The Atlanta Braves - Hello darkness

True, but seeing how those three helped Texas get to the WS makes you wonder.

I mean we traded a 30 win player for barely a full year of Teixiera and didn’t make the playoffs so it was a disaster. They probably beat the Giants in 2010 and in 2011 definitely make the playoffs with Feliz/Andrus/Harrison.

We had just had Sheffield and Javy Walk. I think Eli Marrero was in that deal too and he was very good in Atlanta IIRC

Yeah but supposedly the Braves didn't care if Sheffield moved on because he didn't fit with the sainted BRAVES CULTURE. I just remember that Cox and Schuerholz really acted taken aback when Drew did the most predictable thing in the world and acted like a free agent who wanted the most money. BUT BUT THE GRAND OLD ORGANIZATION! HOW DARE HE!!!1

Late-career Schuerholz made moves as though the future did not exist. i don't disagree that Drew was great during his one year in Atlanta. But Walt Jocketty saw a sucker and bent Schuerholz over like Marcellus Wallace.
