When the Braves asked about acquiring Yovani Gallardo in January, the Brewers asked for [Jace] Peterson in exchange.

Wait, what?

 

[RBH]

I stand with you, friend.

So you're going to join the Council due to your exile?

#Teamketchup stands firm in your support brotha.

RBH's 'ketchup' picture looks like there is mayo on the side too. #waffler

 

[CygnusXS]

Y'all need to leave RBH alone. All the pain killers he's on from his various burns, he can't possibly be thinking straight.

 

[Purple Cheeto]

That game is simply amazing.

In 2016 only 3 NL players OPSed over .900 and only 1 in the AL. Javier Baez did eclipse 40 dingers though.

 

[3N16MA]

Very disappointed in all this #teamketchup and #teammustard stuff. The winning team is when ketchup and mustard team up.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Hogan looked so sad when they were in the back practicing that and left him out on that behind the scenes thing.

 

[dork]

All praise the Soler. I'm hoping for a big year from him.

 

[Jackie Chiles]

Why must we be subjected to Mid West Baseball? I hate The Cardinals and the state of Missouri. I'd rather watch The Angels vs The Rangers or even The Astros.

It's been a long offseason, STL needs to remind us how the game is played.

Truth fact of the thread.

Is that why he's getting an MD? He's a regular Dr. House.

is there a reason that the Cuban players are choosing these non-traditional uniform numbers? Puig is 66, Soler is 68, Abreau is I think 78. You don't normally see those on position players. Always been curious about that, or if it even is a "Cuban" thing or just a coincidence.

Dunno, i stupidly bought a baez shirt before he came up. So i have a shirt with 90 on the back lol

 

[Macattk15]

You got this Mariners. Don't suck you sons of bitches!

Definitely leaving work early tomorrow to catch the first game.

[darkside31337]

Braves really shedding that salary

 

[eznark]

Anytime you can make room on your roster for Josh Outman you have to do it. Smart move Barves

 

[Malvingt2]

Ken Rosenthal ‏@Ken_Rosenthal 33s34 seconds ago
So, Kimbrel and B.J. to #Padres. Maybin, Quentin, Wisler, one other and 41st pick to #Braves.

Kiley McDaniel ‏@kileymcd 1m1 minute ago
Padres also send OF prospect Jordan Paroubeck to Atlanta as part of the deal

 

[BFIB]

Holy shit. Justin just can't get rid of his brother.

 

[Frozenprince]

Hoooooooooooly shit.

Thanks Atlanta! Going full tank in the single stupidest possible way.

 

[jbug617]

RBH start looking at this list. Braves going to spend some dough in 2017

[brianjones]

goddamn padres

 

[darkside31337]

Hoooooooooooly shit.

No need for a closer if youre only going to win 60 games for the next few years

 

[eznark]

Braves are going to look real dumb when Harper is suspended half a year for roids and the Nats go in the tank.

This is the Mets year!! 75 wins wins the division.

 

[Frozenprince]

Padres going all in for real.

I still doubt the Barves are worse than the Phils though.

 

[Kingbrave]

This is what going team ketchup does for the Braves!

At least we finally got rid of Melvin.

 

[BigJonsson]

The Uptons together again lol

 

[cashman]

AJ Preller is unhinged.

Ahaahahaha what?

 

[CygnusXS]

I don't know how to process this trade

 

[darkside31337]

Trade really sums up the entire offseason. No team was trying to tank harder than the Braves and nobody was trying to win more this year than Preller

 

[Malo]

Padres going all in for real.

I still doubt the Barves are worse than the Phils though.

But their infield is still shit.

 

[Malvingt2]

David O'Brien ‏@DOBrienAJC
#Braves get OF prospect Paroubeck, RH prospect Matt Wistler, 41st pick in draft, OFs Maybin, Quentin in deal for Kimbrel, Upton. WOW.

 

[Enron]

I am totally fine with this deal. I love Kimbrel, but his position is the easiest one to replace. I am ok with taking back 2 losers in Quentin and Maybin - at least Quentin can get on base. Matt Wisler as well? Yes please.

 

[Malvingt2]

Ken Rosenthal ‏@Ken_Rosenthal 20s21 seconds ago
Source: No money in deal. Both sides take existing contracts as they are.

 

[3N16MA]

Braves trying to see how low they can go.

When you don't want a player just dump him on the Padres.
