2016 Trade Deadline Rumors and Moves

[zbhargrove]

Now knowing the price, I wouldn't be surprised if Coppy is on the phone with Stearns right now... whether you think its a good move or not. We can get Lucroy without gutting our greatest talent

Hopefully they'll take Francouer, Aybar, AJ, Adonis, and Wisler. Would be a great deal for them.

Who's to say Milwaukee wouldn't demand more from us considering our assets?

I am so glad you aren't the Braves' GM

Cool story... I'm really glad you aren't.

Then we don't have to trade for him

 

[bravesnumberone]

Point is we don't really know the price for him.

We have a pretty good idea considering we knew all the players in the deal with Cleveland... if they had a better deal, it would have been accepted.

Did the price tag just go down?

It also depends how Cleveland values the prospects. By all accounts, they seem to value Meija extremely highly.

I don't think so... never said so. Anyways... sounds like Heyman was saying the Dodgers could have been the mystery team?

 

[bravesnumberone]

Now Shanks is saying we shouldn't trade Teheran because the rotation is unstable. Lulz.

Lucroy nixed it. The deal was accepted by the club. I don't understand the love affair with him. If you want an aged offensive catcher, call the Yanks Mac's on the block.

Why would Lucroy decline to go to Cle, but accept Atlanta?

Bc we beat Cleveland for a WS title

Why would Lucroy decline to go to Cle, but accept Atlanta?

I don't think Atlanta was on his no-trade list.

 

[zbhargrove]

Why would Lucroy decline to go to Cle, but accept Atlanta?

First of all, he's from Florida and Atl isn't one his 8 teams... second, he would have accepted to Cleveland if they weren't dicks to him:

Maybe money. I think a lineup of Albies-Swanson-Freeman-Kemp-Lucroy will look very good.
