If I'm the Braves, though, I'm going hard after AJ Pollock. Dude is the real deal.

I don't want!
Nick is having a great year, but it's also a contract year and I'm always leery of those. Despite what some people think, Nick has not been very good for us until this year. He's probably had a good enough year to also get more money now than we should be comfortable paying him. He's still not that good of an all around player, in my opinion we can do quite a bit better with the money and trade chips we have.
Nick is probably going to have a higher WAR this year than he had in his first three years with us combined. I don't trust him to continue what hes done this year. Right now he has a higher WAR for this season than he's had in any year over the past 10 seasons. I find that to mean this year is the anomaly.
But nonetheless, thanks a million Nick, I do appreciate what he has done for us this year!
Neck is what, 57 years old? This year is the text book definition of a small sample size. Precedence on aging players having a great year and being near garbage afterwards is pretty set in stone. I'd rather the Braves offer a multi-year deal to the younger version of Neck, Michael Brantley, than extend Neck. Precedence set in stone or past not predictive of the future—>?

I'm not gonna sit here and say that GMs and Managers don't make decisions based on precedent, when it comes to hitting and pitching, because they clearly do, but nobody sits a high level player because he has a history of injuries.

That would be great,but they should heed Keystone and give him a yearly contract Okay, but let's both agree that that's not reality. He's gonna get a multi-year deal and I hope the Braves are the ones who give it to him.
