Who will be the next big player for the Atlanta Braves after Chipper Jones retires? Does Heyward have the right stuff?

Nope.
We actually have a new setting for the FCB. Every time a member trolls, we take away a little bandwidth.

Words of caution though, think of how much time/money the Braves PR staff wrapped into Francoeur, and how far that got them, and he had the benefit a great debut in the ML (not comparing Heyward to Francoeur, just acknowledging the marketing risks of trying to make a player the face of the franchise in his first couple years)

They are pitchers capable of being franchise players
