This actually is a blockbuster trade from a salary point of view. The players are all past their prime, but their salaries are very much 2017 salaries. So this trade will have a big impact on the futures of both teams, especially the Dodgers.

I'd say the Dodgers are the odds-on favorites


Maybe so but if I had to bet money right now I’d go with Cubs

I would definitely say Cubs, Dodgers and resigning with Washington are the three likeliest outcomes, in that order.

Because it's not always easy to line up organizations like the Dodgers and the braves were able to do

How do the three extra 40-man spots impact Atlanta? How many do they have left?


40 man is full now. But not a big deal since the trade was completed after the rule 5 draft. So young guys that had to be protected were already added to 40 man.

You have to figure braves will use bmac and Kaz hoping they produce anything. If they do produce they trade them... If not they get released.
