The Braves fleeced the Astros. They didn't have to give up one of the big 4 pitching prospects and got a very good lead off hitter that can wreck havoc on the base paths.Comment

and a lot more scoring opps for Bourn in Atlanta.After former Broncos quarterback Brian Griese sprained his ankle and said he was tripped on the stairs of his home by his golden retriever, Bella: “The dog stood up on his hind legs and gave him a push? You might want to get rid of that dog, or put him in the circus, one of the two.”Comment

We fans of big-market teams would like to know if Ed is gonna get another GM job after he's bounced from Houston. That would be nice.Originally posted by Kevin SeitzerComment

Hmmm...I find it tough to defend Ed Wade, but I don't think this deal is that bad. If I read Bourn's status right, he's in his last year of arb eligibility, so the 'Stros could have kept him for another year...when they'd probably still suck.
Abreu gives them what looks like a strong bullpen piece, Clemens and Oberholtzer have decent enough upside and I suspect one of them will turn into a respectable 3/4 SP, and Jordan Schafer...well, never mind.I'm just here for the baseball.

Now that is what I call positive thinking, however weak it may be.Originally posted by chancellor View PostComment

This deal sucksOriginally posted by chancellor View Post
They gave him up for depth. They could have done what the Rays did and move him in the off-season as Bourn > Upton. Instead, they gave him up now and got a very unimpressive package for him. Abreu is putting up nice AAA numbers, but he's much like his non-related brother, Winston Abreu. Winston dominated AAA and still can't sniff a major league job because he's AAAA material.Comment
