Top offseason priority?

my offseason priority would be to start saving money to pay manny machado whatever he wants when hes a fa. I want him in third.

Freeman 1B
Albies 2B
Darby SS
Machado 3B.
 
Agreed. I think it's a forgone conclusion the Braves acquire a veteran #3/4 to stabilize the rotation behind Teheran.

Yeah, and hopefully someone we can flip at the deadline to make room for whichever of Sims or Newcomb proves ready by that point.
 
It would be hilarious if we traded 3 years of Shelby Miller and traded back for 3 years of Shelby Miller. I kind of wonder if the DBacks were trading him to the Marlins just as an FU to the Braves. Miller probably regains form at some point with the Marlins.

Nothing that the D-Backs could do at this point would say FU to the Braves after the fallout from the original deal. The PR could not already be worse, which is why the idea of sending him back to the Braves wasn't so ridiculous. At this point, they need to recover something.

I'd love that, but those close to the team have said there's no way he makes it to market. They'll let Adam Jones walk, but they're not losing Machado.
