Good lord, terrible title
I ended it with a ?, but ok, i'll change it
Terrible thread title or not, the braves should be trying to make this happen.
No. They're not about to hand us more prospects to beat them with in the future.
You simply have to win trades like that, and I can't see trading Viz to them for less than Giolito or Robles and Anderson Franco - and they'd have to be nuts to pay that price.
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?

They can have any three relievers for Robles.

One big issue with the Nats is that there's a pretty monumental gap between their top prospects and the rest. We aren't getting Turner, Giolito, Fedde or Robles for Viz, and after those 4, I'm struggling to find a prospect I'd want in return.
I also wonder if the Nats are really going to be that desperate for a closer. Kelley has been pretty outstanding this year, and it's not like Papelbon blew out his arm.

Only way I trade anyone to the Nats is if Giolito comes our way. So not happening.

On this thread haha
Get off my lawn!
Yeah, this most likely doesn't happen, but anyone care to remind me where the nats got papelbon from?
a team doensn't call another team about their own players.. if we call a team about Vizcaino (and as a matter of fact Teheran or anybody else), their value falls... a lot.
The Nats got Papelbon because they could get him for virtually nothing and restructure his contract to fit in a more team friendly type deal. Rizzo really isn't the type of GM to panic and there is no way you are getting any of the top 5 for Vizcaino. Then you have guys like Difo, Stevenson, Cole that I don't think they would want to part with for a reliever.
I think they go in house with mostly Kelly, but a little bit of Treinen and Perez. I also think they may view Koda Glover (AA-college closer) as the future closer who could be ready this year if really needed. Heck, they would prolly just go cheap and get Clippard back.

They traded next to nothing for Paps, bad example.
Yeah, I know. This thread sucked. I didn't really put too much thought into it. I just saw a closer go to the dl on a contending team and we have a closer that could potentionally be available. Seems this whole board could use a dose of Xanax... Way too uptight here lately. Anyway, I'll put more thought in before I hit the Post New Thread button haha
Eh. They can't all be dingers. Keep swinging the bat.
Rondon blows back-to-back saves vs nats... Viz back to Cubs? Still swinging haha
I completely expect to hear that the Cubs have traded for Andrew Miller every time I check MLBTR personally.

I listened to Yankees' game last night on at bat app and their announcers mentioned the Cubs could be coming after Miller when Miller entered game
