just some thoughts

I pose a question to all Braves fans! Who would you rather see traded Chipper Jones or Andruw Jones?? Well if you ask me, you don't trade the franchise player that Andruw is. Chipper is in the twillight of his career and I think that keeping Andruw has more upside. The pitching staff is getting older and who knows what the deal is with Mike Hampton? Chipper has done some great things for the orginization, don't get me wrong, but hey why trade a 28 year old when you have an aging 3rd baseman? And they aren't doing much as far as free agency goes, but hey money is always an issue unless your the Evil Empire that is they Yankees, but hey they can keep spending money to lose the World Series, that's ok with me. Anyway you look at it the Braves have to make a move, lets hope that its a good one!

It doesn't matter what the Braves do...they are bound for a last place shoot out with the Marlins. Unfortunately for the Braves fans because it is just where the ownership catastrophe in Hotlanta has led them. They do have some very good young players to watch but just not enough of a team to win...these things are cyclical so I bet they'll be back in a few years.

Last place shoot out, that may be a stretch, they should finish ahead of the phillies this year, but that's why they play the games, who would have thought the cardinals would have won the way they finished last year during the regular season

I predict that Atlanta will trade Andruw by this year's allstar game. As a Brave fan, I guess we will have losing seasons for years. Maybe they should bring back the baby-blue uniforms.
