Saw this on SI.com today. It’s largely an article about Chipper Jones restructuring his contract (which may be instrumental in keeping Rafael Furcal in Atlanta, which would be great news), but the final paragraph caught my eye:
The Braves have also shown interest in San Diego closer Trevor Hoffman, a free agent who is second on the all-time saves list with 436 — including 43 in 46 chances last season.
Whoa…I seriously don’t know what to think about that one. I firmly believe Trevor Time is a San Diego phenomenon, and it should stay that way. I also think Hoffman’s aging a lot, and I have concerns about his production in the next few years. But still…some stability at the closer position would be nice for the Braves.
Discussion of Trevor Time…in Atlanta? is now closed
We can hope that something will happen that helps the Braves.
