Francoeur Settles
The Braves and Jeff Francoeur agreed to a $3.375 million dollar contract, avoiding arbitration. I believe that only leaves Ryan Zimmerman facing a hearing.
This is disappointing. Francouer was supposedly going to attend his arbitration hearing, where he would have learned that his season last year was one of the absolute worst seasons by an outfielder in major league history. I wanted him to cry. Because it made me want to cry, watching him try to play baseball.
