re: The ATL Thread 4/11: Mets (Quintana) @ Braves (Winans)

Well that’s what AA gets paid the big bucks for. Better get creative and figure it out. Fried, Morton, Sale ain’t going to cut it.

Maybe there is someone with an expiring not expected to resign and they will take anything for.

The issue is that we don't really have anyone on the farm to trade unless you want to move AJSS and Waldrep, which I don't think AA will.

If he thinks either makes us better in the years to come while our window is open until the time when Ozzie, Acuna, Riley etc start needing extensions again, even if we would be worse this year by not utilizing them in a trade, theres no way he moves them.

And then next year we likely (almost certainly IMO) have to replace Fried. He is only making $15m this year... thats what guys like Michael Wacha and Jon Gray are making. Hope we invest at least a little more in the position than that.
