Oh I agree. He has huge upside.

Wouldn't be mad at all if we took him. I just want to go for power early this year. We've acquired some nice speed so I hope we move away from that a bit this year.

Speaking of power, how long before Gattis gets promoted to AAA? He has killed AA pitching thus far.

He hasn't completely destroyed AA like he did high A though (mind you, he's still clobbering the ball with a 1.000+ OPS), so he'll probably be there a month or two unless he starts hitting .350 I imagine. Hopefully he's get the last couple months in AAA and give us a decent bat option for LF next year.

Three weeks ago I was all like, "Let's talk draft."

And Swamp was all, "Wut?! I dunno about that. They aren't in my propectz liztttttt!!!"

And I was like "Dude, look at this big ole dude right derr in Georgia."

And he was like, *FAP FAP FAP FAP FAP*

And now he's all, "Look at my advanced scouting reportzzzz on Roache. He's already no. 13 on my prospect lizt!!!"

AA and AAA are about where he should be though, so if he is still hitting well at those levels it's a good sign. Any 25 year old with even borderline MLB talent is probably going to kick arse in A ball.

I just want us to have some options with the OF next year. If he ends up being good enough to be an every day starter in LF we can probably re-sign Bourn. Also, I can create a twitter account and do my best to either 1) make Keith Law cry or 2) make him admit that he is a dumbass.

Agreed on all counts. Except I think you have zero shot of making Law admit he was wrong about anything ever.

I brought up the list, god dammit! I can only assume you had never heard of him until I brought it to your attention.

I tried searching and couldn't find that thread.

I love the posts by R2R calling everyone Rantards for being optimistic about the Braves and saying we were better than the Giants.

The Braves' picks come right after the Giants in the first 4 rounds. Wonder who we're gonna steal right out from under y'all?

Optimistic? You must be shitting me. More like fickle knee-jerkers. Just wait until they go on a 3-game losing streak. They'll want to blow up the entire roster.

Y'all have a better overall team this year. I'll take Bochy over Frediot though for sure. And it's not even really a competition... AT&T Park > Turner Field.
