If Riley is dealt or flops 3 base could be an issue for a long time. Is there any good FA coming around that the Braves could realistically afford.

JD getting 4 years wouldnt be surprising, just wouldnt want AA to be giving that out.
Travis Shaw is playing the market as well. Can Story play 3d? Can Swanson play 3d? Does Boston want to trim payroll enough to trade Boegaerts? Lots of possibilities, lots of time left.

Nats making progress on Strasburg, per Rosenthal. No surprise.
It’s partially dependent on Donaldson wanting to return to Cobb County slightly more than anywhere else, all other elements being close to equal, but I wonder if Anthopoulos could get “creative” and offer a 3/$81m contract that breaks down as such: $25m AAV over three years, fourth-year option at $25m, $6m buyout on fourth year. That’d amount to either a four-year deal or a $27m AAV deal, either of which seems near the top of Donaldson’s market.

Deal done, wonder how much he got.
7/220 for Stras, jesus christ.
