I was happy to see Heyward sign a two year deal but even sweeter to see Freddie Freeman locked up for eight.

Braves sign 22 Y/O Julio Tehran to a 6 year deal for 32 million dollars. Freaking STEAL.

Frank Wren may have struck out with Uggla and BJ Upton but he's making up for it in a lot of other ways.

Heyward bought PS4s for everyone who was on last years team. A way of saying thanks for their hard work and dedication. Pretty cool.

I'm a bit surprised about the Chris Johnson extension. Why now?

There are some on ebay. I'm getting my best friend Braves fan friend something Braves for his birthday in October. There is a good idea.

Now we have the worst defensive outfield in baseball by far. I would rather have Andruw Jones. Yeah, just him. The Uptons are awful. Gattis is ughhhhh.

Braves will lose 90-100 games next 2 years. Without question.

Owned by Assholes, Run by Idiots.

Jermaine Dye, David Justice.... they never fucking learn.

This is the same group that traded fucking Wainwright for JD Drew.

Travesty.

The argument is... oh Jason Heyward is lifetime .260 with no power.... HE'S 25! He can play center field or right. The Fucking braves had him leading off.

Absolute, abject fucking stupdity. Shelby Miller will have Tommy John's surgery in 321...

6 innings every 5 days for a fucking starting right fielder.

We're set at Shortstop and 1st Base, horrible at 3rd but they resigned him for some reason, will have the rookie coming up at 2nd so I'm not sure what to expect, Bethancourt behind the plate and the worst outfield known to modern mankind.

This team is going to be unwatchable for 2 years.

They might as well trade Kimbrel and Justin Upton/Gattis now too and just pay off BJ over time.
