the problem is, BJ is being overpaid even if he is putting up his Usual numbers.

but thats an overall epidemic in Baseball.
 
That's why I respect the Tampa and Texas way so much more.

Develop a plethora of young arms. Pitching depth is a serious weapon.

The offense will come from the Kelly Johnson's and James Loney's of the world.

Can't talk farms and stables w/o mentioning the Braves. 
 
Texas and Tampa for AL. Probably could add Oakland as well.

Atlanta and St. Louis for NL. Probably could add Cincy as well.
 
Never saw the big deal with gray. Now Kris Bryant on the other hand.. hopefully giants pick up my boy Krook. Got five to six friends that will get drafted. Big pay day for one of them.
 
Wait, Puig threw him out from the warning track?
While moving to his left and letting loose a frozen rope off-balance, no less.

Kid's got a (Cuban) missile.
 
I hope Aaron Judge slips to the 2nd round and the Nats can get him, dude is the next Giancarlo.
 
Typical MLB to have the draft on day 1 of the NBA Finals. :{

You schedule that **** when nothin else is goin on so all the shine is on your sport Bud.
 
Haven't been around for the B.J. Upton slander but I see it daily on other sports message boards....people saying how he wasn't worth the money, the move was a fail, etc etc. How in the hell can a sample size of around 8% be a fail. The season needs to play out before we can even start discussing his worth, and even then, it's a bit pre-mature given this is year 1 of 5. Let's relax a little before we crown him as the next Nate McClouth*. The BJ Upton signing brought us Justin Upton AND Chris Johnson. When's the last time you heard anyone say the phrase, "they miss Chipper Jones"? I surely haven't and I've watched all but 3 Braves games this season. Of course we miss Chipper, but Johnson's play as exceeded ALL expectations in replacing #10 at 3B. So what if our big contract is under-performing when our smaller contracts (Johnson, Pena, Schaffer, and the man-beast EL OSO BLANCO) are all over-achieving. 8 game lead on ESPN's love child Nationals, we're good right now. 
I grew up watching the braves since i'm in there market....i converted to the nats years ago but I still watch yall.....but yea Chris Johnson has been a pleasant surprise lol
