Bourn just makes too much sense for the Braves.

If there’s no confidence in Emilio Bonifacio. They’re both not making the team. I think depth is a weakness for the 2017 Braves and I prefer the versatility of Bonifacio. However, if Chase d’Arnaud can stand in for what Sean Rodriguez could have been for the Braves this year then I’ll take Bourn over Bonifacio.

Great screen name.

No offense but besides the abilities to play centerfield and breathe, why do you feel that Bourn makes too much sense for the Braves? As it stands now they have 3 regular everyday type outfielders who all stand to seldom take days off. Yes, Bourn probably belongs on some team’s bench, but I personally think that he is not a better option than either Bonafacio nor Jace Peterson (who both can fill in short term in centerfield). Also Bourn does nothing but replicates the type of player the Braves already have on the bench, that is mediocre defense and very little offense. If anything the Braves probably need a right handed hitting player with at least a modest bat who is also qualified to fill in at centerfield IF the team is going to make a change this late in the spring.

Does this mean Gentry made the team, because I would love to see him rebound after a couple bad seasons

Always kills me when some people see these stories then write a post saying their team should pick them up. Waiting to see a story about the Mets releasing Tebow and someone suggesting their team take a flyer..oh it’ll happen.
Should Have Acquired Dylan Cease
if it kills you, why are you not dead? or are you that type of person who says, “I’m done” or “dead” when something funny comes up?

The two dislikes are people who say “I’m dead” when are faced with humor!

Maybe they’re “literally dying” due to losing their ability to even.

Tebow would look great in pinstripes!!!

Hope you mean with a tie on the set of college game day.

It kills me how good Tebow would look on the Pirates team. Please don’t tease me, it’s killing me

Oh look, another CF the moron A’s are passing on in favor of the utterly mediocre Mark Canha fresh off hip surgery moving to CF to spell Rajai, but if Raj gets hurts they really are going to rue not having De Aza, Bourn or Pagan on the roster.

If I were the Yankees I would jump on Chris Johnson. I would cut Chris Carter. Strikes out too much! He ca play third and first and outfield.

As a Rays fan I hope they do exactly what you say. In fact, I hope they hire you as their GM 😉

Bourn to the giants

Oriole’s should resign Bourn and then trade him to the mets for tebow.
I’ll take a flier and pass it on to the zombies in the stands 🙂

Seems like everyone makes sense for the braves
