In Honor

It's been a year since the trading of my favorite Brave of all time. Jeff Francoeur's 4-year career with the Braves amplified my love for the team like never before.

And while now, the Braves are actually winning--they're in first place in the NL East, and Jason Heyward is holding his own in right field--earning an all-star spot after only being in the majors for 3 1/2 months, and part of the time out with a thumb injury, I still miss "Frenchy".

So in honor of the trade anniversary, I thought it would only be appropriate to re-post what I wrote a year ago. Enjoy!
