re: The ATL Thread: Offseason Edition

Here's what I do with Gattis. I prepare his arse to play C for next year. No more of this outfield shite.

Stick him behind the plate and hope he can at least become serviceable in the next year.

And I totally forgot about Blake DeWitt. He's probably the 25th guy

I'm real wary of Simmons batting lead off. Our lineup would have been a tough out 1-7 if we could have kept Prado to hit lead-off.

Oh well.

I think he can do it. He doesn't swing and miss a lot, and he seems to have a good idea of the strike zone. My biggest fear with him is that he has shown an ability to slump for a few weeks, and you can't have that from your leadoff guy.

I know people would be up in arms over it, but I wouldn't be opposed to letting Heyward bat leadoff until Simmons gets some more big league ABs under his belt.

I actually don't hate that idea. Especially the way JHey was stealing bases last year.

+1 can't wait!!

18 days until pitchers and catchers report

29 days until first Spring Training game

Completely different thing, but I wonder what else smart arse's uncle is saying is about to come?? What could it be?!

Yeah I meant Laird instead of Cairo. Not sure what I was thinking

Just got a DM on Twitter from BravesCave.

Anybody else get that?

Holy shite if true...

May hold off on reporting.

Swamp or Whitie, you guys that same deal? Straight craziness.
