Official 2017 Trade Deadilne Thread

Glad we stood pat there. His timeline and ours don't exactly mesh.

I'd rather let our guys develop before trying to accelerate anything here.

This was a boring deadline. 128 pages of nothing lol! But hey I'd rather keep guys than just give them away.

Woah, last minute Darvish trade to Dodgers. Plus they added two decent bullpen arms. They are just scary now.

This was a particularly boring trade deadline. Not just for the Braves but baseball wide.

Wow. Those fellas were busy.

[Heyward]

My initial thought is that is way too much from the Yanks.

Cashman needs to be fired.

They held onto Florial, Frazier, Sheffield, Adams, and Torres.

Mateo is blocked by Didi, Torres and Castro. Yankees are stocked with outfielders and are rumored for Harper. Kap is good but they have Adams/Sheffield. Cashman fleeced Beane.

[zbhargrove]

I suspect we could have quite a bit of waiver action with our vets still

[Heyward]

Buehler or Verdugo were the rumored prospects ++ that Texas wanted.

Wonder if LA got him without one of them.

[Heyward]

Verdugo not in the deal per Morosi.

[Heyward]

Calhoun to Texas, 2 more names left.

[Heyward]

Calhoun, Brendon Davis, and AJ Alexy to Texas, seems like a win for LA here.

Alexy and Davis. That's not a whole lot to give up, but Calhoun hurts and Alexy does have potential, still really young. Pretty fair deal.

Gotta be better than that imo

Nice return for Texas for FA to be Darvish. Calhoun is a really good prospect without a true defensive home. Good get for an AL team.

Eh, they have Forsythe, Kike, Taylor, and the ageless Utley for 2nd. And can always sign someone if need be.

Take that back...wow that's a win for LA for sure

[SidSlid92]

Disappointing deadline for the Braves. I'm sure Coppy was working the phones; hate nothing came together. Guess there just wasn't a market for Phillips or Adams. Knew Julio wouldn't move (waited too late to move him). But was hoping to rid ourselves of Johnson and his salary obligations, and maybe get a lottery ticket back.

So we took a lesser prospect return for Garcia to save money ... and then do nothing with it?

I'm not talking about right now. Just saying that I like Calhoun a lot. No matter what, it is a big piece for a guy you'll lose after the year.
