BRIAN MCCANN RUMORS & GOSSIP

Player Profile #63: Brian McCann | C | ATL

Can you even doubt Brian McCann at this point? He’s been one of the most consistent players at the position over the last six seasons and had it not been for an injury, McCann would’ve had a career high in home runs. Sure his RBI totals were down a bit from previous seasons, but we can attribute that batters around him (Dan Uggla, Jason Heyward) slumping for most of 2012...

Brian McCann Player Projection No. 74

Key Stats: Brian McCann has been the steady force at the catcher position over the last six years. He has finished with at least 20 home runs every season except one (he hit 18), he is a career .286 hitter, and has a career .844 OPS. He's also only going to be 28 this coming season. If you are going to go big early on catcher, it's nice that there's a consistent player...

2012 Player Preview: JC Boscan

I missed this one yesterday....double shot of profiles coming today!JC Boscan isn't going to be threatening Brian McCann's job in Atlanta this season, and he's not going to be threatening David Ross's job either. Boscan is what he is: a career minor league catcher who has only brief cups of coffee in the majors as a third catcher. He's been in the Braves organization...

Atlanta Braves Outlook for 2012: Catcher

With the Atlanta Braves offseason quite possibly completed, it is time to do my yearly outlook for the upcoming season for the Braves, position by position. I started this last year and it seemed to be a hit with fans and readers of the blog. The first installment will look at the Braves’ catchers. They have arguably the best offensive catcher in the game in Brian McCann...

McCann sets Braves record with Silver Slugger

Brian McCann made history Wednesday night when he earned his fifth Silver Slugger as an Atlanta Brave. No other Atlanta Brave had won more than four. With his fifth straight Silver Slugger in six full seasons of eligibility, McCann passed outfielder, two-time National League MVP and should-be Hall of Famer Dale Murphy and pitcher and future Hall of Famer Tom Glavine, both of whom...

Please, Don’t Panic! Losing McCann Hurts, but Losing Trades Hurt Worse and for Longer

It was inevitable that the Atlanta Braves rumors would intensify after the grueling “win” that they had last night..er…this morning over the Pittsburgh Pirates. The 19 inning marathon in which Jerry Meals saved his worst call of the night for last. It was unbelievable, to be honest. All the heat that Meals will undoubtedly take because of that call will no doubt...

Brian McCann Headed to DL with Strained Oblique

The bad news came quickly for the Atlanta Braves. Their stalwart and MVP, Brian McCann will be placed on the disabled list tomorrow after suffering a strained oblique muscle in the 10th inning. This is a blow that hurts the Braves badly. Though, the positive is that the Braves have David Ross on the team. He could be a starter on many MLB teams. McCann, however, is one of the...

Brian McCann Leaves Game Late with Injury

If there was news that came out of Atlanta that no one needed or wanted to hear, it is that All-Star Brian McCann had to be removed because of an injury in the 10th inning when he threw to 2nd base to try to catch a stealing Pittsburgh player in Neil Walker. The injury was to his back. No word yet as to the seriousness or the extent of the injury. Could be a pulled muscle or strained...

Its Time for the Braves to Make a Move

The Atlanta Braves finished off a nice home-stand, excluding the meltdown against the Washington Nationals, as they swept the Houston Astros after being dominated by Wandy Rodriguez for 8 innings. They rallied behind a pinch-hit home run by Brian McCann and a two-run home run by Brian McCann (redundant isn’t it) in the 11th inning to sweep the Astros 3-1. The Brave now...
