An emotional Juan Uribe said he was told to expect the trade to be official tonight or tomorrow morning.

"We're actually going to try to flip Uribe to the White Sox for a couple pieces, but if they try to bargain down we're just going to cut him."

Fredi confirmed that the trade will not be official until MLB reviews it in the morning.

Fredi said he couldn't comment on any players involved in possible trade. Still awaiting MLB approval. #Braves

Hah!

BTW Juan Uribe and Chris Winthrow anagrams out to

Wow a Butch Irish Injurer or A Whorish Jew Rubric Unit

Not sure about their names and why they hate Irish and Jews so much. Damn.

 

[cajunrevenge]

Braves aquire pitcher recovering from TJ surgery? That's unpossible.

Callaspo, Ian Thomas, Stults and Juan Jaime are believed to be the four-player package the Dodgers will receive from the #Braves

#Braves expected to get Chris Withrow, 26, who had a 2.73 ERA in 46 appearances past two seasons, with 71 K and 31 BB in 56 IP.

I don't know if we are getting anything in return, but...

- (-) = +

Hard to find fault with this one. If only they took Cahill too...

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

So to recap this proposed deal:

Dodgers acquire:
Alberto Callaspo
Ian Thomas
Eric Stults
Juan Jaime

Braves Acquire:
Juan Uribe
Chris Withrow

Hell, we would have been glad to throw him in for free.

 

[Garmel]

So to recap this proposed deal:

Dodgers acquire:
Alberto Callaspo
Ian Thomas
Eric Stults
Juan Jaime

Braves Acquire:
Juan Uribe
Chris Withrow

We got the better of the deal. By far.

Dodgers acquire:
Alberto Callaspo
Ian Thomas
Eric Stults
Juan Jaime

Braves Acquire:
Juan Uribe
Chris Withrow

God, we went through a hell of a lot of drama and speculation to end up with that.

Which is a deal I like, mind you, even if I'll go to my grave worrying about Jaime pulling his **** together and coming up with one great season out of the pen.

 

[bravesnumberone]

That's a beautiful trade.
