Wrong. The trade makes sense on one level. Jeff Francouer has a higher ceiling than Ryan Church. That is undeniable and a good thing to shoot for in a season where it may be time to start being sellers and work towards next season. To look at some of the reasons Francouer doesn’t make sense, [...]

As we reported on Friday, the Braves traded an under-performing outfielder, Jeff Francoeur, to the Mets for an under-performing outfielder, Ryan Church. My theory? The general managers were just bored. Saturday's Dugout is after the jump.The Dugout: The Most Even Trade Ever originally appeared on Fanhouse...

Omar Minaya had to find a way to sell some sort of hope to his team as well as his fan base as the Mets' season collapses around him, and that's what he has done here, trading Ryan Church to the Braves for Jeff Francoeur.

The Mets traded Ryan Church to the Braves for Jeff Francoeur. Hopefully this isn’t what the Braves needed to take the division, but I’m more concerned about Jeff. He’s hitting .250, which is more than he hit last year, and has five home runs.
Presumably it was power and defense that attracted Omar to Francoeur. He does have a good arm. I don’t know...

A trade that was just announced: The New York Mets have traded right fielder Ryan Church to the Atlanta Braves for struggling right fielder Jeff Francoeur.
I'd have to say the Braves win this trade, as they get a good young hitter in Church.
This is the second outfielder the Braves have acquired, the first being Nate McLouth.
So far this season, Church is hitting .280 with two...

In a move that truly surprised me, the Atlanta Braves traded Jeff "Golden Boy" Francoeur to the New York Mets for Ryan Church.
From all I can gather, the two are a wash on defense.
Francoeur has the better arm, but Church has the better range.
The issue lies with the bat.
Is Church an upgrade at all? Or is he going stick his left-handed bat in the lineup and stink up...

DENVER — An outfielder was traded at Coors Field today. And it was a right fielder. But it wasn’t Ryan Spilborghs. The Braves gave up on hometown kid Jeff Francoeur, shipping him to the rival Mets for outfielder Ryan Church. Atlanta has been looking to unload Frenchy for weeks, tired of his impatience and inability [...]
