Chopping With The Braves And Rolling With The Tide
That's what we get for devoting an entire thread to discussing Wieters' value.
Avilan has had a bad stretch it seems.
Let's get weiters to ATL this offseason!
Let's face it. Disappointing loss, but another step to a high draft pick.
Trade JJ and Avilan. And give Viz a chance at the closer role down the stretch.
Oh Brian Jordan. "Why didn't you draft me Atlanta Braves?"-- in reference to Wieters. Umm maybe because he was selected waaaay before we were on the clock.

Braves eighth walk-off loss this season. Tied with the Reds and Pirates for the most this season.

So how good could Garcia be? He's never gotten the chance before and he's always had decent minor league numbers. Maybe this guy is a surprise regular. Other teams have surprises like that. Why can't he be one?
Luis "Protect the Pick" Avilan

Last year he slashed .319/.353/.474 for the Yankees AAA team
This year he slashed .284/.314/.367 for Gwinnett
Part of the difference was a BABIP of .348 in 2014 versus .314 this year. Walk rate hasn't change much. Strikeout rate down a bit this year. ISO down this year.
