Hello everyone! Can’t believe people are still slamming Mac? Mac , will start nesxt season whether people like it or, not. Braves will let him play out, and see his progress, and then talk about signing him. Amazing how poeple don’t like some one who in the top 5 of leading catchers. He was injured, and will have to see how he does next season. I’m good with that, and would love Mac to stay a Brave. Hope it works out for Mac.

Braves shouldn’t throw Mac, under the bus. That’s not how you gain respect with players. You can repsect by giving them time to heal, and see what the can he do. That’s how you gain Macs’ repsect by allowing him to recover, and letting him play, and work out contracts after next season. You don’t gain respect from players by throwing them under the bus.

Janish is expected to return next season, so we know 1 bench spot is taken, and it looks like Francisco will be returning too next season, so thats 2 bench spots. Braves will probably pick up Reeds contract, so that’s 3 spots . That leaves two spots open depending on what Braves do with Ross. Then that leaves one spot left?

I am having a change of heart about Bourjos if the Braves do not have to give up too much for him.
As some have pointed out, he did not put up bad numbers in the 11 season. But of course you want more than that but he is young enough to get better.
Still do not know how much he is going to hit.
If we can trade for both Gordon and Bourjos that would be fine, but you are giving up players in two trades. Do we have enough to land both without overpaying?
I’d give up alot for Gordon, not so much for Bourjos.

After Napoli there is nothing but back up catcher types, we are prolly in a position to keep the option on Mc Cann.
Napoli will not be cheep either so the Braves are out of that running.
As for Torrii Hunter,I don’t think he is in the Garret Anderson stage just yet. He should help somebody. I can understand the Garrett Anderson comparisons cause we got burned with him, but Hunter has more left in the tank.

“I think for perhaps 18 or so parks, the splits are prolly not very meaningful, but I think in the 5 or 6 best hitting parks and the 5 or 6 best pitching parks it behooves you to pay at least some attention to their home/away splits”.
That makes some sense though I still say that if you are major league you are major league and should hit anywhere. The extreme parks may add or subtract something but like WAR, its not the end all and be all.
And sometimes a guy has a career yr — example is Chase Headley last yr. He went from having average power numbers and good OPB to near MVP numbers last yr. Could be a career yr. But I would take him if SD would talk trade.

12 million for a guy that might not be able to play till may. and if then might not be able to throw the ball.
I have yet to see anything, anywhere that says successful labrum surgery for a position player may result in an inability to throw a baseball (pitchers, obviously, may be a different story). The body of documentation (a deep and long documentation) on prognoses for the patient simply doesn’t support such a fear. Success rate for labral repair ranges from 85% to 95%, so the odds are overwhelmingly in favor of McCann returning to pre-injury form.
It’s like folks think the surgery made the shoulder worse or something, instead of fixing the problem.

Even in this, pitchers can still throw a ball, they just can’t pitch a ball… McCann was never known for gunning down runners at 2nd base with a 99mph fastball. He was known for calling a good game and hitting the ball out of the park. A successful surgery should be able to restore that ability.

McCann’s ability to thro out runners has not made a bit of difference in the Braves winning. Not hitting with RISP has definitelymade a difference. If Mac can hit again, he’ll be worth what he costs and there is no way in hell they can find another catcher to provide a healthy McCann’s offense – which we need.

Brian McCann had made himself into a defensive liability BEFORE he hurt his shoulder. He’s pitifully, horribly slow. He wasn’t throwing anyone out BEFORE hurting his shoulder. He hasn’t kept himself in reasonable shape for any length of time in YEARS. Just because he hit at a pretty good clip for a FEW years, is no reason for some of you to act like we’ve been watching Johnny Bench for the past 7 years or whatever. For about 4-5 yrs, it would have been a toss-up with me on who my favorite player was: Chipper or Mac. But since then, McCann has done very little to instill confidence that he will be able to bounce back from this and be a premier (hitting at least) catcher again. Nobody on this blog even seems willing to address the eye-sight issues he obviously suffers from now that have clearly gotten worse over this same period of time as well. He squints constantly, has been unsuccessful getting a pair of glasses or contacts that have solved the situation and has talked having eye surgery on more than one occassion. If Mac had kept himself in great shape and still suffered through these injuries, myself and a lot of other detractors might be willing to cut him more slack, but when you’re forced to watch a 28 yr old MLB player run slower than my Dad, it starts to get to you, and then he starts having injury trouble which is OBVIOUSLY as a result of his poor conditioning. Let’s call a spade a spade here. Mac has declined in the latter half of the season for more like 3 yrs now due to his poor conditioning, and you guys think WE’RE the crazy ones for thinking it’s time to let him go? Enough with the “heart” BS and “great clubhouse guy” horse S H I T. That stuff is why you bring back a Diaz type player (I’m not saying I want to see Diaz back, just example) whom you’re not paying all that much money, but his presence seems to help the club. You don’t pay a player on the decline the most money on the team simply because he’s a good guy…

I have no problem with Bourjos in CF if we find a big RH hitter LF or 3B.
I think the Braves should go hard for Tori Hunter to be a Chipper replacement. Use Prado and Francisco just like the Braves did with Chipper to keep him fresh.
Pay him 12 million for next year with a 6-8 million option in 14.
Sign Reed Johnson and Greg Dobbs for the bench to go along with Janish, Francisco and David Ross.
Find a CF. Defense minded. Can be an 8 hitter.
It would give you a 7, 8, 9 of Simmons, Light hitting CF, pitcher.

