With Smoltz signed, is Andrew Jones gone?
Question:Now that the Atlanta Braves have paid out big money for Smoltz to stay the last few years, does that mean Andrew Jones is as good as gone for next year? I heard a lot of people saying it was either him or Smoltz, but they could not have both.

What do you think about the start of the season for the Braves? Do they have a chance?
The owners of the Braves, Liberty Media Group only bought the Braves to tie up their money so they wouldn't have to pay so many taxes on the several hundred million they had in the bank. Chipper Jones said before the year he thought Andruw would be back, but I don't see how Liberty Media is going to come close to matching the 130-140 million Boston will offer Andruw.Baseball cards - looking for web site w/explanations regarding..?
I think they will sign Andrew Jones to a long term contract. He IS the Braves as is Smoltz, so I don't see the Braves letting him go. Look for a contract extension very soon.Chow!!

First its Andruw with a 'u';-), and I think he will be around for one more season if the Braves are in contention late this season. If we are out of it by the end of July, they may go looking to dump salary before the treade deadline. I think he will still be on the roster next season if they make a decent post season run. Schuerholz isn't one for dumping talent just b/c of $$. He needs a promising prospect waiting in the wings first.Has an Major League Baseball team gone an entire season without being swept by any other team?
It's pretty unlikely that the Braves will resign Andruw Jones, seeing is how Smoltz's new deal will eat up $ 14 million. Glad the Braves signed Smoltzie to a new contract, though. It means he'll finish his career as a Brave. I think 'Druw is probably having his last go-around with Atlanta this season.Does Nomar GarciaParra have OCD?

I'm a Braves fan. I am glad to see that Smotzie will most likely finish his career with Atlanta! As for Andruw...I don't know. I sure hope he stays...but it's baseball & it's business. So time will tell.IF the new ownership takes over before the season ends. Then that will make a difference. Libert Media Group will want to make a splash with a Huge move of resigning Andruw Jones.
