When we get a guy who wants to be here, and plays his heart out, we embrace him, and we cheer them on, motivate them, and make them one of our own.

He's only here because the money was right. He would've gone to the Giants if they offered more money.

The Cubs are also my 2nd favourite, after Braves. I wish Dansby and his wife the best.

Braves fan since 1966( I was 12) . Congrats and good luck to Dansby.

ikr it’s pissing me off

calling dansby unproven is exactly why you don't understand LMAO

A former MVP, yes. But also a .200 hitter the last couple seasons

Really? An unproven player who won a WS and was an allstar and a gold glove last year. Really sounds unproven.

Former MVP is only worth a 1 year deal to the Cubs. Might want to check your stats and the definition of unproven.

Ikr this really affected my ability to listen to the press conference

@@jacobthorson1749 can't believe I was so stupid as to want to watch a video instead of just listen while staring at my wall

🙂🙂🙂

A 100 milion from the braves wasnt enough a shame i wantvpull for him any more

@@randywright2533 obviously God knows the value of money!!!

It's almost been a year ago but when you're best employee does everything for you and brings you a world championship and MVP and you can't give him a 6th year you become known as a dick head Alex Matt Olson not even close to the clutch player that Freddie Freeman is a 300 hitter does not slump when we let Freeman go are chances to repeat were done and now this year we're not as good as we were last year and teams have got better and we're at the salary cap is Alex really doing that good of a job no other GM we've had has been able to spend money I know it's time to move on about Freeman but I miss watching the dude play every night brings a tear to my eye not watching him in a Braves uniform he's a great guy I think the team will take a step back this year

They replaced Freeman with another 'hometown dude'. Swanson ? He was great, but what do you do with Grissom ? Shewmake is coming up, too. Braves might be better without Swanson.

Good luck with that!

The Braves will be just fine

Life long Braves fan, first and foremost. Grew up with WGN and Harry Carey and Steve Stone. Great duo and Hall of Famers. Congratulations on signing Dansby . Personally feel he is best Defensive Shortstop in baseball. Offensively he has challenges and he will continue to battle those each and every year, to not fall into the bad habits he has a tenancy to fall into at times. Not bashing him at all and hope he has a All Star year every year, except when he plays Braves of course. He in my opinion is not worth 24 million or whatever Cubs are paying him . Just my opinion. Braves have plenty of great players and feel we can make up offensive he contributed at other positions and due it for less money . We can spend money on other players to have a more well rounded team. My Braves are trying to have consistency each and every year and to do that we have to all business when making decisions on players and we have to draft well and develop those players. Second we cant let personal feelings guide our decisions. But I grew up playing this great game and was taught alot about life with the great coaches and players I was blessed to play with . Honestly people won't probably believe me but at a early age I learned not from great people not to never ever do ANYTHING for 💰 being the driving force. That's for several reasons I won't go into. But I would honestly love to of had the talent to play in the Major Leagues , but I didn't , but I would have honestly played for much less money than players ask for now and one reason would be I feel players lose their edge after becoming that wealthy. 💰 Comes with it own set of problems that no one ever really talks about. Plus many other reasons . I will root for the Cubs when not playing Braves and wish Dansby nothing but the best.
