Jim Johnson gone-5 million saved
Matt Adams will either be a DFA or traded-4-4.5 mil saved

AA is adding more and more money to his pocket. Might not use it and wait for the crazy 2018 class, but there will be a ton available.

Now we need some idiot to take either Kemp or Markakis and we will be on our way.

Adams, Santana, and Jace have been released.

No real shocks here. Going to be a whole new bench in 2018.

As far as I could tell we aren't signing any big time free agents this offseason and going to go all in for the 2019 season correct? And use the young guys to bridge this year?

Is that official? I thought they weren't releasing until this Thursday. Had my money on the Buttons.

Sweet Teas is about as moronic as the Marlins. Why not just say the Gwinnett Sweet Tea? Or Gwinnett Tea Bags?

AA doesnt know how to stand pat. We might not sign anyone, but I would bet on a couple of deals from him. 3B, bench, starting pitcher, and relief pitcher are places he will definitely look to upgrade.

I think they are just teasing each choice. Yesterday were "clues" about the Sweat Teas. Today it is "clues" about one of the other choices.

Wait...so we GIVE them international money in the Johnson trade only for them to turn around and use it to take Maitan?

I was stupid enough to think that maybe Maitan felt some loyalty for the Braves and would wait it out until May. Foolish on my part.

They also used our money to sign Livan Soto for 850k as well. What a day for the Angels. They had a dreadful farm system. It's looking up now.

Good, the Angels are probably the best place for him to go for my sanity. West Coast, American League, non-team I hate.

Did everyone see Buster Onley's snipet that the Braves are looking into the shortstop market?

Found it a bit interesting.

I did. Apparently, we are in the market for a UTIL that can play SS, and not an everyday SS.

Makes one think that they will probably roll with Camargo at 3B for the time being.
