They have officially bowed out by trading Mark Tiexera away.
Anyone who thinks this was a stupid move, is an idiot...
From what I've read online, 96% of Braves fans are idiots. Considering what the Braves gave up to get Tex and what they are getting in return, not a good investment. A decent 1B and a 25 year old AA pitcher.
Jarrod Saltalamacchia, Elvis Andrus, Neftali Feliz, and Matt Harrison for Casey Kotchman and Steve Marek
End result of the Tex rental
Braves did what they felt they had to do, and Kotchman should be a very solid player for years to come. I don't fault the Braves in this situation, as Texeira's potential asking price next year cost them some leverage in making a deal. They won't have to worry about what picks they'll get as compensation, and paying them 1st round dollars, opting for more MLB-ready instead.
I take it that you don't watch the Angels much... :salut:that about sums it up. Could have at least got 1 solid prospect instead of 2 blah players.
Anything that effs the Braves is A OK to me :salut:
The Braves suck![]()
Too bad that you fail to see that this HELPS the Braves. :dance:Anything that effs the Braves is A OK to me :salut:
