I hope Pastornicky took a picture of second base, or planted the world's tiniest G-Braves flag in it, or made a drawing of it in a pocket-sized journal, or tweeted about the wondrous view from there: something to memorialize or lay claim to the keystone sack for future Braves, and to prove that one of them had been there. Neither he nor anyone else on his team reached second base for the rest of the night.
