Andy Marte, for whom we managed to somehow snag Edgar Renteria from the Red Sox (who turned into Jair Jurrjens and Gorkys Hernandez, part of the package for McLouth), just won the IL PoW award for the week for the second week in a row. He's actually the first player to do so since '06 (Cole Hamels), and with a .320/.362/.541 line plus 11 homers and 46 RBIs to boot through 67 games, he's having his best season since we traded him (and maybe ever.) He's been a disappointment thus far, but maybe he'll turn out to be something after all.

I was lambasted (dont get to use that word often) for saying that the Braves should snatch up Marte and put him at Gwinnett in case of a Chipper injury. Looks like ole’ Andy has a bit left in his tank. Hopefully he can turn things around and make his was back to a MLB roster.

I agreed with you.
