I think if it was truly a choice between Lee and Wallace, Lee would be gone. Unfortunately Wallace can go, but we have nowhere to put Lee. He...
Paredes has a unique skill set for a third baseman. Lot of speed and raw power. Needs to work on his plate discipline.
Wow, Paredes and Bogusevic called up? Wallace and Johnson sent down? Or is Richard Justice playing some kinda sick joke...
Nash definitely needs to stay healthy. His numbers are not too far different from Singleton. I realize that Nash is a year older and a level...
Hallock and Telvin Nash are going to be top 20 for sure.
Clemens is still on the Braves list that I see.
You can't judge the trade based on how these guys are ranked in the Braves system. Rank within a system is all relative. If these 4 guys were in...
And Schaefer has not had a season as a full-time player yet. This season is the closest thing to it, and he has a .623 OPS which trumps Bourn's...
The problem with saying that other organizations are also adding draft picks and IFA signings, while true, is that they are also graduating...
That was Bourn's third year in the majors, not his rookie year.
As a 25 year old in Houston, Bourn hit .229 with a .588 OPS. He would have had to have been considered a fizzled prospect at that point. There...
Huge revisionist history on the Bourn trade. Lidge was damaged goods. Bourn was not some super-mega prospect that we held out for. He, in fact,...
The Braves 10-15 prospects are similar to our 3-8 prospects. The Braves not giving up their big 4 pitchers is ok, because we got multiple guys...
Wallace wasn't even part of the deal with the Phillies anyway. It was Gose, and he is a top 100 prospect in Double A now for the Blue Jays....
Such a fallacy that we somehow mortgaged our future for guys like Jennings and Tejada. We have simply drafted poorly and then didn't sign a lot...
Not sure what you guys were expecting from Pence. This isn't a Ken Griffey Jr in his prime here. We got two of the top 50 prospects in all of...
When Roy Oswalt was 21, he was in Low A ball, which is a level behind where Cosart is now, and pitched 150+ innings with a 4.46 ERA. Sometimes it...
When Chris Johnson was 21, like Altuve is now, he was in short season ball hitting .212.
Right, because those home runs have gotten us right back into contention. We could have Babe Ruth in the middle of this lineup and we aren't...
Look back at the Carlos Beltran deal the Astros pulled of to see what you can expect or Pence. Pence is having a better season than Beltran was...
