He can still dominate (.280 30 HR'S 100 RBI's) IF HE STAYS HEALTHY! He proved he can do it when he stayed healthy this year, but can he do it?
Another thing you have to look at, how much does he want? You dont want to sign him to a 4 year deal because you can be stuck with a bench player who youre paying $10,000,000 +
I think they should sign him. As long as the contracts less then 13 million, he's a good sign.

I would love it if Griffey were to join the Braves, but I'm not sure that center field would be the best fit for him. Griffey isn't aging anymore, he's basically just old. I think what might work best is if Harris starts in center field, and Griffey platoons with Diaz in left. The injury risk will be smaller with Griffey in left field, plus the platoon would give him a day or two off each week to rest.

The Braves should focus on pitching, that's what they desperately need. They shouldnt give up on Jones, since he would give the Braves as much as Griffey would for less money.

who's griffy? if you mean Junior Griffey, the Braves should be looking to sign or trade for young players, not an aging soon to be retiring future HOFer...

If he can stay healthy he'll be an upgrade in CF from Andruw Jones who strikes out too much and is as streaky a hitter as you'll find anywhere.

It would work for a season or two but he would not be the long term answer as a replacement for Jones.
