In terms of 2017, if the Braves decide that Ozzie is ready for the call up, what do we do if Phillips is having a solid year and the team is winning? Do you still try and trade him (remember he has a no-trade clause and I think it limits the teams that he can be traded to)? Do you move Phillips or Ozzie to 3B short term for this season only?

I would imagine that platooning them wouldn't be an option. I feel that if the Braves think Ozzie is ready then they would want him to play everyday.


We arent winning anything this year. We're not going to rush Ozzie.

Phillips can be traded, we will just owe him a bonus for trading him. That was worked out before we traded for him.

If Ozzie is ready, I don't think the Braves allow Phillips to be in the way. He would either be traded or DFA'd. We only owe him I think $500,000 in either scenario in addition to the $1 million we are paying him.

I think the Braves win 80 games.
