OK, let’s put a rest to some of these rumors.
First, let’s see what Frank Wren has to say about the Mike Lowell Rumors:
- charmer: 3:03 pm Congratulations on your promotion and staying with the Atlanta Braves. My question for you, are there any truths to the rumor of the Braves acquiring Mike Lowell, and if there is, would Chipper move to the outfield or would he be traded?
frankwren: 3:03 pm Nothing to it at all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OK, what about Ken Griffey Jr.?
- brvsnut:3:14 pm Can you put the rumors to rest — is getting Ken Griffey Jr. really a possibility?
frankwren:3:14 pm I don’t think so…
Here’s some other good questions from that chat with Frank Wren:
- tjwashga:3:31 pm Have you had any discussions with Mark Teixeira on a long-term deal?
frankwren:3:32 pm I have not, but I had a great conversation the night I was named GM and look forward to having him in the middle of the order for this next year and hopefully many more.
- tjwashga:
3:34 pm Will Matt Diaz get an opportunity to be the everyday leftfielder?frankwren:
3:37 pm He has been outstanding the last 2 years in the role Bobby has used him… I’ll just leave it at that and let the Manager decide whats best for the team… got a couple things we are working on that could happen soon and need to get back to the phones… thanks for joining in on this chat and we’ll do it again soon.
I just wanted to get rid of the Lowell and Jr. rumors. Though, I do think Jr is a realistic possiblity.
