Some notes:
Chipper is taking live BP from the right side in Gwinett. He also ran with 90% effort yesterday and said it felt good.

Pastornicky got promoted to AAA.

What about Salcedo? Has he been moved to third permanently or do we expect him to transition back to SS?

Whitie's prediction: D-Lowe to Tigers for salary relief, Beltran to Braves for salary relief

ATL will pay for most of his salary? I saw where detroit wanted us to pay like 15 mil of his remaining 21 owed or something to that nature

I don't know if I like it, but it's what I think will happen.

I can't see the DLowe trade with Detroit happening. They want us to pay a good part of his contract which would defeat the purpose of doing it.

The Mets aren't looking for salary relief for Beltran. They want to eat up most of his contract just for the fact to get a top prospect in return. The Braves aren't going to do that, not for a guy that can't play CF anymore.

I don't see anyway we go for Beltran, or give up what it takes to get him.

I know he's really a corner now...I just read that the Braves are talking to the Mets about him. I haven't seen what they were asking for...I just assumed salary relief.

But if the Braves really wanted Beltran they have the best prospects to offer...though I wish we wouldn't use them on Carlos

Braves are talking with the Yankees about Granderson.


There you just read that.

They are willing to eat most of his remaining salary. They are looking for a top prospect in return.

That's all you need to know to know that we won't be trading for a guy that will push Heyward or Prado to the bench.

Braves and Mets may have talked, but it's probably not about Beltran, no matter what reports say.

If your twitter name ended in _ESPN I'd be slightly more inclined to believe it. Only slightly

Yeah if they're eating salary I don't see it. I could only see it as a Lowe for Beltran deal
