Braves trade for Joc Pederson

It’s pretty low risk either way. If the Braves are horrible the next few weeks, he could always be moved for a comparable prospect that we gave up. I doubt that happens either way. I think this is more about Ozuna insurance for next year (that just happens to help us this year).
 
Getting only joc doesn't really make much sense, so I expect another move soon

After reading a lot of KG's stuff at FG, he's explained these deals can take weeks to complete. It is possible this deal was all but done before Acuna got injured, and at that point it wasn't practical to stop the deal from completing as agreed upon.

Prob so, but I'm holding out hope marte and Duvall are on the way
 
Pederson needed to take a substantial cut from his Dodger deal to sign with the Cubs. As a result the Braves are only paying off the balance of a $4.5 million salary for this season, while the mutual option would pay Pederson $10 million.
