    We gave up essentially nothing for a right handed platoon bat, the sky isn't falling man.

    This is what I tried getting across to ppl because none of the other 3 were in the future plans for the Braves. Sooner or later he'll drop a few bombs and even if one is enough to pull out a W where it otherwise would have been a loss; then the trade was worth it.

    You seem to not understand net gain vs net loss.
    If he is unproductive in 18 at bats, then hits a HR, he's still a HUGE net negative because you're losing all of the hits just a decent contact hitter would have given you from those 18 wasted at bats. You need to grasp the fact those few home runs will be anything but free.

    Dude it does no good trying to get thru to you. You could be looking at the answer book for a test and argue with it. WHAT WERE THE 3 WE TRADED DOING TO PUT UP WINS FOR THE ATLANTA BRAVES? Not Gwinett.. I played pro ball and ran an academy for a decade and your telling me I don't know how this stuff works? Who was your 1st pro hit off of? What hs records do you still have 17 years later? IMO Ender has came around lately hitting lefty's almost as good as righties. So IF it was up to me Duvall would simply be a right handed bat off the bench! But I know baseball if I know anything, so bite me if you don't like my opinion! We all have different one's, but for some reason you think people value hearing your's more... This is a forum to put your opinions, not tell people what you think of their's! PPl aren't kidding when they msg ya and say that dude is clueless and will find something to argue about with everybody! When you get 4 of those about the same guy, that should say something. Us DAWG fans that enjoy getting on here to give different ways to look at something gets ruined because some ppl like you put on your war paint and login and think YOUR opinion is special and is ALWAYS correct!

    Blow harder, maybe you'll make sense then.
