Chipper out which is too bad but Francisco looked good last game with a homer and double. I'm eager to see if he can keep it up... I really like his power potential. I'm glad that when Chipper sits it's a young guy with potential coming in rather than Brooks Conrad or something.

Freeman demolished NL West pitching last year. To the point where he is probably more fearsome and intimidating than a hot Heyward.

what have you done for me lately on defense is my concern with fransisco. i'll be saying that all season

Yeah, hopefully that 3 error game was a fluke and that it stays in the past. He's capable of making some great plays though just needs to be more consistent.

sure i'll come around to him on defense. not many people play really bad defense for extended periods of time. he will be more consistent for sure.

True.. you are probably right. I think I'm just paranoid about keeping pressure off of Heyward to rebound. Although we also shouldn't be so down on Freeman's slow start quite yet in my opinion.

Not down on Freeman i love his ability perfect 5 or 6 hitter but Heyward is the next big bopper middle of the lineup guy and should get used to it because not only is he smashing the ball this year and deserves it but its where he should be in the long run
