    I voted for Anderson. He would look good at the top of the order for the Braves and possesses the most speed out of any of the three. Schafer plays the best defense out of all of them but think he needs more time to work on his offense.

    I took schafer cause if he's on the MLB roster it's cause he's ready on offense and would be the best leadoff option of the 3

    Schafer is playing like he is ready, but we need to remember that he only got to AA action last season and even that was limited since he had a 50 game suspension for HGH. I think the Braves should send him to AAA as he appears to be the longterm best option for CF, but give Anderson it on Opening Day as he has played solid for both the Braves and Astros systems and does bring a lot of speed to the top of the order.

    I should have listed Gregor Blanco too. Forgot Gregor. How can anyone forget a name like Gregor.

    Definitely won't be Anderson since he was traded to the Tigers.

    Schafer it is. Blanco was sent down to AAA Gwinnett today.

He's too strikeout prone to hit for a high average right now, but he should be pretty valuable in NL-only leagues anyway.
    I had a feeling it would be Schafer. Hopefully he can fill the spot throughout the season without any problems.

    Hey, I didn't realize Jason Heyward, who should have been a poll option, is the son of the late Craig "Ironhead" Heyward. I loved Ironhead's commercial for Zest body wash and the lather "thingie".
