    Enterring his prime. Not out of the realm of possibility he will be better than he has been so far in his career.

    Cut 'em some slack. They're just compensating for not having BJ and Uggla in the lineup.

    He's definitely taken his game to another level. I doubt he'll get any better than he is this season, but he may exhibit more power in his career. From his ESPN interview, the Braves sat him down and told him to stop swinging for the fences. That approach has helped him tremendously.

    Yeah, a 400+ BABIP is unsustainable but I still think he will be an 800+ OPS guy for the next couple of years.

    Slider waited 55 feet before it decided to break. Just amazing he was. Its really a shame he fought so many injuries. Man would have went down as one of the greatest starting pitchers of all time.

    I hope Medlen goes on another tear like last year. I don't expect anything near last year's performance, but a tear, nonetheless.

    When he has command of his changeup he is a different pitcher.

    I'd bet on grizzly adams, especially since Gio is off the juice now.
