2014 MLB Wheelings & Dealings

Same for Angels fans with Trout.

still predicting him and Bryce don't sign anything past their arbitration years and end up making one of the biggest winters in baseball history.

come on Trout...come to the boys in Blue.

Boras is Harper's agent so the only way I see him signing an extension is if he gets something similar to Elvis Andrus' contract which lets Andrus opt out after a certain period.

Braves re-sign Freeman to an 8 year/$125 million contract according to sources.

Also avoid arbitration with Jason Heyward by signing him to a 2 year/$13.5 million contract.

guess you take the money in your youth. He'll be able to get another big deal when this one is up.

but Freeman is worth more than that.

[TyCobb]

Yeah, and he's still improving. Kimbrel next?

[ATL Boy]

Yeah, and he's still improving. Kimbrel next?

Sadly no, arbitration is all but guaranteed for Kimbrel and I think we'll have to trade him in a year or two no matter who the arbitrator rules in favor of.

Braves did however just ink Julio Teheran to a 6 year deal worth $32.4 million.

I've never been so happy to be wrong.

Braves are looking to be very good for a very long time. I honestly can't think of a spot on the field that they have a glaring weakness at... besides BJ Upton.

Braves add Andrelton Simmons to the list of re-signed players. 7 years/$58 mil for the Gold Glover.

[Quake Griffin]

Gotta admit.

The Braves are doing well with these deals.
best defensive SS in the game locked up for a little over 8 million per.

[Da Schwab]

I'm still trying to figure out how Homer Bailey got $105 mil from the Reds. That deal seriously blows my mind.

[Quake Griffin]

Los Angeles?

call us Little Havana.
Cubanos everywhere.
