    Random Brave thread

    Basically name a player, preferably the most random Brave player you can think of, that you didn't think would ever be Brave, or perhaps had a brief moment of infamy as an Atlanta Brave.

    I'll start:

    Derek Lee.

    Nearly forgot entirely that he was a Brave until someone mentioned him the other day. I remember thinking he was going to be big for us when we got him. And now that I look at his stats, he ended up performing much better than I remember him doing.

    Nick Esasky. He was coming off a big year 30 homers at the age of 29 and then 30 some odd at bats with the Braves then he was done playing baseball.

    Will Rogers.

    Really had no clue he was a native until I looked it up. They sometimes sneak at you in the worst places.

    He got 300 ABs for us one year. What year? I don't know, since I have no recollection of it.

    Troy Glaus is a pretty good one too.

    Also Gavin Floyd is good one from 10 years from now.
