The list of Braves players being ushered to the exit for non-performance reasons is growing:
- Wandy Rodriguez (though this one looks to have been an error)
- Trevor Cahill (released yesterday)
- Chien-Ming Wang (released this week)
- multiple relief pitchers
The next name coming up on this list could be that of Chris Johnson.
At the time of the trade with Los Angeles, it seemed that the Braves were merely upgrading the position – offensively and defensively – from what Callaspo had been providing.
