I'm a braves fan and thought he'd be the "next great one".

However he has an awesome glove and is a leader. He is the one who gathered the team around during last year's rain delay during game 7 of the World Series. However he is making Mega bucks and hasn't hit at all in his 2 seasons in Chicago

He is definitely a hack. But, I’m sure he laughs every day on his way to the bank knowing some team is doling out a ridiculous amount of money for a below average player.

Braves had to rebuild their minor league system. Got some good young players. Let's see what happens.

Years ago they had to stop spending too $$$ due to aol/time warner (their owners) tanking

I LOVED watching braves baseball on tbs as a kid since the early/mid 80's when they were garbage. I miss the TBS days. Saw the braves play 2x this year in south florida (as recent as 2 weeks ago) and was weird b/c i didnt know too many of their players

Sounds like a guy the Nationals would pick up to add to their choke job lineup. They need to cut a bunch of those guys. I think young was the only guy to came through a bit for them. Werth makes him look like Ted williams and Wille Mays. He is brutal

My joke with my buddy (who is a cubs fan) was it seemed like Zimmerman and J Hey were playing a game of "who can leave the most players on base during clutch time"

No doubt. Buy an upper deck ticket and then go sit behind home plate. Was there in 86 when Bob Horner hit 4 homers and still lost. That was Chief Knockhoma last year also. Lol

Typical looks like Tarzan plays like Jane. From what I heard down here on local radio, he was a bit of a primadonna with braves and after being labeled the chosen one and having early success, he was essentially uncoachable. It always pisses me off when people like that have ungodly amounts of talent just piss it away
