    Looks like we've finally hit the calendar date when teams can place players on the 60-day DL. The significance for the Braves would be that their 40-main was full going into today, and now they could put SRod on the 60-day DL in order to add someone on an MLB-deal (Angel Pagan, perhaps).

    I believe Lindgren will also be put on DL. Not sure about Winkler.

    Good call on Lindgren. The radio silence on Winkler has been bizarre. Hopefully we'll learn more about his situation today or tomorrow.

    Wow. The Reyes news sucks. Tough hit for the Cards. This is why Coppy is making the right moves.

    I could get on board with that. Still think the overall value of established star's is similar though.

    Which in turn makes them more valuable. A top 10 hitter is more valuable than a top 10 pitcher because of these injury risks.

    We need about 20 good pitchers a year. Only 3-4 outfielders, 1 1b, 1 2b, 1 SS, etc. We tried the big offense with ****ty pitching and we couldn't get past the first round.

    I've thought about Pagan as well...especially if Markakis is the defacto backup 1B
