Can't link because I am on my phone, but being reported by Buster Olney. I think the Braves are giving up on Francisco too soon, he's got enormous power. What say everyone else?

Apparently you can't read, either.

Keeling, 25, has appeared in 105 minor league games (all in relief) over parts of four seasons with the Milwaukee Brewers. Originally drafted by the Brewers in the 18th round of the 2010 June free agent draft out of Oklahoma State University, Keeling has appeared as high as Double-A Huntsville in the Brewers organization. Over 17 relief appearances this season with Huntsville, he has fanned 19 batters over 17.0 innings pitched. In 2011 with Class-A Wisconsin, the Texas native held Midwest League opponents to a .194 batting average, including .042 (1-for-24) against left-handed batters.

Moves such as these in the past have always worked out for the Braves. Their scouting dept (as far as pitching) has been spot on. Occasionally some of the moves haven't been great #RayKing but for the most part I've been very happy.

The fricking Brewers are hilarious...they had Betancourt playing 1B for them. Douches.

See more Peña at 3B? Platoon with CJ.

Pena needs to be playing second base.

After getting Francisco, the Brewers dropped former Brave Alex Gonzalez
Posted on 6/3/13 at 11:45 am to td01241
I can agree with that. But I was speaking more on what I think will happen.

I still don't get this - you now have 3 backup outfielders (with Gattis playing some LF) and Pena to backup 3 infield positions. Couldn't we have got an equal return for Reed Johnson? I don't see how you give up on a 25 year old lefty power hitter like Francisco.

Reed Johnson is a valuable part of this team from a leadership prospective. We have plenty of hitters like Juan that have power and strike out three times a game. He was out of options, so when we sent him down to make room for a needed seventh reliever, it was either trade him or lose him for nothing

This guy gets it.

Maybe Keeling is someone the Braves have been eyeing and Trading Reed Johnson wouldnt have got the deal done
