Forever Fredi
I just want to chime in and say I think he could be our 2017 starting right fielder...
...and should have been our 2015 right fielder.
Who wants to top that.
He and Fried are likely our two favorites for "fast riser" status.
I think Fried has turned a lot of heads this spring.

I suppose I understand the reluctance based on injury history but the reports on his stuff are tantalizing. Fried is going to push for a major league job earlier than people think. In fact, I think both Newcomb/Fried are going to make the Braves seriously think about trading Colon/Dickey by June.

Better hitter right now, Heywood or Francoeur?

Any credible projection would have projected Heyward's offense to improve in his late 20s/early 30s as his defense began to tail off, basically cancelling each other out. No projection system will take a player who has been a 5-6 WAR player through age 25 and project him to be worse than that from 26-30.
Where were you guys when many of us on this board said heyward wasn't a good hitter? Are you going to pretend like that wasnt discussed
