Jordan Schafer Injury: More Pressure On Braves To Trade?

Look, it’s not like Schafer’s been exactly tearing things up. His batting line this season -- .234/.300/.313 -- is essentially the same as his 2009 line, which got him exiled to the minors for a full season-and-a-half. Frankly, the Braves would be better with almost anyone else in the lineup; if a stint on the Disabled List is what it takes to get manager Fredi Gonzalez to stop writing Schafer’s name on the lineup card -- usually in the leadoff slot, no less -- maybe this whole thing is a blessing in disguise. With all due respect.
