I'm also not sure people understand how much Brittle should have retired a year or two ago rather than handcuff the club with his salary & increasingly unreliable body.

It's been 9 years since he last managed a 150 game season, but when your salary is more than double that of all but two players (Uggla & Hudson) on the roster, I'd say 140-150 isn't unreasonable for a position player. It's also been a decade since he last managed to hit over .200 in the post-season.

Thanks for the good years but good riddance at this point afaic.
