The Braves seem to always make horrible deals 
It's almost painful to be a fan sometimes (and I consider myself one)... They always pull the rug out from under you.

I know the deal we made was far from blockbuster, but as a trade itself I don't see how it's horrible at all...
We have a guy at catcher now who is fricking smashing the ball, and a future great catcher who is 23 yrs old, Caratini was likely never going to play for us in the big leagues, we upgraded out bench, and got a lefty reliever.
So if you want to be disappointed that we didn't make a splash fine, but the trade itself is fine

Trade deadline winners and losers: The Price of doing business
Winners
Atlanta Braves: They didn’t have much money to spend and didn’t want to give up a Jose Peraza or Lucas Sims, so Atlanta worked in the margins, like it does so well, fetching Emilio Bonifacio and James Russell from the Cubs. The Braves desperately have needed a lefty reliever, with rookie Chasen Shreve their only option there, and Bonifacio is the sort of super-utility/pinch runner every contender could use.
