he’s here

Andrelton Simmons, the Atlanta Braves shortstop prospect who took spring training by storm, made his Mississippi Braves debut tonight. Simmons got a hit in his first Double-A at-bat, facing Mobile at Trustmark Park. Simmons hit .311 with 35 doubles, 52 RBIs and 26 stolen bases at Class A Lynchburg in 2011. And he’s said to be big-league ready with the glove. He should be worth the price of admission at the TeePee, where the M-Braves were off to an 0-4 start.
