Loved him. Time to hang it up.

I'm torn. We clearly need the bat, but he is a liability everywhere else in a ballpark.

Would we be happy with Teheran for Kyle Schwarber trade?

He wasn't.

Look, plain and simple, Julio had got to go. You don't give him away by any means, but there is no reason to have him on this team. Same goes for Viz. Julio would be the best or one of the top 2 pitchers available, plenty of teams would be calling and that drives the price up. Viz will be...

Bergman makes a lot of sense for us, but it doesn't make sense for the Astros. There are a lot of guys that make sense for us though. It would be kinda cool to build around the 1st and 2nd picks in the 2015 draft especially since we didn't draft either.

I believe that you don't have to trade Julio. Keeping him is not a bad option at all, But i do think this is probably a time that you can get someone to overpay for him. But we have to trade Viz. He is a TJS, Steriod using, RP who is in the middle of a career year. Sell high while you can.

Moncada, Swanson and Ozzie would be somewhat overkill. It should be: Julio and Viz for Devers, Benintendi, Swihart and Travis. That fills a lot of long term holes for us, while getting high end, close to MLB talent.

I would assume they want him to be the veteran leader to help shape the club. The coaching staff should be able to do that....but sometimes the veteran helps. I would absolutely listen if I was in charge, but they want Nick to share the leadership role with Freeman.

I think Mallex is going to be a solid 4th OF. I do not see him as an everyday guy. I see no reason to trade Inciarte....he is exactly the type of player we need to be acquiring, not dealing away. That being said....if some team wants to be stupid and give us a major overpay for him...as with...

How is tonight Tuesday?

.274 .357 .439

This Julio not being enough to get Benintendi talk is utter nonsense. The kid has 239 professional plate appearances. ....At Low A and A ball. But he is more valuable that a number 2 SP locked into a very team friendly long term deal????? Man...

Ender has a lot of value, that value is no where near Sonny. As much as I think he is the exact type of player the Braves should be looking to acquire during a rebuild (young, proven at the MLB level, under team control for 5 years, average/above average MLB player), I think he ends up being...
