Francour asks for 4 million in arbitration!

Good Lord,

After his worst season in the majors, he is more than one million dollars off from what we want to pay him.

With Heyward on the Horizon, I have to imagine his time is short in Atlanta.

Many teams asked about him last season, KC being one of them, so I would like for us to see what we can get for him. However, that doesn't necessary mean I want him to be traded, but if he turns things around early this season I would strongly consider moving the hometown kid.

I don't like the idea of paying him 4 million.

Well my thought is this - he pretty clearly isn't a star player. I still want Dunn this offseason.

Next year I would like our outfield to look like this:

LF - Dunn
CF - Schafer
RF - Heyward
