Good depending on price

i like this
Guy has had a great season. No doubt about that. Stuff still looks good so this looks like a good move. Like him better as a setup man than closer though.
I definitely like this. Johnson has been great here.
JohnAdcox (10-03-2016)
solid move
2 years.. that is perfect!! I thought it would be 3. JJ and the Braves are a good match!!
JohnAdcox (10-03-2016)
Good move...playoff run 2017.
Nice move. JJ has been solid for us this year.
This got done pretty quickly. They are going to need a veteran in the pen and Johnson has been really good this year since he came off the DL at the end of May. It reduces the shopping list by one item. Still are going to need some LHP help out there.

He's a different pitcher when he works for Roger. The sinkerballer thing.
Wasn't long ago we were all calling for his head.
Good on him for turning it around.
Front office is wasting no time. It would be very expensive to find his production on the open market. Next stop: catcher?
JohnAdcox (10-03-2016)
Hope it's cheap and we can flip him at deadline bc Simmons and winkler are healthy
Very smart move....his price would be high in the offseason and I think I really helped that he doesn't want to be anywhere else.
