Carlos Collazo (Editor)

Carlos Collazo is a 17 year old Braves fan and baseball fan in general. He has played baseball since the age of 4 and still does in high school today. Carlos began blogging about the Braves as a hobby a few years ago and ever since, it has been a passion. He plans on going to college for Mass Communications with a concentration in Journalism, and Marketing (gotta have some options).

Carlos became the editor of Tomahawk Take on January 25th. He uses a blend of advanced statistics and fan’s perspective in his writing and wants you to know that he doesn’t plan on boring you to death with an endless stream of numbers or trying to convince you that Matt Kemp is the best hitter in the game because he led the league in RBI last year.

He has recently become extremely interested in fantasy baseball and is in the midst of his first ever dynasty league (cross your fingers). Carlos’ favorite player on the current Braves team is Martin Prado, and his favorite Braves prospect is Tyler Pastornicky. His all-time favorite baseball player is Willie Mays.

I grew up in Illinois back when the leagues only had 8 teams. My dad and mom died Cub fans always believing that next year would be it. I was a Cub fan until I realized I didn’t believe Cub ownership wanted to win; they liked being the underdog it was cheaper. I loved the way the Milwaukee Braves played when Red Schoendienst was at 2nd, Joe Adcock at 1st, Eddie Mathews at 3rd and and Hank Arron in the outfield but while dad alive and I lived at home I didn’t say that out loud. I joined the Air Force in 1968 and spent 28 years there, mostly overseas without baseball. When I came back to the US for good in 1991 I started following the Atlanta Braves on TBS and I’ve been with them ever since. My oldest son is a Rangers fan while my youngest is a Braves guy like me. I’m an old school guy I guess, I see no need for a designated pinch hitter and would prefer the All Star game to be about the All Star Game only. I do think replay is needed since the technology is at a point where dependability is very good; close base running plays and line calls but not balls and strikes. I also think we have too many teams but that’s for another day. Go Braves!
