    Furcal on verge of signing with Braves

    Contract agreement expected to be announced on Tuesday

    WTF!!!


    where the hell did this come from... it better not mean Escobar is on the way our for anyone for Oswalt, Grenkie, or Peavy!!!

    Unless he really does agree to go to 2nd and we trade johnson or trade Diaz and put johnson back in LF. That could be interesting...

    #1 Furcal 2B
    #2 Escobar SS
    #3 Johnson LF
    #4 Jones 3B
    #5 Mccann C
    #6 Kochman 1B
    #7 Francouer RF/CF
    #8 RF/CF??? Maybe in house could be Blanco at CF???

    Thats a LOT of speed and 3 good OBP guys at the top.

    Id like a Power hitting guy to slide between Jones and Mccann. lol can manny play center HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

    Good, he was popular in Atlanta. Yea, i hope they don't trade Yunel, but depending on what they get, it could be worth it.

    Escobar to the Royals with who for Grenkie... They don't need OF's and our catching prospect is gone...

    Maybe Morton/campillo + boyer???

    doenst seem great on the Royals pary tho they are getting a VERY good player in Escobar.

    What would the Royals do with Aviles though? Move him to 2nd base?

    2nd base is Aviles more natural position. He's viewed as a 2B first within the organization.
    My runs created per 27 posts (RC/27p) was 12.4 last year. I should've been MVP.

    I don't think the Braves will be willing to offer enough to get Greinke. The asking price seems to be Escobar + three good or better prospects.

    Campillo and Boyer...I don't think so. Reyes and Escobar would be the two mandatory demands from our GM, I believe. Throw in a good OF prospect and another good prospect...that's what Dayton will probably want. I know that seems high...but that's how high we are on Greinke. He has two seasons left of being under control for cheap......that's a pretty big factor....as well as the fact that Greinke is right on the cusp of being one of the top pitchers in the game and has a clean medical history and outstanding mechanics.

    Believe it or not, there are some concerns that Hanson's stuff won't play up as well at the MLB level. Don't know how valid of a concern that might be, but I'd be willing to bet that DM would take that into consideration and would still ask for a little more in return for Zack.

    I believe you Mean Physical medical history because he does/did have mental issues which caused the Royals to demote and then DL him some time back
