Re: **Atlanta Braves offseason thread
How big could his salary get with arbitration? I think at 10-12 Million with him playing for a contract could be great value or a huge bust. I thought this year he would have put up some big numbers, at least I was hopefull after his last couple years.
I guess offering arbitration is going to be high variance, at least the Braves draft well so if he bolts there is some decent expectation for the compensation. edit* Mike Gonzalez is supposed to be out untill around mid-season. I think he can be a great contributor to the bullpen if he can get healthy. Soriano, Moylan, and Gonzalez is pretty solid, hopefully one of the younger guys can step up in his absense. |

Andruw Jones isn't even a Type A FA.

Re: **Atlanta Braves offseason thread
I wouldn't mind going to arb with Andruw. Can't see him getting much after the year he had. I'd probably offer 10 million and take my chances.

Re: **Atlanta Braves offseason thread
He's still worth more than 10mil, he had a terrible year, but that terrible year still consisted of 26 HRs and 94 rbis...not bad for an awful season. Plus he is still very good defensively, I think they will be lucky to get another year of him this cheap because he should definitely be better next year.

Re: **Atlanta Braves offseason thread
If they were going to arbitrate I think they already would have, so Andruw is not coming back. And dont teams like the Braves usually avoid arbitration since the player usually wins? I could be wrong but it seems that's what happens.

Re: **Atlanta Braves offseason thread
The Braves may just have traded for Druw's replacement.
So the batting order could be: 1.Anderson 2.Escobar 3.Jones 4.Tex 5.McCann 6.Francouer 7.Diaz 8.Johnson |

This looks like more of a move to get rid of the $1.5MM or so they'd have to pay Villareal via arbitration. |

Re: **Atlanta Braves offseason thread
Wow, fans of teams are so uninformed it's sad. lmao @ Anderson being Andruw's replacement.lmao @ selfish Chipper. lmao @ a lot of things.
If Jones accepts arbitration, Braves look like the favorite in the NL East, and prolly the National League as a whole. gogogo |
