48 Year old Everyday First Baseman?

Yes, the Braves have 22 year old Jarrod Saltalamacchia sitting while they play 48 year old Julio Franco at 1B.

I don't understand this at all. It appears taht they are very close to a deal to get Mark Texiera from the Texas Rangers in exchange for Salty and some other prospects...but wouldn't you want to have Salty at the first sack instead of Julio?

I like Julio, but c'mon.

Pete Orr went 4-5 for Richmond last night.
