i would love sheets, less $$$ than burnett (who had injuries like sheets),and imo just as good if not better when healthy. thats key though, will sheets make it a full year? the trade for Javier Vazquez isnt that great imo. gave up the hottest prospect for an overpaid starter. flowers (the catcher in the deal) tore it up in fall/winter ball, huge power. he was blocked in the braves system, but coulda been used in a trade for peavy (who makes about what Javier Vazquez does).

The Braves are now going to try to get one of the guys from Japan. Kenshin Kawakami

The Philies have signed our very own Asian pitcher today...Chan Ho Park......fear us. :)

(we also just signed Jamie Moyer to another 2 years which means he will be pitching until he is 87 years of age)

i smell a trade. smoke screen by saying kelly and escobar arnt going anywhere. i hope its peavy and not greinke. if we give up escobar in a deal for greinke, im gona be pissed. i mean he is a ok pitcher, and has the stuff, but rather keep him and deal more prospects for a better pitcher (ie peavy).

rumor is 10 mill a year for furcal. good deal.

Well crap, now it looks like LA is trying to throw more money his way to try and keep him.

Braves.com is now saying the Braves are "close" to signing him. They say he might be moved to second, but I think Escobar has a much higher trade value and will be needed to get a good pitcher.

    • Very True--and I am a former HS English teacher.  
    • Not a Moore fan-but he had a few good games last year-but I want players that scare you--Renfrow's route running and intelligence, Legette's size, speed, and strength, AT's intelligence and route running, Coker's body control, strong hands, and abilty to win contested catches, and TMac's size, body control, and ability to find soft spots in zone coverages.  Horn gives them the ability to stretch the field and he plays special teams.   Moore has a nice smile and can dance.  He filled in well last season, but to get better as a team, you have to upgrade your players.  I think Moore is a bottom of the roster guy who got bumped when we drafted 2 WRs and signed a legit free agent.  Here is the thing--TMac makes us better because he is great against the zone--man?  Good luck with that.  AT's role can be reduced, and that is probably a good thing.  He can specialize in situational football. Coker?  Just getting started. XL?  Just getting started.  Drafting TMac was probably a bit of a wake up call, but XL will be better as the 2. Renfrow?  I see him splitting reps with AT--keeping both fresh and giving different looks. Horn?  Watch the safety cheat his side when he is in the game--I see a young Steve Smith type in him, but he has yet to play a game.  I hear that Morgan loves him.
    • Burns at 5-6 seems....a little aggressive.
