To be president of the BBWAA, don't you have to cover a baseball team? I don't think being its mouthpiece really qualifies you.

Congrats to them. David O'Brien is AJC's beat writer for the braves, and does a very good job.

Agreed. After the lame years of IJ Rosenberg as beat writer, Dave O'Brien was a breath of fresh air. he covers the team very well.
