    But MadBum, Grandal, Moose is fine as well. Plenty of options to mix and match in that price range. You just have to get two offensive players if you’re not resigning JD.

    I’d do that. It’d be fun not knowing which guy would win the mvp every year

    I wouldn't hate making Chirinos our top target. Strike early.

    Sign him, Donaldson, Wheeler or Bumgarner. Then you can look for another vet starter on the cheap or take a gamble on a guy like Wood. We should be able to afford that.

    Wish we would bring cervelli back. He's way better than flow. Head injuries are certainly an issue though.

    I think this is the year we finally make a blockbuster offseason trade because to my knowledge the Marlins don’t have anyone worth acquiring

    I don’t understand the collusion talk. All AA said was that they had a sense of what other teams were going to do.

    Frank Clark is reaching big here and it’s not a good look for him. As if players don’t talk all the time. Silly hill for him to die on.

    Tony Clark has done more to set the players back than any casual conversation AA has had about other teams' offseason plans.

    If we sign Bumgarner, (1) it’ll be a great replacement for Sheriff McCann, and (2) I say we nickname him Johnny Sac

    Believe a Cubs blog suggested Bryant for Fried last week. We'd have to have an extension in place for to do that imo.

    AA: If you are the Braves would you rather sign Donaldson for 3 years or trade something like Fried and Wright for Kris Bryant?
    Keith Law: I’m a big Fried booster so if that’s the requirement, I’d probably pay Donaldson. If they could trade Wright and two other pitchers below Fried, sure.

    I'm good with making one trade for a position player or Kluber. Grandal for c. Moose or jd or goat/riley at 3b. Fa or trade for of. Duvall, kakes, acuna, I like our pen. Sign a lower level FA pitcher like wood, madbun, camels, etc.

    I would be pissed if we traded Fried for just about anyone with only a year left. And Betts and Bryant ain't doing a sign and trade.

    With the Acuna and Albies deals, our team deserves a free agent of betts, cole, rendon, etc

    I agree but I don't really think Liberty Media feels that way. I would love to snag a big FA like Betts or Cole but I would be shocked if it happened. Furthermore I would be more pissed if we traded someone like Fried for a chance at signing one of those guys a year later. Bryant especially is a Boras guy and there is zero chance he doesn't go into free agency.

    Speculation is that MadBum wants 4/72 and JD wants 4/100 but might settle for 3/75. Seems pretty steep for Donaldson.

    I agree. But if he didn't he may have garnered 3 90 type deal. I think a 2 years for 55 with club option for 20 would suffice

    4 years and that kind of AAV for JD feels like old free agency thinking. With the qualifying offer attached and the way the market is now, I just don’t see it.

    If he wants a 4th year he’d have to take a lower AAV for me. 4/84 or so

    I might would do 4/80. With his injury history then we would be bound to lose at least one season of that
