A look at the Braves off-season

Via Mets Fever  |  January 31, 2012
The Atlanta Braves finished last year in second place in the NL East with a record of 89-73. They missed the playoffs by one game, while losing the last five straight games and went 8-18 in the month of Sept. For the Braves they have great young pitching, it's a matter of keeping everyone healthy and getting enough offense. There has been more subtraction then additions as four...

2012 Player Preview: Jaye Chapman

Via Chop-N-Change  |  February 01, 2012
Jaye Chapman is a guy who I think is going to be seriously considered for a slot in the major league bullpen this spring. Chapman had a fantastic season, split between Mississippi and Gwinnett. Between the two levels, he struck out 77 while walking 31 in 68 1/3 innings. While the walk rate is a little high, it's not at the point of someone like Billy Bullock's, which is just...

Brandon Beachy’s Secret Weapon

Via Fangraphs  |  January 31, 2012
Brandon Beachy turned in one of baseball’s most surprising performances this past season. After rising through the Atlanta Braves’ minor league system in 2010, Beachy wrestled the fifth starter slot away from Mike Minor in 2011. The undrafted Beachy shocked the baseball world, posting a 28.6% strikeout rate, 3.19 FIP and 3.16 xFIP en route to 2.8 win season. While his...

Top 30 Braves Prospects: #20-16

For #30-21, click here20. Kyle KubitzaKubitza, a third round pick in 2011, immediately showed flashes of brilliance during his professional debut in Danville. The 21 year-old OPSed .880, and showed a very complete game, with 24 walks in 190 plate appearances, nine stolen bases (caught three times), and a .164 ISO. One thing that concerns me is the one home run he hit, but he never...

2012 Player Preview: Michael Bourn

Via Chop-N-Change  |  January 31, 2012
I am way behind on these. I know, I suck. Going to get a few of these done today and tomorrow to get back on track.The Braves acquired Bourn on July 31st last year from the Houston Astros for a quartet of minor leaguers, none of whom the team will really miss: Jordan Schafer (a center fielder who failed in multiple stints in the majors), Juan Abreu (live-armed reliever who never...

Peter Gammons chats with Jason Heyward

Via Diamond Hoggers  |  January 31, 2012
I like Peter Gammons, and I like Jason Heyward. Naturally, anytime anything occurs involving both of them and I run across it, that item will end up on this blog. Had I not made the trip over to Baseball Musings today I would have missed this. Gammons wrote on MLB.com about Heyward’s injury affecting his swing last season. In June, batting .234, Heyward went on the disabled...
