That's why I think it's imperative they resign him. Of course I basically get laughed at everytime I type this. Where else are they going to get a good-great lessors man capable of hitting for his average + the ability to swipe 30-40 bases a year?

I'd like to see him back too, because he's almost certain to be better the next couple of years than whoever the Braves find to put out there. But Bourn is not as good as he's been the first month and a half of 2012. Whoever signs him will be buying high on a 30 year old player whose whole game is based on speed. It's going to be a risky contract anyway, because if he loses a step as he moves into his mid 30s then he's useless. Add in the Braves' recent history with the free agent market and I just can't see it happening.
 
Verc,
I think we solved the question of FF to third. That furcal grounder exposed that FF has about as much range as Livan after his nightly feeding.

Missed it, but Freeman has looked like he's had decent range in the past. Maybe that's it.

Chipper can't move laterally at all and he does all right at 3B.

The ball was hit well but not crushed a step to his right. He did not even react to step, he just fell over and looked about as goofy as he does when he gives those stupid hugs.
 
Maybe he was thinking about the chick who gave him her number in the hotel lobby earlier. All I'm saying is that I've seen him move around really well over there at 1B in the past.
 
That's about four opposite field hits I've seen from Jason this week.

Great sign.
 
I've got the flu this week/weekend, which has made me feel so awful I can't even describe it.

But I got out of my chair and pump fisted 10 times when Heyward hit that homer.
