    They didn't take less from the Brewers. Binson has not panned out at all but he was a top ranked prospect for a reason.

    I'm already preparing myself to be underwhelmed but I thank the Braves for getting me to football season with some entertaining baseball!

    That’s why I’m taking everything said in rumors with a grain of salt. We have less than 2 days till we find out what’s gonna really happen.

    It's tough on the fans part to figure out who he is going for, but once a deal happens, we'll know. Until then, just sit back and wait.

    Let’s look for a catcher that isn’t having defensive lapses. Flowers has been terrible lately.

    Interesting to me to hear passan on the espn broadcast say the prices now are crazy.

    I don’t think teams are going to give up to 50 guys unless it’s for 3 plus years of control for a stud.

    You are going to have to scout the 40 and 45 really well to get a good return.

    I’m still on the Starling Marte train. He has 2 teams options for 20 & 21 at 11.5 and 12.5 million. I really doubt he resigns with Pittsburg at the end of those 2 years and they aren’t winning that division anytime soon so they may be willing.

    The only shame in that is that it'll always suck to wonder "what might have been"?

    Of course that's not really a big deal - can't remember anyone ever *itching about Gonzalez not using Kimbrel in 2013. Certainly no one here.
    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?

    Where do I sign. It’s actually a pretty realistic trade though.

    I doubt they’d take it but if they did it’d leave our farm still in excellent our our MLB team would be loaded.

    I called Binson a likely bust before the trade. High ranked yea but not likely to pan out.
