I want a Upton trade to the Padres for Tyson Ross. A rotation of Teheran/Ross/Miller/Wood/Minor could be beastly, and the oldest pitcher would be 27.

Trade Gattis for a descent hitting prospect, and sign a couple of outfielders to one year deals(Ludwick/Hairston/Schierholz). Draft DJ Stewart with our top pick, and hope that is is ready for Atlanta in 2017.

Cubs $138, Red Sox $130

Braves offer is apparently backloaded with the big money coming 2017 and later and they are hoping for the hometown discount.

Heck yeah. He hasn't lived up to expectations, but he does a lot of things well. I'd be fine with him in right.

I wouldn't go more than 4/32. If he would sign that, slot him in the 2 hole and call it a day.

He won't be signing for $8/year. MLBTR predicts 4/48

I'd prefer to shell out a little extra and make a run at Melky for that price. I don't know if I could stomach 12 million a year for Markakis.

If Rios would take a 1 year incentive based deal with a solid starting salary(5 mil-ish), I think he would make an interesting signing too.

Have you forgotten already? He was awful in ATL, and then proceeded to taunt Braves players and fans when he returned. No way he comes back.

I completely forgot about that taunting stuff. You're right... no way he comes back. That said, if he wasn't such a dick bag, he would make sense here.
