Regarding prejudice against knuckleballers. The Braves refuse to let their pitchers throw knuckleballs, whether they're in the minors or majors. This is apparently a holdover edict from the time when Bobby Cox was GM. This is kind of ironic, given that the Braves once had one of the most successful knuckleballers of all time.

I live in Atlanta and have been a Braves fan for many years. Hence, I've seen a good bit of Andruw Jones. I think it's undeniable that he's put on some weight in the last few years. That leads one to assume that he must have lost some speed but that isn't necessarily the case. For the kinds of short sprints that an outfielder has to make a few extra pounds are not likely to have much effect.
