RE: Justin Upton traded to the Braves....Done Deal !!!
Great trade for Alanta, They got to keep the top prospects like Teheran and Simms. Prado's best asset was his versatility, but with Justin Upton in the Outfield, Prado basically becomes a third baseman, one who last year hit less RBI (10) and Homeruns (5)than the other guy the Braves added in Chris Johnson. While I feel Prado is superior to Chris Johnson, I think the Braves stole this trade

Didn't see that coming. Thought it was just talk about a trade, never thought one would get done.

RE: Justin Upton traded to the Braves....Done Deal !!!
As a dbacks fan I feel 2 things right now, disappointment and relief. Disappointment cause Upton was supposed to be a superstar player and never came close to that status and relieved that I don't have to hope and pray he lives up to the hype anymore. He is an immature, lazy, cocky player who gives the braves an above average bat with lackluster defense. He is a good player but don't expect a superstar.

Alllllright...now the Braves have picked up two stiffs to go with thier over-rated right fielder and let thier best outfielder go......can't wait for the season to start! Go Phils!
