Are the Braves completely moving away from Vaughn Grissom? I think he may be the piece to bring in and spell Arica from time to time. Especially down the stretch run of the season. I know he’s had issues defensively, and that may be what’s holding him back.

If he isn't progressing defensively at short, I'm not sure he has a long term home with the team unless he can become a good left fielder or a Chris Taylor super utility type.

I also think the Braves want him playing every day right now, so I highly doubt he gets called up to spell Arcia from time to time.

I think Grissom eventually gets traded. I just hope it isn't for a rental bullpen arm because I think his bat carries a hell of a lot more trade value than that.
