Just how bad do B.J. Upton and Dan Uggla suck? Worst I have ever seen!

[D. Bergin]

Not much they can do. They are stuck. If this was the NFL, both would have been cut a long time ago.

Kevin...they suck so bad, they do not deserve to be described as "suck"...it's too good of a word. At this point, they are both a**holes for blowing so bad. I cannot stand when players are this bad and they make that much money. First off, why did the Braves agree to deals with either of these fools? It's not like they were that good to sign them to decent money in the first place...what a shame. You would think teams would learn after a while.

Meanwhile as they are sucking Jason Heyward is batting a robust .145.

At a tenth of the salary, but yeah, he's off to his usual terrible start. Beginning to lose hope that he has "it" or that he's ever gonna find "it" honestly

Recent Braves right field history repeating itself unfortunately. Like Francouer he seems to be a solid citizen but beginning to look like a moderate bust.

This guy, on the other hand, looks to be the real deal.

Franceour has played in the MLB over 9 years and owns a .263 BA. I don't call that a bust. He was an above average batter and had a great OF arm.

If those were my stats, I would consider myself a serviceable MLer.
I think when you look @ Frenchy's best three years and the fact they were his first three by and large and how he could never adjust to ML pitching after they figured out how to pitch to him - he's a moderate bust to me.
And I think Heyward is headed down the same path apparently.

You know what it is? All these guys have been off of the 'roids because they were afraid of getting caught now. That's why they were "decent stars" about 5 years ago but have since sucked really bad. That's the only logical explanation I can think of. How can you suck so bad all of a sudden?
If I can throw out another name: Kemp. I don't know how he could suck so bad after having such MVP numbers. Injuries, sure...but I'm skeptical. I still think it's ridiculous to pay any major leaguer the amount of money these guys are paid for doing jack. And then they get injured and the fans are supposed to cut them slack. I'm sorry, but I ain't cutting slack for any guy who gets paid over $10 Million for playing sports. They get paid ridiculous amounts.....they should expect criticism to come with the territory.
