    Boom! Good to see my fellow MHS Blue Devil 2nd baseman - and grandson of my kindergarten teacher - back in the ATL! Rip'em up Dansby!

    I hate trading Miller but this was a really good deal I believe. Really like Dansby and surprised they threw him in as well. Looks like we are sending another minor leaguer back but all three guys we got are good to very good.

    I'm still in a wait and see mode with these moves...but we have given up the best defensive shortstop in the game and a proven young horse with game 7 type stuff. Hopefully it all works out.

    The Braves now have the 10th, 19th, 30th, 61st, 69th, and 88th best prospects in baseball per http://MLB.com

    Damn thats a trade rape.

    Braves potential 2018 infield: Riley, Swanson, Albies, FF.
    OF: Olivera, Mallex, Markakis/FA.

    Thats a competitive lineup. If a few of the pitching prospects develop, thats another Braves dynasty.

    Inciarte will almost certainly be the CF going forward, even over Mallex.

    Bethancourt will be moved since we got flowers. What other moves are we looking at?

    Maybe, but he has options so they may just keep him in AAA all year.

    We'll be looking to sign pitching bargains we can flip at the deadline, and a short term 3B or utility player.

    We'll see if he can produce offensively enough at the Ted. If he can't, he becomes the 4th OF.

    Damn, all of a sudden the entire lineup is set, without even going to FA or trading from pitching prospect depth. Future looks bright.

    According to Fox Sports, you're right. A shame, he could really build his value back in AAA. Well, Bobby used to carry 3 catchers....

    Rumblings that the Cubs have already asked about inciarte. We should ask for Baez, underwood, and soler. We could send back inciarte , cb, and Teheran.

    Don't wanna do that. I like inciarte. I like Teheran and think he'll have a great first half... Trade em at break if that's what we wanna do
