They still forfeit their 2nd round pick... Maybe the supplemental pick they got from the Dodgers/Marlins trade, but I'm not sure about that one. At any rate, with the team still focused on building the farm system they probably value those picks more than what Weiters offers.

It would be the supplemental pick I'm guessing.

MLB Trade Rumors predicted the Braves would sign Clippard for 3 years $18M. They also said the Braves could be in the Austin Jackson market.

On my. MLB the show franchise I'm currently doing I signed Tyler Clippard for 1 year at $6.5M yeah it was a little steep, only wanted to go to $5.5M at the most but really needed that arm. Plus I could afford it since my 2015 Braves had just won the World Series.

Multi year deals for relievers are sucker plays, and I don't know why we'd want Austin Jackson when we have the same player in Cameron Maybin. If we want to improve outfield defense (and we should), we should trade Markakis and not play Olivera.

Hart and Coppy speaking with media. They havent gave up on Olivera at 3B but hope he shows enough to be in LF Opening Day. They expect to add a RP but not for a high price. Grilli and Withrow will be ready for Spring but Shae Simmons may need longer. They insist Maybin is in the 2016 plan and not on the block. Minor still hasnt been able to throw off a mound and may not before the Braves have to decide whether to tender a contract.

Shame how Minor's career has been nagged by injuries thus far. I liked the kid but you can't pay someone several million to sit on the bench
