Who Should Braves Play In Center Field? 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Wed May 29, 2013 11:56 am

The Braves have a problem on their hands when it comes to who should be playing center field.


They signed B.J. Upton to a $75 million deal to handle the position, but Jordan Schafer has played well and moving Jason Heyward to center is an option as well.


Moving Heyward to center allows Justin Upton to slide to right and Evan Gattis to play left. Fredi Gonzalez is then able to keep Gattis' bat in the lineup, while playing Brian McCann at catcher.


Of course, this wouldn't be a debate if B.J. Upton wasn't hitting .148/.236/.252 after 176 plate appearances.
