Wonder if Teheran and Bethancourt are next?

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?

I have a feeling the Marlins will botch this one if its the dodgers. Dodgers are known to not want to include Seagars or Urias.. At the moment, they seem to be down on Puig. Miami could view Puig as the exact type of guy that fits the Miami style and protection behind Stanton. Puig and B level...

Henderson Alvarez was non-tendered.. i know he has some shoulder issues, but if he recovers, could be a nice addition when healthy.

I understand the thinking behind this..BUT... i would think we could get more than Baez and Soler for those 2, no?

I would think you still start discussions with Urias and go from there. Puig would make sense for both teams. Seagers is a pipe dream. I hear they have a guy named Peraza who is pretty good.... No reason Miller shouldnt get a top 50 prospect plus a couple other intriguing pieces if not someone...

Let me make this clear, i DONT want to deal Freeman off, but if the Astros, Bosox, or Pirates called with the perfect package, you have to consider it. All three teams have bats and pitching we'd want in a combination. I'm just not confident that the current FO would get a package back we'd all...

why on earth would you trade simmons for this package? the ONLY reason you deal simmons is if you get someone to overpay, otherwise there is absolutely no reason for this. How many damn pitching prospects do we need? i've been a braves fan for over 30yrs.. this is the most disappointed and...

This might be wishful thinking, BUT to me, if you are dealing with the dodgers, you cant accept anything less than Urias, Pederson and Guerrero.. Especially after they took our lunch money on the Olivera trade.. I know its a lot to give up on the dodgers end, but for the braves to trade the best...

Just read the Angels have checked in as well.. They dont seem like a good trade partner. What could they possibly offer us that'd help us now, other than trout which isnt happening?

My only worry is that we save all this money by trading away these guys and Liberty doesn't do anything with it. My confidence in Liberty actually letting us spend is at 0. I'm sure they are thrilled with all the savings as of late...

Problem is... if this trade does fall through.. Is Wood butt hurt enough to still want to be traded?

I understand the thinking behind this trade b/c we definitely need a potential bat to protect Freeman in the order.. BUT, we severely overpaid. I understand we are getting the marlins draft pick, but we should have gotten a prospect back better than Zach Bird. Plain and simple. For what we gave...

Speaking of which... Marcell Ozuna from the marlins apparently available. This is definitely a buy low guy i'd be interested in. Thoughts?

Speaking of Chris Johnson, is there a legitimate chance he actually gets traded? even if it is for a bag of baseballs and a rosin bag? havent heard much about him lately

I'm almost certain the Braves front office is not bold enough to go get someone like Puig or Carlos Gomez. Its certainly a pipe dream. I think at some point we will trade for a quality hitter, but its doubtful its Puig or someone with a big personality.

I definitely agree. Tulo might be fine at SS for the next 3-4 yrs, but i do think at some point he will need to slide over to 3B. He has his money, at that point, it should be about whats best for the team. But like you said, i dont see him doing it.

I've always been intrigued by Cargo, but as much as i hate the "well he plays in Coors and his numbers are ballooned b/c of that" argument, that might be true with Cargo. I dont know his exact numbers away from Coors, but given his injury history and contract, i dont know that i'd give up much...

Not to mention, Tulo has said many times he has no interest in moving to 3B, even if that is the norm for bigger SS's in their 30's. He's pretty set on staying at SS. Whether that is realistic or not is another story.. On another note, MLBTraderumors has mentioned the Rockies are also...

I definitely agree with you. Puig is no doubt a major headcase. But maybe with Fredi G. and Fredi Free, he could be slightly tamed enough to tolerate his attitude? Markakis LF, Maybin CF and Puig RF wouldnt be so bad, for the right price of course
