Some may disagree. Some may want to give him till he's 30 years old. But some are gonna have to face that he may or may not become the player we know he can be. Francouer is the best example of that. He came out, was gonna be our next "Chipper Jones". I can remember Skip Carey in a telecast saying "next time you probly won't see Francouer in a Braves uniform might be 2020. He didn't even last to 2010. Some guys come out not hightly touted like Martin Prado and become great (I say he's been better and more consistent than Francouer has) and some bust like Jeff.
    If you don't understand the difference between Heyward and Francouer, then there's nothing anyone can do to help you.

    Jmo, but when Heyward and Simmons are swinging the bat well, it's obvious that they are 2 of the most valuable players in baseball.
