I honestly think your team is at the start of a major rebuild THIS year was gonna be the last year where they could compete with a "supposedly" strong rotation of Smoltz/Glavine/Hudson/Hampton & Reyes/Jurrjens (I think James is at best a #6) & a solid line up.
Now all the above are 1 year older plus more or less injured & Tex & Kotsay have gone.The team NEEDS IMO a 2 year building period (a la Oakland As) to be ready to challenge in 2010/11 when those Kids - Escobar/Rasmus/Gorkys Hernandez & the glut of P prospects (Reyes/Jurrjens/Parr but also Morton,Hanson,Cuervas et all will be ready)
If anything your best BET is to let Chipper walk & get to High Picks & try & see if Lillibridge/Flowers or Prado can handle the position.

I dont think i can converse with u any more :p we CANT let the face of the franchise walk. I would rather stink an extra year or 2 then see him in another uniform
