    Markakis 9
    Freeman 3

    #Braves newcomer Maybin is here, not in lineup. Quentin was told he'd be DFA'd, did not have to fly here.
    #Braves will designate for assignment Carlos Quentin, who has $8M salary. Hope that an AL team will show interest in picking up some $

    I'm excited to see what Peterson can do.
    I also like Callapso over C Johnson.

    But is K Johnson really better than Gomes?

    Against a rhp probably so.

    Interesting that fredi sat CJ bc CJ has hit Alvarez well

    When Maybin is ready to play, I think we put him in CF and move Young Jr. to left

    Callaspo is garbage, I'm honestly not sure why he's even on the roster.

    My guess is that CF will be more of a platoon than we want. Maybin should at least be given a shot to earn the job.

    Put the barrel on the ball consistently and good things are going to happen.

    Enjoyed seeing those nice approaches at the plate. All but one was a hard hit line drive/groundball

    Carl Crawford is another one. He's a Braves killer.

    Alvarez's pitch count is ridiculously low so far.

    no strike outs. Hard to run up a pitch count putting everything in play

    Simmons... Wow! Simmons and Peterson are going to be maybe the best ss-2b combo in mlb defensively
