Kotsay isn't worth one of those two let alone both. Awful for Atlanta.

QFT. And didn't Kotsay just come off a sub .600 OPS season. A lot of people are expecting Schafer to be the next Colby Rasmus (an all-time great). The Cardinals just got David Freese for Jim Edmonds who is better than Kotsay and they both had 8M on their final year.

Well as bad as the bullpen was last year,it's not a bad chance to see if he can help,still would have liked to see us get a young CF,or SS,but we still have plenty to trade.

When Mark is healthy he is an outstanding player. He was hurt basically all of last year.

No he's not and if he was healthy he still wouldn't be worth either of those players.

The trade was put on there to see what the Braves fans where willing to trade,as an A's fan I feel two of our biggest needs are CF,and SS,so I started with those players to see what Braves fans would reply with,and now a trade with both teams happend and I'm happen with Devine,so why keep this going? I thought this is what this board was created for to act like GM's throw a trade out there and fans of those teams reply with offers from there,and if it wasnt my bad.
