Farewell to Wood, Peraza, Jimmy Johns, and Avilans.

Shanks says "more trades coming" fwiw

How did we include two dicks in this trade and still end up the ones getting ****ed?

 

[striker42]

If Olivera was 3 years younger it would make sense. But he's on the world side of 30 and has a bum elbow. He's every bit as big an injury risk as Wood with the added bonus of not having proven he's major league ready and being a risk for age related collapse like Uggla.

We traded equal risks at best except ours is proven to be a major leaguer.

@MarkBradleyAJC: Re: Alex Wood. #Braves love his tenacity but worry about his delivery. He has already had Tommy John. Another round and he's Beachy/Medlen.

So we drafted him in the 2nd round so that we could trade him and a top prospect for $30 million?

 

[emk418]

If they wanted him so bad they could have upped their offer in the offseason and kept Wood and Peraza.

Oh, good. Cause this one really made me excited to see what comes next.

 

[weso1]

The Braves are trading Wood because they're worried he might be a injury risk and we trade for all of these guys coming off TJ lol.

That's a great point, but you need to work on your a/an grammer... damn it... grammar.

 

[msstate7]

Is Olivera hurt?

 

[jsebe10]

Man. Just saw the video of Wilmer Flores on the field in tears while the they are getting stomped in the 8th. The Mets dropped the ball on this one.

 

[NinersSBChamps]

and if oliveira does nothing or wood turns into Kershaw younare left holding the bag.

Yes, but that bag is full of positivity.

 

[smootness]

How many guys have we acquired between this offseason and now who had TJ?

Off the top of my head: Jenkins, Fried, Banuelos.

If they've already had it, then they may have it again. So trade them now for whatever you can get.

 

[NinersSBChamps]

Is Olivera hurt?

Is it Wednesday.

 

[PurpleBrave]

You spin me right round baby right round.

Wood could blow out his arm, Jim Johnson could slip on a banana peel on his way out of the hotel tomorrow and break his ankle, and Peraza could get hit by a comet. Braves are playing it safe

 

[BRule]

Oh, good. Cause this one really made me excited to see what comes next.

Maybe we can trade Olivera to the Dodgers for Seager or Puig

Wood is nowhere close to injury risk that Oliveira is. Oliveira career is a big injury and that was pre-30

 

[The Tariff King]

Why even think about trading for Wheeler since he's coming off TJ?

 

[Braves1976]

They can spin this how they will, but don't piss down back and try to tell me it's raining.

 

[emk418]

I'm not arguing that. Just feel this is not good value at all. Trade wood for olivera and that's it. Not all the other pieces.

 

[Hawk]

Maybe we are still getting Puig but Los Angeles has instituted a gag order until the deal is done for fear of pissing him off.

Trying my damndest here

Is Olivera hurt?

he was earlier in the year. and has been a lot the past two years.