Don’t think is a starter. Not that he isn’t good. Juan is a platoon player, he can’t hit lefties. Bourjos can hit lefties.
Juan has never started for a full season and put up good numbers. Bourjos did. This would have been a year to improve, but he got hurt early, and ended up losing his job to Mike Trout, who just may win an MVP. Mike freaking Trout.

Yeah – let’s replace McCan with a catcher that can throw but can’t hit, replace Bourn with a CF who plays good defense but can’t hit and look what our 6-9 hitters look like in our lineup and wonder why we hit even less with RISP – the one REAL aspect of the offense that needs correction.

Bourjos ranked 10th this season in CF defense (Rtot), 8th in Rtot. Yet he only played in 48 games, and played 37% of the inning that Bourn, the leader, did. Higher Range Factor than Bourn this year, and for their respective careers.
If I were to calculate Bourjos numbers to have him and Bourn play the same # of innings (and yes, I know nolie said it’s not cumulative), his Rtot would be 2nd to Bourn (above Pagan), and in Rdrs, he’d be tied with Bourn for first place.
Based on playing 1200 innings (Bourn was over that) Bourjos would be 1 run past him.
I’m not gonna say that Bourjos will outperform Bourn defensively, but he will be the closest of the outfielders out there in my opinion. And he’ll cost about 1mil. (+ prospects)

Yes, the hip injury… I don’t think the surgery would be a big issue though, not a radical surgery. He’ll be fine like BMac. It’s a 2-3 month recovery.
Feb 2012-
Peter Bourjos made certain to say that he’s currently feeling “good, normal, 100 percent” but the Angels center fielder also said today that he’ll likely need hip surgery after the season.
Bourjos told Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times that he would’ve had the operation to repair labrum fraying during the offseason, except he didn’t undergo an MRI exam until around Thanksgiving and the recovery timetable is typically 6-12 weeks.
“It would have cut it too close to be ready by spring training,” said Bourjos, who explained that he’s had hip issues for 4-5 years now without it really hurting his performance. During that time he rose through the Angels’ minor-league system and established himself as one of the elite defensive center fielders in baseball, which seemingly would be awfully tough to do with a significant hip injury.

I think Freddie Freeman will develop into our everyday 3 hitter, not Heyward. I think Freeman has a batting title in his future and Heyward will be our 5 hitter for many years to come. Heyward may see a 35-40 home run season someday. Andrelton Simmons is one my favorite new players and I hope the kid becomes the next wizard out there at SS, he sure looks like he could. I would love to see Constanza PROVE he can’t hit MLB pitching and I don’t his D is all that bad. I think if Francisco lost a little weight and got serious about the game, he could be a big bat in our lineup and be a real dark horse addition. I was extremely pleased with Minor’s development this season and hope he continues to improve into one of the better lefties in the NL. I don’t see a need to sign Bourn, he will probably cost too much. But I wouldn’t complain if he were back next year. As long as he remains healthy, I think Heyward could have an MVP season in his future. There Lew, that positive enough for ya?

explained that he’s had hip issues for 4-5 years now without it really hurting his performance.
Except that you’ve now laid his poor offensive performance at the feet of those issues. So, if the hip helped cause his offensive falloff and he isn’t having it fixed, why would you want him? If the hip didn’t affect his performance, then he was just a poor hitter, and why would you want him?

Bourjos Greinke Willingham Pastornicky
Pastornicky. He’s the only guy who shouldn’t/can’t be a starter.

BFsince80’s But at least be willing to admit the guy is now half-blind, overly fat, and mind-numbingly slow…
If that was even remotely close to being true, it’d be one thing…

Get over what? The fact that you spout a bunch of BS on a regular basis? Stop talking like a fool and there will be nothing to get over.

“The bat can rebound.” No doubt about it – nowhere to go but up.

“Sticks and stones” – Is that your advice to McCann if he reads your trash?

and it looks like Francisco will be returning too next season
Hard for me to think they’ll carry a guy who can only play one IF position, and not all that well. Last year was different, in that Chipper was occupying 3B and there was a reasonable expectation that Juan would get some plate appearances there. That’s no longer the case, and Francisco doesn’t otherwise offer much flexibility as a bench player.

I’ve been in hiding for the past few weeks…. Hell last night was the first time I’ve watched Baseball since the play in game. Have most of the idiot trolls left for the football blogs?
