After reading the story by the Braves beat writer, it sounds like Chip got railroaded into doing that awful TBS network crap when he wanted to do Braves exclusively. He was HORRIBLE on TBS, but was actually decent when doing radio pre-and post game stuff. I'm really depressed about how the Braves broadcasts have turned into crappy corporate mush.
Also, I forbid Sutton to move to TV, because I like listening to him on the radio. He's getting a rapport going on with Jim Powell and I don't want to screw that up. Lemke needs a year or two more seasoning before be begins his inevitable Ford Frick-winning analyst career.

I have mixed feelings but I'm with you. Bringing back Sutton would be HUGE.
Sutton is a major, and I mean MAJOR improvement over Chip Caray. Nothing to cry over losing that guy.
