How much longer are we Braves fans gonna have too put up w/him?!!? Had one of the worst years @ the plate of any Major Leaguer I can ever remember & so far this season he is 0-8 w/4 K's. Like my dad used too say, "He can't hit his way out of a wet paper bag". Not sure which is worse, his hitting or the fact that Gonzalez has him batting 2nd in the order. I know he is a better than average CF but he is an absolute "Abortion" in the batter's box. :facepalm: Have too try somebody else other than "Blow Job" Upton & although you may lose some defense @ least you will have a chance @ the plate. :shrug:
BJ Upton
- Thread starter Double Two
- Start date
Braves fan here and unfortunately this is Year 2 of a 5 yr deal for 75 million:facepalm:.......Another free agent disaster signing of many in MLB these days.........I am trying to remember the last big free agent deal St. Louis was involved in and not resigning Pujols to a franchise busting contract was a great decision......
Screw the $$$...this guy will cost you anywhere from 15-20 games this year if they continue too start him. Opposing teams can count on @ least 4 outs when he plays assuming he does not hit into any DP's which is highly unlikely cause he rarely makes contact w/the ball & strikes out so much. Admit your mistake & move on Atlanta...PLEASE!!!
"Blow Job" Update
0-2 w/2 K's....0-10 w/6 K's so far this year. This would be funny if it weren't so sad. :facepalm:

"Blow Job" Update
He actually put the ball "In Play" in his 3rd AB!!! :00hour Grounded out too 3rd but that's an improvement. 0-11 on the year w/6 K's.

My God!!!!!! Upton gets his 1st hit of the year!!! A pretty solid single too left. Main thing is that the Braves won me $125.00!!!:yup
