Who do we target in the offseason?

CC I think is the most logical choice, but I doubt he wants to come here.

Thoughts?

yeah CC and sheets are the obvious choices, but i doubt we land either....i'll guess we sign 1 maybe 2 SP and a OF, and hopefully resign ohman....SP list isnt that great after CC and sheets, theres lowe, garland, dempster, lohse, pettitte, and penny, which all of those guys are risks for what they'll be wantin....for the OF theres dunn and burrell, they'd be nice but we cant give them a super deal and block heyward....theres also abreu and ibanez but from what i've read they will be resigned....

we have a lot of money to work with but it's hard to predict what will happen....

I don't see Atlanta being as appealing as it once was. It's time for our ownership to bring some big names here and make this organization a winner. CC and Sheets would be nice, but I doubt we can contend with the teams that are willing to pay more, so it's going to be interesting to see how much money we're actually willing to spend.

I expect to see two of our four OF prospects starting for us next year.

So we may just throw tons at CC.
