What I want in my life

This is easy I want 3 things before I die. Braves season tickets, a sky blue 69 dodge charger, and either a moose head or bear skin rug.

Season tickets

I know I said earlier that I wish I lived closer so that I could go to more games. I have a few friends that I might go in on them with and split them up maybe go to like 20 games or so. It just excites me that I might could go to that many games. On the other hand I could go to 2 or 3 games and get good seats so I guess I'll wait until they release prices and crunch some numbers.

Jurrjens/Prado trade rumors

My thoughts are Jurrjens would be a good piece to trade away. He is a great pitcher but you hear people every year showing proof he's playing over his head and he's often injured. So my thoughts flip him before the bubble bursts and then we end up having to keep him with too many pitchers to begin with.

Ok now with Prado I say keep him he can play any position on the field short of pitcher and catcher ( I'm not sure he can't play those positions). As a super utility guy he could be a backup and still start almost everyday of the week.

Now I pushed Prado as a utility guy because I expect Jurrjens will net a starting left fielder and a couple of prospects. But in all honesty if Prado wasn't injured and have a down year we wouldn't need a left fielder we would have one. I'm not Frank Wren so I'll let him make those decisions.

My braves fandom

I read Braves blog's and news in my spare time constantly. I go to a few games a year (I sit in the outfield, I feel close to the game at a cheap price), and I watch what games I can (odd work hours and a wife, need I say more). I wish I lived closer to the field I would go to more games but I live almost 2 hours away. I will be honest I love going to games but when I'm watching on tv it just seems a bit slow and with a dvr and other things distracting me I'm not a good fan. Lol.
