The Braves


Claws

Recommended Posts

Gonna miss Prado, but I'm loving the deal. Looks like we came out on top.

Prado is a free agent after this year and the reports coming out are stating that he was asking for 12million/year on an extension.

Upton still has 4 years of team control.

It's an awesome deal.

With Chipper gone, Prado was going to be the glue that held the Braves together. My dad always told me you can't put a price on good glue. The Braves will fall apart quicker than Charlie Sheen in a crack house......

Ok, well maybe not but I am a Phillie's fan and I don't have to like this trade one bit....

2011 form is fine with me.

I fully expect him to return to his 2010 form or close to it. Johnson should replace the production left from Prado and will take over the Third base spot.

That's two guys that should hit for 280-290 and around 15-20+ HR with around 70 RBI's each with Johnson probably scoring around 40-50 runs and Upton in 110 range. Add in 20 SB's to that.

Upton, Upton and Heyward might be the best outfield in MLB and is very young and under contract for a while.

His 2011 form was great, it was only 2012 form that was lacking, from the injured thumb. That was all I was pointing out.
