A couple years behind the plate, then ends deal as DH/1B. I like it. Of course people will say this screws the kids but Sanchez won't be ready for at least a solid year and is only 20-21. Gives them time to break him in. Makes Romine and/or Murphy available for trade.

I bet Bethancourt is doing backflips.

5 years for $85 million.

Good pickup

Hes going to feast on that short porch, 35hrs wouldnt shock me assuming hes healthy

The only way the Braves can save this offseason is to get someone to take Dan Uggla.

I have a friend (female) that LOVES McCann and the Braves. She is devastated.

Sucks to see him leave.

The AL East should enjoy his unwritten rule enforcement.

She's a cute gal. Her older sister was a school friend of mine, and she's more of a friend to my wife.

ahhhh gotcha.

Cant stand the braves, but they have some really good looking broads that are into them.

Probably more like 2 years for Sanchez. But yeah I really like this signing. Romine, Cervelli, Murphy, or Stewart were not the answers lol. If he can stay healthy I think we could see 260-270 35-40 hrs 100 rbis.

and it looks like someone just bought up all his chrome auto's off ebay

It will be odd to see him in pinstripes.

you can tell Stacy it's okay - there are lots of Braves to crush on.

and, yes, it will be odd to see him in pinstripes. I wonder how he will wear it - Berkman looked awful in pinstripes, IMHO (just check out some of the card photos from his days as a Yankee!)

I wish someone would pay me $17 million for not hitting a baseball 73% of the time.
