Shanks Follows Up On His Heyward Article

LOL... Yeppers, can tell. Got a couple beauties in here acting who thought I said we need to trade Heyward when I said IF he's still doing what he's done for the season at NEXT YEAR'S deadline (hitting .220 and what not being his 5th season in the bigs) then I say you may want to consider it. 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.
 
Speaking of stumbling in here...

Oh hells. It's on and crackin now.

I've been all

waiting around for this day to arrive.
 
I can't remember francouer very well as a Brave. Every time he came to the plate I switched the channel.
 
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.
