Well, guess what team has very few prospects left? You guessed it! Your own Braves! Salty is a good hitter, but how much do you pay for a good hitter?
We gave up one of the better prospects in baseball as well as a young, stud SS and 2 pitching "prospects". This trade really makes me hope we re-sign him so we don't lose him after only 1.5 (or 1.3, whatever) yrs of service.
I don't need to say how I feel about it, I've already expressed my thoughts. But I don't think it was a total loss since we also got some bullpen help from Texas as well as Octavio Dotel from the royals.
Man, if we keep doing business with the royals, we will be in great shape! They wanted Tony Pena jr and now they wanted Kyle Davies. I expected Dotel's price to be higher, especially considering I wouldn't have cared if Davies stayed in the minors and never pitched for the braves again, but I don't have to worry about that now.
There are rumors that we will address Starting Pitching, something that I thought we should have been doing before addressing 1B and RP. I'll probably stick very close to a computer tomorrow.
