Fredi Gonzalez: The things that worries me is protecting Freeman,if we started today Gattis would be that guy but it's ever changing #Braves
Gonzalez: we were 29th in runs with Justin & Jason in the lineup so why not do something different, score runs in different ways #Braves

Not a bad signing. We need a cheap innings eater and if he's healthy he will be that guy. He's in winter ball right now and his stuff looks good from several reports. Which is why his failed physical is odd.

Braves are still talking to clubs about Gattis LINK

Braves are still talking to clubs about Gattis
With the start of Spring Training a little less than a month away, the Braves are still talking to a few clubs that had shown interest in Evan Gattis during the early portion of this offseason. But as of early Wednesday afternoon, it did not appear that a deal was imminent.
If Gattis is traded, his most likely destination would be to the American League, where he could be utilized as both a designated hitter and catcher. The Astros, Rangers and Royals have been among the clubs that have shown interest this winter.
While the Royals now appear to be out of the mix, the Astros and Rangers might still have some interest in the right-handed power hitter, who has already tallied a pair of 20-homer seasons, despite not playing more than 108 games during either of his first two seasons at the Major League level.
There was a point when the Braves were hoping to land a Major League-ready starting pitcher or outfielder in exchange for Gattis. But it appears their most recent discussions have provided reason to believe they would be more likely to gain a crop of prospects if they deal the 28-year-old slugger, who will not be eligible for free agency until after the 2018 season.
Gattis is currently slated transition from the catcher’s position to starting left fielder in Atlanta. While this would create the potential to compile approximately 150 additional plate appearances over the course of the season, it also creates some concern about his lack of experience as an outfielder.

Aside from that blurb, is there talk of what the return would be for Gattis? If we are going to trade Gattis, we REALLY need to move Kimbrel IMO. If we move Gattis we are taking away our only respectable protection from Freeman. Hell, imagine what is going on in Freeman's mind right now. He must feel like shite.

He's saying it's a rumor. It's not like its done.
And yeah I agree no point having Kimbrel on a sub .500 team

The #Astros have brought #Braves catcher Evan Gattis into Houston for a physical today. They are one of 3 teams aggressively pursuing him.

You do wonder if Dexter Fowler might be a fit for the Braves in an Evan Gattis deal. Better OF fit.

Sources: #Braves’ Gattis in Houston for physical with #Astros, as @BNightengale first reported. Braves say still talking with other clubs...
Rival exec says trade agreement must be in place and commissioner’s office must be notified BEFORE team consents to player having physical.
#Braves say they’re keeping their options open. We’ll see.
