I agree, I watched him play the Shuckers a few weeks back and his approach at the plate was mature and he made solid contact . I think he has a chance to be a league avg starter and maybe a little more as he moves up.

Old Braves farmhand Matt Belisle gave up 3 hits and a run to blow the combined no hitter. (Stras DID walk 4 guys though)

BJhad averaged 4 WAR a season coming into free agency, I wouldn't call that "2nd tier" he sucked with us, that's not up for debate, but it's tough to blame anyone but BJ as GM's aren't psychic.

Let's hope Jace can keep this up, hell he could fill in at 3b next year while we wait to see if any of the prospects step up for 2018. oh, and an excellent article on relievers: http://grantland.com/the-triangle/the-flawed-importance-of-the-closer/

Garcia rips one to RF 3-1 barves

well, might as well try, and I thought he beat it

welp, we got screwed on another replay call

First you build the world, then the mythology then the characters and once that is done you can start telling the tale in depth. This means that once you establish the rules of the world, you can take liberties as you assume the audience gets that time has passed or other plot needs.
