The Atlanta Braves signed Nick Markakis for 4/45 - Never forget 12/3/2014

"Chris Bosh is the MVP of the Miami Heat" - Heyward
"Hibbert is better than Dwight Howard"- Heyward

Guessing Trumbo will play in left field? That is some serious right handed pop they have now with Goldschmidt and Trumbo.
lol
i remember when the dbacks were bragging about the up and coming trio of corbin/skaggs/bauer. only 1 left
then again, same thing happened with teheran/vizcaino/delgado
Mariners sign Corey Hart, still think they need at LEAST 2 more bats to make the Cano signing worth a damn.
Nats trade for Blevins.
Blevins is a good pickup for the Gnats. Wouldn't have minded seeing him in the Bravos pen.
Mariners trade for LoMo.
It looks like the Phils can't give away Pap and his $13M salary. Every day it appears CK will be worth less and less on the trade market once he starts getting paid $10M+.

Mets have agreed to terms with Bartolo Colon. Hearing its 2-year deal, pending physical.

Chopping With The Braves And Rolling With The Tide
Rosenthal says it's 2 yrs, 20 million.
Prospect that the A's got for Blevins is Billy Burns, a Georgia kid who the Braves drafted out of high school in 2008. Burns opted to go to Mercer College (same school attended by none other than John Rocker) and was a 32nd round pick of the Nationals in 2011. He had an awesome 2013, with OBPs > .400 at both his stops (one in High A and one in AA). Stole 77 bases total and was only caught 7 times.

Choo has a 7-year offer from the Rangers, less than what Ellsbury got.
Choo wants 8 years though.
And I want Frank Shirley, my boss, right here tonight. I want him brought from his happy holiday slumber over there on Melody Lane with all the other rich people and I want him brought right here, with a big ribbon on his head, and I want to look him straight in the eye and I want to tell him what a cheap, lying, no-good, rotten, four-flushing, low-life, snake-licking, dirt-eating, inbred, overstuffed, ignorant, blood-sucking, dog-kissing, brainless, dickless, hopeless, heartless, fat-ass, bug-eyed, stiff-legged, spotty-lipped, worm-headed sack of monkey **** he is! Hallelujah! Holy ****! Where's the Tylenol?
But it ain't gonna happen...right?

BoneThrower (12-11-2013), Hawk (12-11-2013), Heyward (12-11-2013), NYCBrave (12-11-2013)
So it's gotten to where Sin Shoo Choo is getting a possible 7-8-year deal now.
The lulz.

Yankees reject Phillips for Gardner trade!
The Yankees reject a deal for a power hitter? Impossible!!!!
Free Agent deals are insane, they are almost always overpays. Look at our recent (BJ) history. Makes more sense to me to spend your money on your young talent and buy a few guys on cheap one year deals who have had bad years and hope a few bounce back to prior performance, at least for a while.
