Latest Braves updates

The Braves suffered a tough loss losing to the Reds 3 to 1 after a strong outing by Randall Delgado. Johnny Venters gave up two runs and suffered the loss. Coming into todays action though, Atlanta had just swept the St. Louis Cardnials, and are now a half game out of first place for the NL East. They howver have a big lead in the wildcard. In the Braves rumor mill, they signed 27 year old veteran Felix Pie, who has been hitting a .330 clip this year, and hit for the cycle in 2009 with the Baltimore Orioles. When deemed ready to come to the bigs, Pie will serve as a bench player providing speed, and many starts giving guys like Prado, Bourn, or Heyward the day off. Agent Scott Boras has indeed spoken to Frank Wren about resigning a red hot Micheal Bourn. A deal is very well possible, but more likely when the season comes to a halt. If a contract can be signed the Braves are looking at a 5 year 60 millon dollar deal which could conceal the arguabely best leadoff hitter in the bigs. Your thoughts? Comment below, and GO BRAVES!!!
