I agree.
We need as high of a draft pick as possible.

On the other hand, beating Washington warms my heart...lol

From MLB trade rumors,

The Braves have shown a willingness to listen to trade offers on almost anyone, but sources tell Heyman that Freddie Freeman probably isn’t going anywhere. [b]Atlanta is also said to be open to a return for Craig Kimbrel — the initial trade was made for the purpose of shedding Melvin Upton’s contract[/b] — though the ‘pen will receive a boost when Shae Simmons, Jason Grilli and Chris Withrow are healthy.

I think Simmons is as valuable to us as Freeman, I hope the Braves see that too.

Braves sweep dbl header vs Cards, Miller and Wisler pick up the wins. Braves finish 67-95. Let FA begin!

Apparently the Dodgers asked us for Simmons in the Olivera trade. I hope Hart cursed them out.

Braves’ Simmons doesn't win Gold Glove

Braves shortstop Andrelton Simmons’ formidable defense is without peer in the view of many, but for the 2015 season his glove was not officially Gold.

The San Francisco Giants’ Brandon Crawford won the Gold Glove for National League shortstops Tuesday night, to the surprise of many who believed Simmons would collect his third in a row. http://www.ajc.com/news/sports/baseball/braves-simmons-doesnt-win-gold-glove/npKyp/

Absolute travesty. Simmons is twice the defensive player Crawford is, and had a much better defensive season.
