WTF would you do with em? Stick em back at the top of the order and put em a CF when he comes back.
WTF is the upside for this guy or having em on the team?
You gotta fricking answer?

He has over $63 million left on his contract over the next four and a half years.
He will likely be given at least through 2015 to figure things out.
You can maybe relegate him to being a defensive replacement in the playoffs if he doesn't get hot down the stretch here, but we are not close to a situation where he is in danger of being traded or released.
Bottom line, he will be the Braves staring center field the next 3 or 4 years at minimum.

You aren't seriously suggesting the Braves release a player they just spent $70 million on, are you?

Are you asking or telling, because you either used the wrong punctuation or the word "gotta" improperly.
And the answer is that he's owed a lot of money and it makes zero sense to release him.
The upside to having him is that he'll return to the power hitting, base stealing threat he can be.
He obviously won't give you much in terms of getting on base, and the Braves are likely paying for his downturn, but he's still a very good defensive CF.
He's also been a dangerous hitter in the post season historically.
