Jordan Schafer had 3 hits in the Braves loss yesterday. His days are numbered despite the excellent spring. The Braves will ultimately go with Josh Anderson as their centerfielder. Josh Anderson is out of options and the Braves do not want to risk losing him to another team via waivers. Schafer will be a pleasant mid-season call up when Garrett Anderson gets hurt.
I do enjoy being wrong at times and injury predictions are always one of them. However, Garrett Anderson is scheduled to play today for the first time since early March, due to a strained calf. I hope Garrett Anderson doesn't catch Chipper Hampton (Chipper Jones and Mike Hampton) Syndrome, where he gets hurt or has a nagging injury once every 15-20 games.

I think Gregor White is the man....he really is. He is a lot better than Josh Anderson
ReplyDeleteGregor Blanco should without a doubt be the opening day center fielder for the Braves.
