I would hate to rent beltran for a year and give up a prospect that will come back and bite us in the arse in years to come.

It ain't happening, no worries

0% chance we trade for Beltran.

If the Braves acquired Beltran, there is absolutely no guarantee he would only play center field. The Braves are happy with Jordan Schafer’s range in center and believe he is making the right progress as a leadoff hitter.

Instead Beltran could spend much of his time in right field where Jason Heyward has struggled this season. Heyward has hit .224 this year and just .173 against left-handed pitchers. His struggles against left-handers have led some to wonder if he should be utilized in a platoon or quite possibly sent to the Minors to fix his swing.

In other trade-related news involving the Braves, there was at least one Tigers scout in attendance to watch Derek Lowe’s start against the Rockies last night.

Yeah, I think there's a definite possibility we're going after Beltran....


Unfortunately, they seem to believe Schafer is fine in CF.

I think what will end up happening is we acquire a RH reliever and some average bench bat type... or maybe a guy like Pence or something, if they are serious about sending JHey down.

Ha, that's just laughable.

The Yanks would be fricking retarded to do that.
