    We won't know until he plays this year. I imagine he'll start in A or A+ with the goal to move him pretty quickly. I would look to 2016 for him to have a chance to break camp in the bigs.

    Swanson will be ready in 2017. ONE HELLUVA RETURN - kiss my *ass naysayers!!!
    Has there EVER been a statement and question a certain someone should absolutely never have made and asked publicly more than...

    Kinda pathetic to see yourself as a message board knight in shining armor. How impotent does someone have to be in real life to resort to playing hero on a message board?

    Too bad we don't have Simmons still or I'd actually be excited for 2017.
    We essentially swapped Simmons for Swanson, and added Newcomb who could be a 1-2.

    What are the chances of Swanson playing 3B? I know he's a SS but maybe with Albies they intend Swanson to move to 3B?

    Very interesting trade. I wonder is Swanson stays at SS with Albies there too.

    I wonder if the Braves are listening at all on Freeman. I'm assuming they are shopping Markakis given the glut of outfielders now.

    This may be a deal that gets 100% support of the fans.

    Stunning return

    (p.s.... please remember this post the next time someone says I only complain)

    McDaniel (guy we just hired) had him at #26 in his mid season rankings on Fangraphs after he was drafted.

    I think it's more likely we see them teaming up at SS/2B in some way. No idea which guy plays which position tho.
