Nothing is expected to heat up with Quintana until July. Houston has been the most active team but have refused to meet Chicago's insane asking price. That asking price is why the Braves walked away from talks. Link to post Share on other sites

They will wait and see where their teams are in the standings by mid July where they arfe either buyers or sellers. Teams in the hunt always overpay come the trade deadline.

No, never injuries, but it brought back memories of old Crosley field in Cincinnati and I like the uniqueness of it. . Despite the criticism of Tal's hill there was never an injury caused by it.

Falconsfan567 35,212 Posted April 2, 2017 Author Share Posted April 2, 2017 I have no ill will towards Anthony Rizzo but it pisses me off that he gets all this attention and Freddie Freeman is completely ignored. Freddie Freeman is a better player than Rizzo. Watch the games. Look at the numbers. It's ridiculous that Freeman is ignored because the Braves are ignored. Link to post Share on other sites
