BREAKING: Andrelton Simmons gets seven-year, $58 million extension - Talking Chop

Seems like a good deal.

Braves must like their current core. Signing everyone to long term deals.

Simmons is going to have a great career, good move by the braves.

It's definitely better than our old strategy of selling off our farm and buying loaners on the free market.

We had a good team last year. Too many injuries to key players and Uggla couldn't hit an underhanded basketball with a tennis racket.

We should be East winners again but I doubt we've got the horses to go all the way.

when is the move to cobb??

2017, I believe. It will take forever to build the new stadium.

I think you're giving him too much credit there. He and BJ were not major league quality hitters last year. Most teams have backups and triple A players who could have put up better numbers than those two clowns.

Yep, you're right. I say we tar & feather them and run them out of here on a rail if they can't hit better than .250 this year.
