DOB: Braves offseason about to get a lot busier. - Gamel released.

Whether we like it or not, BJ isnt going anywhere.

Regards to 2B, if they dump Uggla, one of LaStella/Pena/Pastor would be 2B, would love Infante but i doubt that happens.

I agree on a SP but who?

I think the more time that passes and Ervin Santana doesn't find himself a new team is good. Hopefully his asking price will come down if he's not getting a lot of interest. I would like Santana if we could get him at a reasonable price.
 
We do not have a hole in CF. We just have a bad player. If you think the braves are going to do anything with him your mistaken.

At this point I don't know what to think about 2B. I think wren will bring in some type of vet to play.

We have a very large hole in the rotation. IMO.
 
I'm not going to say we couldn't use an ACE type pitcher but who is out of the rotation in that case?
 
Santana/Arroryo should not supplant one of existing pitchers. Burnett is way too much of a wildcard.

I would actually love Hughes as well but I have a feeling he ends up with the Mets.
 
I could see why you would think Beachy because of his injury concerns. I really liked what Wood showed last year. He is ready to be a full time member of the rotation. I don't see how the massive increase in salary justifies a minimal improvement in performance. I'd rather spend the money on the bullpen/bench/extensions.
 
I don't see anyway wood or bechy throws 200ip and a sub 3.30 ERA.

I good with 1 of beachy/wood being in the rotation but not both

I don't think Minor, Medlen, and Tehran are enough 1-3 to get the job done. They need help and wood/beachy isn't enough.

I think we are going to get 600+ Sub 3.5 FIP from those 3 next year. Plenty good for me.

I just think the Braves need to stay the course. The young core just needs to get more experienced. Their talent levels are excellent.

Busy I guess meant busy in players leaving ATL.

Its way early in FA and most figured Mac would leave, logically.

Huddy was a little surprising but no reason Wren should give him that much.

Not that we need to a whole lot anyway.

We could do nothing this offseason and still be in good shape.
 
I doubt we get into Arroyro, santana, or Hughes.

But I see no reason not to try to get Loshe.

If wren doesn't get a SP now he will be getting one come July when they cost way more.

Phil Hughes
Santana
Burnett
Arroyo

I would love Loshe or Hughes

Lohse depends on the prospects.

Arroyo/Santana (if you mean Ervin), no unless he lowers his price tag by a lot

Would like Hughes alot actually.

Burnett as well, but depends on cost.

I disagree on HUGE hole though, we need one starter and thats maybe being generous depending who the pitcher is.

They are plenty good enough.

This FA market is questionable, i agree with thethe that FW should try to sign some guys to extensions and work on the bench/bullpen.

Im not sure none of the P's we will likely target are huge upgrades over Wood/Beachy as the 4-5.
