| November 11, 2004 J.D. Drew has garnered a lot of interest on the free agent market, and his agent Scott Boras said that was in part because Drew proved he could handle playing center field when he filled in for Andruw Jones several times last season, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. |
| September 26, 2004 J.D. Drew was out of the lineup for the Braves on Saturday and will probably be out again today, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Bobby Cox said "I'm going to give J.D. [Drew] two days off. I think he needs it. He's lost a little weight lately." |

| August 15, 2004 The Braves have not yet thought about trying to re-sign J.D. Drew beyond this season, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Drew has enjoyed the best season of his career this season, in part because of his ability to stay healthy. |

| February 7, 2004 J.D. Drew has spent the winter trying to strengthen his right knee and right quad, according to the AP.
