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

[The Tariff King]

We acquired Olivera to give a Cuban player to Fredi. Awww Hart.

 

[Dalyn]

Hart has essentially traded most of Freeman's BFF's on the team.

I wonder how happy Freddito is about this.

It's all in the name, such a romantic.

 

[Deester11]

I think that Olivera is a bonus. Add him to Toscano and you still have one Cuban player who might play for us.

 

[mqt]

Realistic (I think) hope at this point. Braves holding out for more after their specialists looked at Olivera medicals.

Bring on JDL and Yimi!

The Braves - Dodgers deal still might get done tonight. Now, that might mean in the middle of the night, but it still might get done.

I ask this as someone who is luke warm at best on this trade . . .

What kind of bat (and contract) do you think Alex Wood could have gotten if traded in the offseason?

I hope the Braves are smart enough to get a second opinion. Our "specialists" are special in all the wrong ways.

What did I just read? Did I just read?

6 years / $34.5m for Olivera.

If Alex Wood is a super two and stays healthy, I'd guesstimate 4 years / $30m. If he's not a super two and stays healthy, I'd guesstimate 4 years / $25m.

I think you're pretty low on your estimate of Wood's salaries moving forward. If he's not tied up for his arbitration years, I could see him at $40 MM for the timeline you've laid out provided his performance remains steady.

Too bad Fredi isn't black.

There is no way in hell yanks turn down Judge for Wood. Or really any team with a non top 5 type hitting prospect that is looking for pitching.

 

[bravesnumberone]

On the other hand, if Wood gets TJ in 2018, we might get him pretty cheap once he's a FA and it could still fit pretty well with Fart's philosophy.

 

[msstate7]

Maybe we can add Teheran and albies for justin turner.

2020. A Hart beating away from 2017.

 

[CyYoung31]

@Ken_Rosenthal: Alderson just told #Mets’ writers “there is no trade” for Gomez and that a deal “will not transpire.”

LoL

That gives me some hope...

 

[The Tariff King]

Makes me wonder if Wren was fired for not trading Venters, Medlen, and Beachy after their 1st TJ's.

From what I've heard in NY the Yankees have no interest in trading either Judge or Severino.

I doubt very much that the Yankees would trade Judge at all. They love him.

How are we not getting an outfielder ? They have like a dozen
