I thought it was a nice read about the current Braves team, especially the ending, it gave me an idea about who we can trade JJ for. Thoughts?

Braves aren't going to make any move. The GM is a weather man and has predicted 95 wins. The could have got Carlos Quentin, we will discuss more could haves all year. Maybe they do something around deadline during season.

The Braves are rightfully waiting to see how this team performs before selling low on Prado and Jurrjens. I don't understand the desire to trade them considering both are at their lowest values that they've been at since entering the big leagues. Might as well hold onto what we got and make a move mid-year like last year with Michael Bourn, if Prado proves to be merely a utility guy.

The Braves are wrongfully not doing anything but selling wolf tickets. Typical Atlanta management that prompts empty seats and no confidence in its franchises

You can thank the organization for their value being so low. It happens when you openly try an trade them to multiple teams. Teams are low balling us and will continue to do so now.
