Normally I would agree, but Coors helps flyballs get over the fence, not ground balls jump them (Desmonds FB rate has averaged 30% the last three years while his GB rate is 52%). Anything can happen, but I have trouble seeing it.Deadheadz wrote:Coors will boost Desmond's production.

What could go wrong? While the iron is hot, maybe the Braves can trade them Bartolo and an order of cold fries for Arrenado.
Did not see this coming....
But thanks for making my case for Barto! Arrenado...Welcome to Atlanta!
