is francoeur a stud or what?

I guess there's a reason he was the #1 prospect in the organization and one of the top in baseball period, huh?

He's the next face of the Atlanta Braves.

All I can say is, WOW!!

Think about all that great talent. I'm impressed.

Rookie catcher, Smoltz personal, as all the others -

Impressive !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sample size, people! He only has 22 AB!

Don't judge until he gets 300+. Players can get hot/cold in a hurry.

Seriously.

I fully expect Francouer to struggle this season.

Braves once called up a 3Bman named Jose Oliva and he hit 6 homers in his first 10 games or so. Fans wanted to put Terry Pendleton on the pine to start Oliva. He quickly turned into a bust when pitchers figured out that he couldn't hit anything crooked.

for the rest of the season. It's just unrealistic. But I definitely think he's earned himself a spot on the roster.. and who knows, he could keep up this pace. We can't completely rule it out. He's got size, power, a good eye, a great arm, great speed and a great attitude to boot. He's a total package player that could develop into one of the leagues best.
