Good job. I'm excited to see beachy's return and what it does to the pitching staff. Also when Ayala and walden return will we keep 3 catchers?

I haven't read yet, about to. The one thing that I'm concerned with is our set up guys 7th & 8th inning guys. Losing O'flarety and Venters hurts. You have Avalan who's solid just not as dominant as those two. I think we'll eventually have to make a move to sure up the late inning guys. I know Walden should help once he gets back, but I'd like to have another. Also, do we go to a 6 man rotation once Beachy gets back (OR) who's the odd man out in 5 man rotation? It can't be Maholm, Hudson, or Minor. I think it would be between Teheran and Medlen. I think with the way Teheran has pitched as of late (building confidence) with each start. I'd keep him and send Medlen back to the BP.

Medlen has shown he can do that in the past, but he was Braves ace for last two months last year. These things usually work themselves out. Nice to have six guys, if Beachy comes back strong.

What are the Braves going to do with Gattis and Chris Johnson? What will they do with BJ Upton and Uggla?
