billy conscious effort family heard rather rumors somewhere trade traded
I wasn't that shocked, I had heard the rumors that something could happen, so it wasn't out of the blue. I think that if Billy were going to trade me, he was going to make a conscious effort to trade me somewhere where my family would be happy. And there isn't another place that I'd rather be traded to than Atlanta.

I was a huge fan of Bobby Cox, a huge fan of Chipper Jones and John Smoltz. And just those guys, I grew up watching those guys and often wondered early on in my career if I would ever have the chance to play for the Atlanta Braves, and there it was. God kind of answered my prayers.
