    Freddi is the choice, Hubbard and the bench coach gets canned. Damn Pendleton gets moved to first base(does he have pics of someone) and they`re looking for a new hitting coach.

    Happy to see Cabrera gone. Maybe Jordan Schafer can get his shit together and play CF next season.

    He might but the Braves must get somebody who can hit a homerun or 20.

    true... the Braves have got to find a homerun hitting OF'er to play center or left. Hitting was the downfall of the team off and on all season. Can't blame it all on Pendleton but maybe a new hitting coach will make a little difference. Hope management realizes they goiing to have to spend a few bucks to get some power.

    Braves just swung a deal for Dan Ugla. Florida gets Omar Infante and Mike Dunn. This adds some pop to the lineup. Ugla is not a great 2b but he can hit and hit with power. I hate to see Infante go because he is so valuable but I like the deal.

    Uggla hasn't seen a pitch he wouldn't swing at. But still a nice pickup

    I love him. He was the teams MVP this year IMO. I still think it's a good deal, they have got to have more sock in the lineup.
