For Us Fans of El Oso Blanco, It will ALWAYS be Personal!

Too often, I am told that I have no business taking whatever decisions are made about Evan Gattis personally. That it is "just the business of baseball." Well, when you get rid of a player and man like Evan, or even put the idea into the heads of the decision makers, the supposed "business move" you are making or just made, greatly affects the fans personally. In turn, your particular business, in this case the Braves organization, will suffer....TREMENDOUSLY! Ticket sales will continue to plummet, merchandise sales from the Oso Blanco hats, t-shirts, etc. All because after two seasons with a better-than-the-rest player, you decide to want to hand him over because of speculation of what you MIGHT get.

May I suggest, Atlanta Braves, that you actually invest in the impact players like Evan, and find other ways to rid yourself of the bad ones. You'll be going down a slippery slope if you do not.

Yeah, I have EVERY right to take this trade talk of Evan PERSONALLY!!!!
