    I know people claim Phillips is a poor defender now, but it would be fun to see him and Simmons play the middle of the infield together. If the Braves would have gotten Phillips five years ago we would have been in for amazing defense from two elite defenders.

    If Jup opts out do we go after him again? Already have twice.

    I'll just be glad we can play Camargo, Dansby, and Albies everyday.

    I get the no trade clause. I get wanting to play for the braces.

    But this is 500 k to play a month or two. It's not like he has to move his family

    We do our best work with catchers over 30, so he's almost ready

    Phillips was a great pick up.
    Saving service time on Ozzie was worth it

    But clearing the innings for young guys is more important than the return.

    Sanchez was the 4th overall pick of the draft ... back in 2009.

    BP deserves to play for a team in contention. Good for him.

    DOB tweeted that Coppy says we will strongly reconsider trying to re-sign Phillips. I really hope he is just being nice

    The FO does seem to have given a high priority on generating savings in various trades. The Garcia trade. I think the Cards picked up a chunk of Adams' contract. Just seems that finances ended up being a bit tighter than expected.
