2006 Atlanta Braves Discussion

[TDO]

i always liked rocker....and i think JS get a little too much for the dynasty. bobby cox had a lot of input as well. he did start out as our gm and is a great manager no matter what he's given....

Ah Rocker...the poster boy for birth control.

Gotta love that moron, wish he'd just keep his big mouth shut.

Anymore talk about Rocco Baldelli?

Not much reported lately. I know O'Brien from the AJC said he still thinks there's a good chance of it happening, though the Rays still are trying to get Chuck James (and that ain't gonna happen).

I'm just not confident that we'll have Andruw at the end of the year, so I would like to see some more activity to get him.

Yeah, I think that's precisely why Schuerholz wants Baldelli so bad... and I'm guessing he'll get him, even if he has to overpay.

Last rumor was that they would do it for Escobar and Chuck James in an instant but we don't want to give James up. I think we're going to try and persuade them to take Davies and maybe another prospect.

I'd say there's a good chance of it still happening...JS usually doesn't miss out on trade targets.

I want Escobar to play 2nd this season.
