One hell of a good looking line up if this deal goes through. Can't wait to see what Simmons can do in a full season.

My doctor told me I needed to stop masturbating.  I asked him why, and he said, "because I'm trying to examine you."

Sad that we lost Prado though... One of the best players on the team.  :(

Redskins cornerback DeAngelo Hall said, "Guys don't mind hitting Michael Vick in the open field, but when you see Cam, you have to think about how you're going to tackle him. He's like a big tight end coming at you."

Congrats. Maybe the Braves will get up by 10 games this year in their division instead of just 7 before choking and not making the playoffs!

Wasn't expecting to see Prado moved.  One of the best all around players in the game.  Not sure if that was a wise move.  Having said that, I have no clue what Prado's contract situation was.  He may have been coming up on a contract year and they knew they'd have to open up the check book so they wanted to get something for him.  Just guessing.  Hate that he's gone.

And...
"The Braves' proposed package would include shortstop prospect Nick Ahmed, according to a source. Foxsports.com reported power-hitting 26-year-old Evan Gattis, a catcher-turned-outfielder, could also be in the deal, and while Atlanta wants to keep right-hander J.R. Graham, a source said his inclusion could be the key to getting the deal done.
Teheran, who the teams consider the centerpiece of the deal, is a 22-year-old who struggled last season at Triple-A and in the major leagues after blazing through the Braves' farm system. Entering the 2012 season, many considered him the best right-handed pitching prospect in the game."

He had one year left and was reported to want around 12 mil.
I think Upton has three years left. Plus we just picked up his brother too.

Five statements of WISDOM
1. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity, by legislating the wealth out of prosperity.
2. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.
3. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.
4. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.
5. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friends, is the beginning of the end of any nation.
