I think the back end of that deal is so far away it effectively doesn't matter. I wouldn't have a problem with it, but I can't imagine they would choose to do it.

Didn't Ted Turner negotiate it with himself?

How often did Snit DH D'Arnaud? I'm not sure, I lost the Braves broadcast into the season over the ABC holdout.

Not sure a backup catcher is the best use of that capital.

The GM bad mouthed Montgomery so hard it's hard to imagine that you'd need to give anything of value. Maybe they would pay you. The As got no return at all for Murphy.

I don't quite understand why the Angels assigned surplus value to Soler.

Thanks for the explanations. I learned something.

Could you explain why it would be a significant tax hit? I think it might be a year of results too soon but wouldn't think tax hit would be much.

Andruw never learned to lay off that pitch.

Buying low on Montgomery is not the worst idea though I think having the DBacks pay most of his salary is preferable.

I didn't listen when I was 24 and I wasn't a world class athlete with immediate success at professional level.

I'm not sure "swing hard at pitches in the zone" is a secret sauce that the Braves coaches haven't figured out. Most of the Braves home developed players have exceeded their prospect evaluations and what more realistic minded posters projected for them. When you draft for pitching as...

Ahem, Jordan Montgomery is not from Georgia.

I mean Charlie Morton makes 20m a year and you could reasonably project Fried to have a couple more All Star-ish seasons before settling into a Morton like role. Being left handed sort of gives an illusion of longevity that isn't perhaps reality, but feel like if he would actually sign for...

Sorry it's required we resign Heyward and Freeman first. It's only fair.

Nothing about what the Braves or Anthopolous have done would suggest anything else. They will either sign a veteran to short term deal or trade for a cheaper guy. Possibly both.

Feels like someone could get him for 8-10m for his final season. Maybe less.

If you have to keep Solar do you shop for a cheap all defense glove as late inning replacement or make do with what you got?

Although to be fair, you made a different statement than what the person you responded to said. He said the Braves drafting is a lot better than it's been given credit for. You made a comment about the system. But I suspect the best way to evaluate a system remains the output of actual...

This is seems wrong by any objective standard but you are entitled to the opinion.
