    Really wish Michael Brantley was in CF for us.

    I have been saying for a few years he is the perfect CF for us. Cheap, can leadoff, great baseball IQ, great character, and would love to be in Atlanta.


    .328 14 HRs 60 RBI 59 Runs 10 SBs .920 OPS 30k's in 366 ABs.

    Really wish Jason Donaldson was playing 3b for us.....also, I wish that Mike Trout was playing CF.

    I think that's it for now.

    Ah good one, that reminded me.....

    I wish we could go back in time and trade for JD Drew BUT take Adam Wainwright out of the deal, like not include him.....at all.

    Think we'd be better than a 49 win team with those guys or would Fredi still hold Trout, Felix and Donaldson down too?

    CJ is having a rough year so far, no doubt. I still think he will have a strong second half.

    Me. I think his defense is fine, he makes all the plays and range doesn't matter much at a reactive position. He's a genius at hitting line drives. Even with the lack of discipline, he's at .280 with a predictably high BABIP. He's a little high strung, he'll go through some anxious stretches. But he's a .300 hitter and a nice complementary ballplayer. If we don't have a few of those we'll go broke. Can't have a superstar at every position.

    I, too, look for a better second half.
