    Pretty good poll question, I'm going Heyward, but it could easily be any of the 3.

    Assuming standard 5X5; most likely Justin Upton.

    All three guys project for 25-30HR and 15-20SB and JUpton will have the advantage in Avg.

    The real big question is how the Lineup will shake out; I think JUpton is most likely to bat 3 or 5 giving him more RBI/Run opps than BJ who will likely be hitting 6/7 (or 1st if Fredi in insane,so that plausible) or Hayward 2

    Heyward, it's time for him to bust out.

    all get drafted too early, not touching any, complete tossup

    I'm going with J. Upton. I think he is primed to regroup and show what he can do.

    Jason Heyward is the correct answer.

    I'm glad no one has voted for jjgold yet. Though if you feel the same way as ttwarrior then I suppose its okay to vote that.

    Uptons are perennial underachievers, I think the Braves made a mistake going after them.

    I'm not a real fan of BJ Upton. I'd have to go with Heyward and think with a solid lineup and a healthy season he will bust out from the 3.

    I'd rank them as follows:

    1) Heyward
    2) Justin
    3) B.J.
    4) J.J.

    I think a new team will help Upton have a break out season. Imo

    This. But if they ever do live up to it, watch out.

    Upton will always be a guy that never lived up to his potential.

    Nothing more.

    Both Uptons strike out way too much for their speed.

    I'd go with BJ Upton. Heyward seems unreliable to me. He can be great but then go through a major slump.

    I voted for JJ, because I was amused.


    So, where is Michael Bourn gonna go?
    Or does he have the worst agent in professional sports?

    Going to be interesting to see how the Braves do. Upton's and Heyward, solid OF.

    All will probably be drafted to early, but all are worth a roster spot.
    All strikeout to much, but imo BJ would be my first choice.

    My thinking as well, they all get taken too early for my liking.

    I'm a huge braves fan and still cant believe we went and got both uptons. All I keep here is if if if they live up to their potential. Maybe being together on a contender will help but still risky i think

    Do you want Michael Bourn to leave, as a Braves fan?

    The best fit I see is the Mets for Bourn.

    Boston, Seattle might pony up the dough. But Bourn is running out of options, no doubt about that.

    I think Justin Upton will but Heyward has more upside.

    well bourn already left

    honestly I think they should've kept bourn instead of one of the Uptons

    they love their black OFs, that's for sure
