As TPWW's friendly neighborhood Braves fan, I will say I'm happy Tommy Hanson is gone. His mechanics are awful, and he lost a good 7-8 MPH last year on all his pitches. He may be the easiest pitcher to steal a base against in the majors. And he is basically a bullpen's worst nightmare, he usually can only go five innings. And the Braves are apparently gearing up to spend some more cash, I'd imagine, so not a bad cost-cutting measure with the backlog (as much as you can call it that) that they have with starting pitching.
As for the Braves' bullpen, it honestly can't get much better at this point. Need a decent innings eater, maybe.
