    Braves Caravan

    I know it might be a little early, but has anyone heard or seen anything about it for this offseason? are they even doing it?

    As soon as they have players to visit, you'll see a schedule. Seriously, I expect it within two weeks.

    I heard the only one participating this year will be our GM, John Coppollea. Format will be similiar to a Bernie Sanders rally.

    So should Braves fans show up and chant "2016 Matters" or "Braves fans matter" or what?

    The roster is not finalized yet.

    Not sure if we're going to trade Freeman or Teheran yet.

    Hey all! I work for a Braves radio affiliate and I saw this post about the caravan. To our understanding, they are not doing the caravan this year. They are replacing it with the FanFest at Turner Field on January 30th. That came straight from a Braves representative's mouth.

    Only took 3 years for your first post, and a very helpful one indeed.

    You better be careful with your service time, buddy. I think the boss is getting ready for a rebuild. He's going to trade some expensive veterans and start stockpiling young talent.

    hey, apparently I am a top 100.. But I am more like Hector in that I am older with an injury history, who can't hit or really play any position...



    **wait, now I am Co_ROY.. When did I get that award and is it worth 1.5 Billion? I thought Smoothie won that fair and square..

    Excellent, there is reason to believe that there will be a much larger dynamic and variety of food venders at Fan Fest compared to the Caravan.

    Haha It was explained to me that the FanFest would be treated like the Caravan with players, giveaways, and all. I would assume that the Fox Girls will be there as well, since they attended all Caravan stops last year.

    100% confirmation that there won't be a caravan this year. Good news for those of you in Atlanta that can attend the FanFest
