I will say yes to this for the shear idea of having LaStella and Terdo over Uggla and BJ. lol

I have a hard time seeing Terdoslavich as a long-term answer, but it would certainly be an immediate and realistic upgrade. I'd love to believe that the powers that be would sit Uggla and BJ at the same time. But I can't, alas. I wish, though.,

That would be a very good balanced lineup.

I like the idea of Heyward in center but we need to get a corner outfielder in a trade. No one we have is going to be much better than BJ. Only 3 more years of this contract.......

Replacing Uggla is an obvious no-brainer. I'm not so sure the drop off defensively from Terdo to BJ would be worth the increase in offense, however.

Plus I think the Braves just absolutely have to give old Burton-Judson consistent playing-time and PAs through the remainder of this season, at minimum, to see if he can turn things more substantially around. Because of a host of factors—age-based, contractual, defensive, fraternal—I don't think we're near the Uggla-juncture yet with the elder Upton.

I DO like the creative way that clvclv thinks, though. Always a good read.

If I had to put anyone out there, I'd go Cunningham over Terdo. I'm a big Terdo fan, but Cunningham is more consistent too me.
