“I do not agree with the way that this was handled on Freddie’s side,” said Jones to 680 The Fan after Freeman signed with the Dodgers in his free agency. “If you want to play in Atlanta, you play in Atlanta. You maybe take a little less to be happy and play in a place that is comfortable for you. The second that Freddie told me that he rejected the 5 for $135 [million] after the All-Star break, I told him, ‘You’re playing a very dangerous game. You go out on the free-agent market, you get courted by all the pretty girls that are on the block, chances are, you’re not gonna come back. If you take your time waiting on that six-year [deal] into January, [Atlanta] has a job to do.'”
I feel zero remorse for Freddie’s tears and leaving us.

Chipper has a brilliant baseball mind. When he talks about the game, it's a pretty good idea to listen to him.

Does that include Hooters waitresses?

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes
He's getting nearly identical AAV on that deal with the Dodgers, he's losing his arse cheeks on CA taxes(relative to GA taxes), and he's clearly in a place he doesn't want to be.
All that for an extra year, which he would have received from the Braves at the end of the proposed 5 year deal. He was set to become the King of Atlanta and he would have cashed out more than enough in post-career opportunities to "make up" for the perceived gap in salary, and some.
