Next up for #Braves is hoping 3b Chris Johnson gets off to good start and can trade as much of his 3-$25M as possible.

Talk about bad signings.

I didn't hate it. I'm an Anna Kendrick fan.

I didn't hate it either, but I would never admit it. wait... damnit.

 

[Heyward]

3-25 isnt that bad, take out the option and its alot more manageable.

Yeah, yeah. Me neither. Shhhhhh

I knew that before you even typed it. All women are different except for one thing. They all love Pitch Perfect.

I'm with jpx7. I enjoyed that flick. Didn't see it in the theater, but have seen it on HBO. Good laughs. Anything with John Michael Higgins gets a "yes" vote from me.

The kicker was it was completely unnecessary . Just arby that thing out... Or better yet, sell high after he his .330 or whatever

 

[MadduxFanII]

oooh...Sra 3000 loves that one.

I'm pretty sure I would watch Anna Kendrick in a low budget production of The Drying Paint.

Not Wren's worst move in terms of magnitude of payroll load, but I always thought the move asinine because Chris Johnson is so replaceable.

L. Juan Chubbard is back looking for a job

 

[weso1]

He should never be taken seriously as a journalist, blogger, whatever—totally unprofessional.

While that's true, BJ Upton can suck my left nut. The one that doesn't hang as low because he's got to work harder for it.

 

[emk418]

I'm sorry but the fact we were able to unload 100% of BJ Upton while also getting Matt Wisler plus is a great great deal.

Shoot, we could have kept Chubbard and at the very least saved some dough when we DFA'd him and traded CJ pre-extension. And we'd have saved even more money on TP's blood pressure meds.

I defended Wren alot, but that move was stupid.

They can find a suitor for him if he starts out well.

I think that Swinging Clear documentary really hurts his chances.

I think we're all having a moment here where we all admit that we kind of liked Pitch Perfect.

I've always thought it was his second worst move, mainly just because of how nonsensical it was. There was no hurry, it certainly wasn't for a discount, and he was in the middle of the worst slump of an awful season.

He's at least OT I against RHP,

I would go Into Her Woods

I guess I'll be the one who says it. It was his worst move. BJ Upton signing made sense in that he was talented and we needed a CF. Chris Johnson is not very talented and we didn't need a 3b, because we already had Chris Johnson. I mean we had absolutely no reason to sign him, because we already had him.
