Most players get tempestuous when they struggle for this long. BJ never hid from the media and never demanded playing time he hadn't earned. I have a world of respect for athletes with that sort of awareness.

Really, this entire Braves team consists of good people. That's very refreshing for me as a sports fan.

- I loved that contract even though I wasn't crazy about the signing. Now, $15M annually seems catastrophic. - David Oct 3, 09:29
