re: The ATL Thread: Offseason Edition

You can scratch KC off the JJ list with their acquisition of Sanchez

You can also X out any notion of getting Lorenzo Cain. This move opens him up to play CF next year for the Royals.

Exactly why 31 said KC was off the list. KC is still going to look for starting pitching, preferably a top of the rotation guy, but without Cain, no deal with the Braves is going to get down.

Don't be making sense and stuff.

It's what I do. People seem to hate me for it

Prado and JJ for Braun.

Get it done Wren.

I'd really like for us to sign Jimmy Rollins.

Sure, he's not what he was, but he's a veteran, still plays good SS, and his bat (even now) is significantly better than AGon.

Plus, it'd hurt the Phils, as they'd have to scramble for a SS replacement.

Would probably cost a little more, but he's old enough he could be the stopgap until Pastornicky as well.

I think we could sign him for 2-3 years.

It would take 5 years to snatch him away from the Phils, as he will probably get 3 with a player or vesting option for a 4th with them, and we aren't going to pay more than they can.

I can't see us giving anyone more than a 1 year deal or maybe 1 year with an option.

I think 4 years around 40 with a 5th year player or vesting option for probably 6 or 7
