Braves trade Ledezma & Startup to SD for Royce Ring

[bravesatl]

it's basically just startup for ring, since we designated ledezma for assignment....not sure how i feel about this trade because idk much about ring

ring will pitch in AAA

Ring was a quality member of the bullpen for San Diego. Not an overwhelming good trade, but it does give Atlanta another lefty at their disposal. Real good value too for just giving up startup and ledezma.

he'll take over mahay's spot next year i'd say....

Royce Ring needs to receive some consistency, so give him the innings, and he's going to perform rather well. I like the trade and we add another lefty, nice job JS.

I really wonder what McBride did to get shipped off to Detroit...it had to be something because he was fairly effective...especially in the years prior to this year. Oh well...just another pitcher tossed aside. JS hasn't missed many times...so I guess we gotta trust him.
