Doubtful Prado is traded. As you said, he's going to be at 3B here the next few years and you just don't know what you're going to get from guys like Edward Salcedo quite yet.

Problem with trading JJ is his value is pretty damn low right now coming off of the injury. Looking back, it would have been smart to trade him at the deadline but you couldn't really do that while we were in the thick of things.

And no way I want Alcides Escobar in a Braves uni

Please god no. Why?

I wouldn't be against moving Prado. He'll probably want a lot more money than he's worth, though he's been good to us thus far, and his flexibility makes him an asset.

Those were the only two options we had, now we turn our attention to the FA market.

Free Agency is going to be boring for this team.

We'll re-sign Alex to a one year deal. Maybe sign one OF and one IF but who even knows about that

You have Prado, Bourn, Heyward, Diaz, Hinske all guaranteed to be on the big league roster. Constanza probably as well.

Any moves we make this offseason will be through a trade. Our roster is probably going to look a hell of a lot like it did this year.

i'm ok with that. We did well, but injuries hurt us down the stretch in the final month. I don't see us making moves in Free Agency if at all. Maybe some bullpen depth so we aren't killing O'Ventbrel (O'Flaherty, Venters, Kimbrel)
