Welcome to Andrea's Andres Galarraga Page!

I will be the first to admit that I wasn't too pleased when the Braves signed Galarraga this year. I thought all of the usual arguments--he's too old, he can't hit outside Coors Field, etc. But I will also be the first to admit that I'm now a huge fan of the Big Cat. I'm glad to say I was wrong. His huge bat and his great defense at first base is a welcome addition to the Braves' lineup.

This is my little tribute to Galarraga. If you've visited my other Braves pages, you know the drill. Here is the Big Cat's biography, a great picture, and links to some great Galarraga sites as well as a link to my collection of pictures. Enjoy!
