Authograph Collection: Martin Prado

I think its safe to sat at this point that Martin Prado is my favorite Brave. He plays with a fire and a passion that I think this team has missed for a long time, and I'm going back into the run of division championships here. People will think I'm borderline insane here, but he reminds me a lot of Terry Pendleton during the 91 and 92 seasons. He's a hitting machine and more importantly, he's a VOCAL leader who will do whatever it takes to fire up his teammates.

Perhaps the ultimate compliment to Prado came from Brian McCann who said that he has played with Prado at every level of the minors and in the majors, and he's been the best player on every team.

Keep it up Martin ... I don't think this team can do it without you.

I love this card! Topps needs to get Prado autos into their product!

I could not agree more my friend!

Hopefully, after the year he's having, he'll be a priority next year. (Gotta say, I'd love to see them get some Infante autos in a Braves uni as well.)
