Wow.
Should have plenty of money to throw at Turner on a short deal or some BP guys

Yeah, a little long. I am optimistic that he outperforms his contract (especially the next two years). This is what the Braves needed to do. Our strongest teams should be the next few years (while young guys are still making less and Freddie is still in his prime).Quote:

Actually thought about how well Mazara would look as a flyer candidate earlier . Wouldn’t bat an eye lash at thatQuote:

Love this deal! (have no desire to have Turner on this team - **** that)
I like the 1 year deals but sometimes its nice to have a little certainty that doesnt have us scrambling every off-season
Feels like he is scrambling to us because we don’t know what is going on in the background. So far, it appears AA knows what he is doing. Doesn’t seem to be scrambling.Quote:

If we get word that the DH will be back around spring training, I bet AA goes and gets him.
