I knew KJ playing well would lead to his trade. Sucks. It was great having him back in a Braves uni. Really sucks he was traded to the Mets.

KJ "it was just a shock to be traded to a division team only trailing a few games back".
Seems like KJ and the other guys still felt they had a chance to make a run.
I would have been happier if it was Wuilmer Becerra and Eudor Garcia. Both are further away but have more upside and are bats.
Well Rob Whalen slots in at #24 on our MLBPipeline list, while John Gant is one slot lower at #25. Kind of odd that they would put those two back to back in our farm system, whereas in the Mets system, Whalen was ranked 18th, while Gant wasn't in their top 30.
This is the point that the trade I proposed earlier with the Giants makes sense. Maybin, Pierzynski, and Jim Johnson for Andrew Susac, Mac Williamson, and Ray Black saves you another $4.24 million.
Suddenly that's almost $7 million you can devote to international signings/overage taxes next July.
