Minor League yes


Seems to be the Braves' plan this year. This is the worst lineup I've ever seen the Braves run out. Freeman will be high on the league leaderboard in walks because he'll get pitched around so much. This team will have the potential to be no hit every night.

While I agree with you about the lineup, we had a bigger chance last year of being no hit IMO with all of the k's.

I think you are probably over doing the affects on Freeman with no protection. He will be fine.

The lineup can't be any worse than last year. At least we'll see fewer strikeouts. 70-75 wins.

I think it will be worse. The Braves cleanup hitter has borderline double digit home run power.

Freeman and potentially Peraza and Markakis are the only guys with the ability to be non bottom 10 offensive players at their positions.

Turns out, Matt Capp's 86 MPH fastball is very hittable

I just realized with BJ's name change that we have two Young Jr.'s on the team now.

His last name is still Upton unless a joke just went right over my head.
