By far the best trade in the last year or so.. Our farm is crazy good now.. I know Swanson was a college player, how close is he to being MLB ready?

We won't know until he plays this year. I imagine he'll start in A or A+ with the goal to move him pretty quickly. I would look to 2016 for him to have a chance to break camp in the bigs.

Damn. When I heard we didn't get Polluck, I was disappointed; now I'm not. That is a haul and a half...

Too bad we don't have Simmons still or I'd actually be excited for 2017.

We essentially swapped Simmons for Swanson, and added Newcomb who could be a 1-2.
 
What are the chances of Swanson playing 3B? I know he's a SS but maybe with Albies they intend Swanson to move to 3B?
 
Very interesting trade. I wonder is Swanson stays at SS with Albies there too.

I wonder if the Braves are listening at all on Freeman. I'm assuming they are shopping Markakis given the glut of outfielders now.

I think it's more likely we see them teaming up at SS/2B in some way. No idea which guy plays which position tho.
