Well folks, the reviews began on October 13th and they concluded on Friday, December 3rd. 33 players from this past season were reviewed, and just about every prospect in the Braves' farm system was covered. I can't speak for all of our phenomenal authors, but I found great joy in reviewing the guys from this past season. After all, it was a pretty wild and magical year. In case you missed any of the reviews (or would like to re-read them in the future), here are all of them. Enjoy.

Well, there it is. Even though we have concluded all our reviews, don't think for one minute the coverage on Talking Chop will end. Next week, we'll be unveiling our top-25 prospects lists, and the readers will also be allowed to compose their top-25 lists. We'll also have full coverage of the Winter Meetings, and as always, we'll be on top of any breaking news.
Thank you to all of our readers. Without you, this site wouldn't exist. Let's all have a great rest of 2010 and even better 2011.

There's more?...
I woulda swore your lazy asses were shutting things down until pitchers and catchers report. Because you are all lazy, and in some cases bet whelchers.
Mr. Sanchez - December 5, 2010
A sincere thanks
for all the hard work you all put into this site. I know I don’t post much, but I literally come here every day to check out the updates and see what everyone else is saying. This is by far my favorite website.

Detailed summaries on the performances of thirty-three players and a multitude of prospects, pro bono? Sounds like lazy journalism to me.
I kid. Great job to all involved.

Keep that trophy nice and shiny for us next year. ;)
TonyAlmeyda - December 5, 2010
Jayson Werth to the Nationals?
What?
Scott Coleman - December 5, 2010 via mobile
I dont like it...
We still have to face him every year an that make Gardener and Ellsbury less likley
JonnyBravesFan - December 5, 2010 via mobile
they were never "likely" in the first place
Mr. Sanchez - December 5, 2010
I don't know when I laughed more
Werth to the Nats or Werth for 7 years
GoBravesNY - December 5, 2010
The Nationals are incredibly stupid.
Their young guys won’t be ready for at least two years, and what does a guy like Dunn or Werth do for them? An extra 5 wins, so they’re 65-97 instead of 60-102?
Stupid. I’ll take it though.
Scott Coleman - December 5, 2010 via mobile
I guessed it...
Proofs in rosterbation thread.
All it does is appease the Nats fans. I figured Lee would be signed before this, making them even more desperate before settling on Werth. They must be more desperate than previously thought.

You ain't the only one...
no OF, a prime free agent OF from within the division to a team that’s been begging to sign a big name free agent for a little while now? Too much of a fit for this not to happen.
Mr. Sanchez - December 5, 2010
If they signed Owen Wilson, then they deserve to be called stupid.
TheLetter2 - December 5, 2010
The Adrian Gonzalez-Red Sox deal hit a snag. Gonzalez apparently wanted an eight-year contract and didn’t get it.
TonyAlmeyda - December 5, 2010
Yayyy Talking Chop offseason homework!
