He was a great hitter for half a season with us, but that's it. He was an excellent hitter BEFORE getting here.
Maybe it's a coincidence but the OF sure is going to look different next year with Justin, BJ, and Heyward being shown the door. Gattis in LF, the new white CF we find(possibly latin because it's close enough), and not Jason Heyward in RF.
2013 he was on the exact same pace as 2012... just less plate appearances... 2014 is useless to judge in a season with only 130 at bats

2013 first half he had a lot of walks. The second half his walks declined as did homers.
I wouldn't say 2014 is useless. Outside of the Philly grandslam game his numbers were awful and that was with Fredi throwing him out there. Didn't do much better with San Fran.
Ha! Someone on the Braves Facebook page said this -
"He's consistent, a career .290 hitter, and his D is even better than Heyward's. 2 Gold Gloves-2011 & 2014, & almost twice as many outfield assists each year.
Look it up."
Because losing in the WC is guaranteed right? No way the team can win in the WC like the Royals or Giants did and make it to the world series. 0% chance of that happening.
Yes, Heyward is not here 'cos he's black... and we are only trying to possibly get rid of the Uptons because they are black... ugggg, spare me
Uggla tied with Votto for the NL lead in walks in 2012.
Just occurred to me Dan Uggla will receive a world series ring.
Mind blown.

You nailed it. The Braves FO are racist. Mystery solved. Hiring Freddie G as manager was simply a ploy to throw everyone off.

That's just their way of trying to force the rest of us to be racist, too.
It's all coming together.
