    And I think he rushed back. Still rusty...but probably the best place for him to go is back to the pirates

    Derek Lee was mid august I believe in 2010. I think it went down right after we lost Chipper.

    I like this bit of business by Coppy. SRod easily replaceable for us. Lots of options as utility guys already in the system. Gets his money off the books for next year. Bowman just tweeted that we save about $7.5 mil from this move.

    Chances are high that Joe becomes nothing. But was solid in 2016, has great k/BB ratio this year, decent obp; I wouldn't write him off completely just yet.

    Nothing to dislike about this deal.

    Good move by the Braves. Paying a 33 year old utility player with a bum shoulder 5.7 million next year would be a bad move. I'm surprise the Pirates took his whole salary back.

    I actually saw Connor Joe back in May. Wasn't paying the best attention as I'd consumed two 32 oz beers in the first inning (it was 7-5 after 1, so it took a while, lol), but I remember being impressed with him. Ripped a double in the game.

    Has there EVER been a statement and question a certain someone should absolutely never have made and asked publicly more than...

    Kinda pathetic to see yourself as a message board knight in shining armor. How impotent does someone have to be in real life to resort to playing hero on a message board?

    This trade was fated the moment Phillips agreed to play third. The play he made last night further secured that scenario. Now, the Braves have to look inward very hard and decided what they do in Camargo vs. Swanson. Camargo's sample size is growing rapidly.

    You're going to have to leave Swanson in AAA at the start of next season. The kid is lost. He just needs a pressure free enviornment to take a breath and he will be back to a very good player for us in the future.

    I agree that he's going to fall to earth, but he's cooled off and still outhitting Swanson's AAA line.

    After 9 innings, somebody else was ripped too!
